Premiership: Chelsea v. Aston Villa
Chelsea meet a resurgent Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge later today. Chelsea have beaten Villa in their last four meetings but Jose Mourinho will not be taking the in-form Midlanders lightly. Martin O’Neill has led Villa to their best Premiership start for five years, and they enter the game as one of only two unbeaten sides in [...]
Champions League: Levski Sofia 1-3 Chelsea
Match reports The Guardian, Jon Brodkin: “Again this was not a spectacular Chelsea performance but Jose Mourinho has made it clear he cares little about that. A first Champions League away victory since November 2005 leaves his squad set fair in Group A with Barcelona next at Stamford Bridge, and they have now won six consecutive [...]
Champions League: Levski Sofia v. Chelsea
Chelsea’s second Champions League Group A game kicks off later this evening against Bulgarian side Levski Sofia. Jose Mourinho said he would be happy with a 1-0 win after Levski coach Stanimir Stoilov compared Chelsea’s win-at-all-costs style of play with Barcelona’s “more attractive football”. “We don’t have a player like Barcelona has, someone to do a trick [...]
Premiership: Fulham 0 - 2 Chelsea
Match reports Sunday Telegraph, Andrew Warshaw: “Chelsea may not be firing on all cylinders quite yet, but even in third gear and without the inspiration of John Terry, ruled out with back spasms, they snuffed out everything their injury-hit nearest rivals could throw at them - then struck late on with a match-winning double blow.” The Observer, [...]
League Cup: Blackburn away

Premiership: Fulham v. Chelsea
Chelsea make the short trip across the west of town this afternoon to face Chris Coleman’s Fulham in what is likely to be a full-blooded affair. Fulham won last season’s corresponding fixture 1-0, Luis Boa Morte scoring the winner after 17 minutes. Chelsea were poor in a match that had everything from a sending off to [...]
Hard drives, hard win, hard cash…
First off, apologies for the lack of activity ’round these parts. Late last Saturday I switched on my PC to post a preview of the Liverpool game only to be presented with an ominous-looking error message. I didn’t panic at first because in recent years I’ve become somewhat obsessive about keeping regular backups of my [...]
Champions League: Chelsea 2-0 Werder Bremen
Match reports The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: “The result has the authentic Chelsea ring to it but there were still false notes. It took the penalty that Michael Ballack converted after 66 minutes for his first goal at the club to dim the brightness of Werder Bremen’s spirit. Only the post prevented Frank Lampard from raising the [...]
Champions League: Chelsea v. Werder Bremen
Chelsea’s Champions League campaign kicks off at Stamford Bridge later this evening with Jose Mourinho dismissing speculation that he might leave Stamford Bridge if Chelsea win the competition. “I did one mistake in Porto, leaving Porto when I was European champion because I could have won the Intercontinental Cup. I couldn’t because I had left,” he [...]
Premiership: Chelsea 2 - 1 Charlton Athletic
Match reports The Observer, Amy Lawrence: “Chelsea confirmed their superiority as Drogba, Lampard and Shevchenko threatened a goalfest. A narrow scoreline it might have been but by half time it was hard to conclude Charlton provided anything more than shooting practice.” Independent on Sunday, Ronald Atkin: “In the end, whistles of relief greeted a close-run thing for [...]
