Jose Mourinho allowed himself some time to soak up the adulation yesterday, after he saw his Chelsea team defeat London rivals Tottenham Hotspur and lift the English League Cup. It’s not often that we see Mourinho ‘partying’ with his squad after such emotional triumphs, he usually looks ahead to the next challenge. But the Portuguese […]

Chelsea Football Club will be pretty happy with their transfer dealings this January. Today they waved ‘auf wiedersehen’ to World Cup winner Andre Schurrle and said ‘hola’ to Fiorentina’s wing wizard Juan Cuadrado. Schurrle was a fringe player under Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge.

I heard that Chelsea’s Jose Mourinho had said that Didier Drogba had been Chelsea’s best transfer signing in their history.

So it won’t be an invincible season for Chelsea this time around after all. The slump to Newcastle United showed others in the Premier League that they can be beaten after all. But for me, Jose Mourinho has helped bring on the defeat with a few mistakes. Instead of keeping spirits high at Stamford Bridge […]

This weekend seemed to take us back in time. Goals from Papiss Cisse, Nikica Jelavic and Steven Fletcher made us think we were back in 2012. Manchester United are once again in the ‘Top Four’ and Newcastle United are facing the same relegation fight nightmare they had back in 2009. Chelsea’s start to the campaign […]

This weekend sees Arsenal take on London rivals Chelsea. A lot of the build-up has been focused on former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas, who is now pulling the strings in Chelsea’s midfield. The Spanish international spent eight years with the Gunners before making a move to boyhood club Barcelona. His return to Spain wouldn’t go […]

When Frank Lampard was being introduced as the next Manchester City sub to enter the fray against his old side Chelsea last weekend, I turned to the person I was watching the game with and said ‘Poor Frank, he’s going to score here!’ As both sets of supporters welcomed the former English international midfielder onto […]
