"Some Chelsea fans should be ashamed that you were defending the single manager in history who couldn't use Messi well."

20 goals and assist in 26 league games.

5 goals in 7 UCL games

That’s like 25g/a in 33 games in all comps that season, won the league won the French super cup but yeah. He couldn’t use Messi well.

It’s projected that we are finishing this season with equal or less than our points tally from the season that we won only our last five games (as per your logic). Improvement! 🔥🔥🔥

Chelsea have six teenage signings in the bag for the future for around £150m.

Joining in 2025: Estevao, Paez, Sarr, Penders and now Essugo.
Joining in 2026: Quenda.

Quenda

Quenda is unlike anything we have in our books.

It doesn't matter the area of the pitch. He will turn you and cook you.

Noni strength is work rate and speed. With spaces to run to Noni is great. In short space, Noni borders armature with sometimes poor control and inability to make the right decision on the right move to create opportunities.

Neto strength is to stretch defences with runs. With wide spaces, Neto is a beast that would reap anyone and everyone with his runs. As he rightly admitted himself recently, his weakness is in tight spaces.

From the above analysis it's easier to understand why we struggle against low blocks. We are in dire need of someone like Eden Hazard who can fast and skillfully try to wiggle through these short spaces and create something out of nothing. Somebody who can forcefully try and break defensive shapes

While Quenda is nothing near the land of "Eden", he looks more hazard-ous in tight spaces than both the two and more threatening in finding the next space towards the goal

The boy turns are lightning and unpredictable, and his dribbles are assorted with both physical and technical strength. While Estevao is a sheer magician with the feet, This one will embrace and adapt faster to the physical demands of the EPL than Estevao because of his physical body strength.

To me I think it's a shame he will be loaned out next season. It could have been a plus to the team to have him here fighting for us since it's no open secret that the right wing is one area we run short. His versatility could have really helped there.

Club Leon have been kicked out of the Club World Cup due to multi-club ownership rules. They were due to be in Chelsea's group at the tournament in the United States.

Former Chelsea player Filipe Luís has made a strong start to his managerial career after taking his first coaching job in September 2024.

He retired in 2023 after four years with Flamengo and quickly transitioned to management. Since then, he has led the Brazilian club to three trophies, losing only one of his first 27 games.

As Flamengo’s head coach, he won his first trophy just two months into the job, guiding them to a Copa do Brasil victory. He continued his success by winning the Supercopa do Brasil.

His third trophy came after he defeated Fluminense 2-1 over two legs to win the Rio de Janeiro state championship.

Chelsea win the Premier League U15 International Tournament, winning every single game over 2 days.

Leicester, Liverpool, Athletic Club, Arsenal and Man City all beaten.

Chelsea to Sancho lmao

Paying 5 million to send him back is great for us because Ratcliffe said united is paying most of his wages, so we should just think of the 5 million as us paying all of his wages.

Jadon Sancho hasn’t scored in his last 18 games for Chelsea and has only provided one assist.

He moved from Manchester to London last summer in a deal that included an option for Chelsea to buy him for up to £25 million. However, the agreement also allows Chelsea to pay a set fee to cancel the full transfer.

So far, there’s no sign that Chelsea plans to do that. Despite his struggles in attack, Sancho has been praised for his professionalism, effort in training, and hard work on and off the ball during games.

This is just to keep Sancho hoping he can play his way into a contract. It's basically over for him here after this season.

If the thought of being sent back to Man United can’t motivate him, nothing will.

🚨The winners of FIFA Club World Cup will earn up to $125million (£97m) in prize money – the biggest given for a football tournament over a seven-game format. Confirmation of my exclusive that European clubs will get more than those from other associations just for participation

Baller. 🔥

Who do you think has played the most minutes for Chelsea this season?

The answer is Caicedo (2,546 minutes)

Not only has Caicedo started all 29 league matches, but Maresca has only substituted the 23-year-old Ecuador international five times.

Chelsea have moved to add some cover for Caicedo with Dario Essugo set to sign from Sporting CP in the summer but until then, expect him to play whenever he is fit.

Liam Delap fits the profile of being a Chelsea player in terms of how this squad has been built. It is understood Chelsea have been studying Delap’s style of play and physicality, and there is belief that he has the attributes to make the step up to a top club.
