It seems that having let Carlo Cudicini go to Spurs on a free, Chelsea are on the verge of bringing in a loan keeper. According to AC Milan keeper Marco Storari’s agent, this should be a done deal by the end of today and will see us bring in some competition for Hilario as our [...]
John Terry returns for tonight’s game at home to Boro and unsurprisingly, Carvalho misses out. What is it with them two this season, have they got some kind of phobia around playing together or what? Where once we might have had an invincible partnership in our central defence, we now seem to have shifts on [...]

John Obi Mikel has been a dick, no arguments there. And the sort of publicity he’s attracted with his drink-driving charge, Chelsea could definitely live without. I mean, it was inevitable the press would have a field day really – Premier League player, match day, 5.30 in the morning, what the bloody hell did he [...]

Venue: Stamford Bridge Date: Wednesday, 28 January Kick-off: 19.45 GMT There’s always an added edge for me when we play Boro, largely because I don’t like them. Old grudges die hard and I’ve never forgiven them for the 1987-8 season play-offs. Needless to say then, I enjoyed thumping them 5-0 at The Riverside earlier this [...]

Chelsea might have missed out on signing Royston Drenthe in the past but recent reports suggest we might have another crack at getting his signature in the summer. Drenthe went to the Bernabeu in August 2007 and although he initially did well at Real Madrid, he didn’t seem to figure too highly in the plans [...]

Despite Claudio Pizarro’s agent initially rubbishing rumours during the summer that the striker would be going anywhere, as we all know, he did eventually go to Werder Bremen on loan. The Peru international never got his act together at Chelsea since joining us on a free transfer in 2007, although seems to be doing better [...]

January’s contenders for the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month Award have been announced and Chelsea’s Frank Lampard is deservedly in the running. Lampard, who is currently stepping up as captain in the absence of the injured John Terry, has definitely been leading by example. First, scoring a late winner in our fight back against [...]

Well, the transfer speculation over one of our players came to an end today, with the news that Carlo Cudicini has completed a move to Spurs. Carlo Cudicini had been with us since 1999, initially on loan from Castel di Sangro and having seen his potential, we signed him on a permanent deal in 2000 [...]
