Olivier Giroud is the latest former Chelsea player to talk common sense – opinion – Talk Chelsea

This list is so long that I actually forgot the total number of names added to it. All I know at this point is that Olivier Giroud has now joined a VERY long list that includes John Terry, John Obi Mikel, Frank Lampard, Pat Neven and Joe Cole, to name a few. I’m pretty sure […]

Building the perfect Chelsea manager with key elements – opinion – Talk Chelsea

Clearly, all the talk surrounding Enzo Maresca lately has got us all thinking. Who would we even bring in if Maresca were to go? Who is even available? I’m not going to talk about names in this, but maybe you can mention a number of names in the comments that might fit this. But for […]

Chelsea’s most important player should not be a debate – opinion – Talk Chelsea

Of course, if you want to have a good podcast, you should always have good debates and use topics that can divide and raise opinions. The same goes for written content, I think. But there is one thing that sometimes irritates me a bit, and that is when a discussion arises about who is the […]

Enzo Maresca needs to use squad depth against Wolves tonight – opinion – Talk to Chelsea

Enzo Maresca’s no-nonsense attitude suits Chelsea much better – opinion – Talk Chelsea

Enzo Maresca shows that he can be brave and courageous to make some HUGE changes to the game when things aren’t going well. I like that about him. He makes killer decisions and isn’t afraid to take players off the field who he believes aren’t doing enough. This may seem harsh to some, but it […]

Chelsea won’t look back after selling Noni Madueke – opinion – Talk Chelsea

We all know that Noni Madueke is a decent player and can be very good on his day. I also think he is a very inconsistent player and while he can score a goal from nothing, he is certainly not a world beater. But that’s not the reason why we shouldn’t regret selling him, it […]

It’s easy to see why Reece James needed rest during this international break – opinion – Talk Chelsea

Reece James has finally made it through a run of Chelsea games without getting injured, something we’ve all been wanting for a while. His career has been plagued by injuries, but ultimately we are now seeing a period where he remains fit and plays regularly. I would also like to compliment Enzo Maresca and the […]

The problems of Chelsea are unfortunately still the same as for the time – opinion – Talk Chelsea

Last week I wrote how Enzo Maresca has grown on me, at least in terms of attitude, mentality and how he led himself in public. I currently have no major problems with Maresca, despite what some people may think here. During the weekend I saw a number of strange comments about the Substack app and […]

Chelsea will have a decent season, but there are still some big question marks – opinion – talk Chelsea

I postponed this. But I could not predict where I think Chelsea will end this season without seeing our last team, and now we have it. Today I did an article to assess the Summer Transfer window where you can see a breakdown of the team that we have this season; That is now on […]
