It’s a drum I will continue to bang. Mix youth with experience, and you are giving yourself a MUCH better chance of success and not having to wait years for it to come. I believe if Chelsea had done this at the start of their youth project, then we would be playing Champions League football … Read more
Chelsea’s journey through the 2024/25 Premier League season has been marred by inconsistency and underwhelming performances, leaving fans and pundits alike searching for answers. According to former Chelsea star Mario Melchiot, the root of the club’s struggles lies in a lack of form among key players and significant injuries that have disrupted the team’s rhythm … Read more
One of many Chelsea fans biggest issues with the club right now is the sporting directors and their inexperience. They don’t have any top level experience being a director of football, they lack experience building a squad, and they have very little transfer negotiating experience. Yet here they are, now in full power of building … Read more
Estevao Willian is a superb player and one that I will always applaud the Chelsea decision makers and scouts for spotting and getting a deal done early doors before other big clubs came in. His talent is immense, he has the X-factor, and he can get to world beater level. Of course he can be … Read more
It seems like just yesterday that we were watching Enzo Maresca’s first games as Chelsea manager, wondering what a new coach would bring in terms of style and changes to last season.

I mean, I can’t see many of the players not listening to him!! But for many of the things he is apparently bringing, would it not just be better … Read more
No, it’s not up to me to tell you who was available and who we could have signed. I don’t get paid a stupid amount of money to find them and negotiate to sign them, the so-called ‘experts’ do. The minute someone tries to say ‘but nobody was available in January’ it honestly makes me … Read more
The Blues have been busy in the transfer market, but one signing that’s got people talking is Mathis Amougou. The 19-year-old midfielder from AS Saint-Étienne is a name fans might not know yet, but many believe he’s certainly one to watch. He’s got technical skill, tactical awareness, and a contract that shows Chelsea is betting … Read more
I conducted some polls across hundreds of Chelsea fans in our Blues community over at Si Phillips Talks Chelsea this week. The poll results are in people, and it’s not looking good at all for Behdad Eghbali/Clearlake, and the Sporting Directors. In the entire time of their ownership so far, after doing many polls, I … Read more
