Premier League: Chelsea 1 - 0 Middlesbrough
Match reports Daily Telegraph, John Ley: “If Chelsea win the Premier League title they should dismantle the goal at the Shed End of Stamford Bridge and resurrect it in their club museum, alongside Jose Mourinho’s raincoat and Peter Osgood’s shirt, as a standing memorial to the day it earned them three of their most valuable points.” The [...]
Premier League: Chelsea 1 - 0 Reading
Match reports The Times, Matt Hughes: “Grant’s team continued their dogged pursuit of Manchester United and Arsenal with a ninth successive victory in all competitions that equals the club record.

League Cup: Everton 0 - 1 Chelsea (1 - 3 agg)
Match reports Daily Telegraph, Tim Rich: “Avram Grant’s attempt to convince the world that Chelsea were not especially bothered by the Carling Cup sounded false from the moment it left his lips. Not since Don Revie constructed his all-white machine at Leeds has there been a club who have set out so remorselessly to win everything. [...]
Premier League: Chelsea 2 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur
Match reports Independent on Sunday, Nick Townsend: “After a match comfortably won with goals in each half, from Juliano Belletti and Wright-Phillips, who is thriving in a more central midfield role, no one should rule out Chelsea’s claim to the championship.” Sunday Telegraph, Patrick Barclay: “In attack … Grant had devised an interesting formation which was almost [...]
League Cup: Chelsea 2 - 1 Everton

Premier League: Blackburn Rovers 0 - 1 Chelsea
Match reports The Times, Matt Hughes: “If he could bring himself to tune into a freezing English winter from the sunshine in Setúbal, even José Mourinho would have been impressed with the resilience that Chelsea showed in holding out for three points against Blackburn Rovers yesterday. However, they will need even more fortitude in the coming [...]
Champions League: Rosenborg 0 - 4 Chelsea
Match reports The Guardian, Dominic Fifield: “The Champions League was supposed to have done away with mismatches like this. Chelsea won Group B at a canter last night, ripping a floundering Rosenborg to shreds and ensuring that, when this competition resumes for the knockout phase, they will be paired with a runner-up rather than a group [...]
Premier League: Derby County 0 - 2 Chelsea
Match reports The Observer, Jamie Jackson: “Chelsea will take the three easy points from this outing against dire opposition, but will be cursing the straight arm that late substitute Michael Essien offered Kenny Miller in added time.

Premier League: Chelsea 1 - 1 Everton
Match reports The Independent, Sam Wallace: “Delivering exciting football, as Avram Grant is discovering, is a splendid idea as long as you make sure your team win the game too.
