Match13 Feb 2027

Moisés Caicedo wins the derby for Chelsea

Derby days make names, and Moisés Caicedo made his against Arsenal. 1‑0, bragging rights secured, and one half of town will be tired of hearing about him by Tuesday.

Market15 Feb 2027

Terms done: Jesse Derry is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Barnet waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Chelsea is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Loan watch15 Feb 2027

Datro Fofana keeps scoring at RC Strasbourg

26 appearances away from home and 20 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

Market15 Feb 2027

Emiliano Martínez raises the bar for Chelsea

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Chelsea heard it as anything else.

Market15 Feb 2027

Marco Palestra has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Chelsea they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Moisés Caicedo settles the derby

Beat anybody else and it is three points. Beat them, with his name on it, and it is a year of bragging rights for Chelsea and a story that will outlast his contract.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Words exchanged at Chelsea

Cole Palmer and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad15 Feb 2027

A row about effort at Chelsea

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Danny Welbeck was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Loan watch15 Feb 2027

11 goals on loan for Shumaira Mheuka

23 appearances at Bloemfontein Celtic and the goals keep coming. Chelsea are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Chelsea rebuffed over Exequiel Palacios

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Ipswich Town have kept their man, and Chelsea go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market1 Feb 2027

Not going: David Ward stays at Chelsea

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Harrogate Town had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Market1 Feb 2027

Cole Palmer wants more than Chelsea are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Boardroom1 Feb 2027

Window shuts: 4 in, 5 out at Chelsea

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 4 arrived, 5 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market1 Feb 2027

Chelsea turn down Oxford United for Marco Palestra

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Player ratings1 Feb 2027

João Pedro beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 23. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad1 Feb 2027

Moisés Caicedo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad1 Feb 2027

A falling-out at Chelsea

João Pedro and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Market1 Feb 2027

Eyes on Jesse Derry again

The phone has started ringing about Jesse Derry again, and this time the name on the line is Barnet. Chelsea are listening politely and promising nothing.

Morgan Rogers runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 30. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Both of them Moisés Caicedo's — 8.25

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.25, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Moisés Caicedo wants more than Chelsea are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Cole Palmer in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Chelsea this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match7 Nov 2026

6 unbeaten for Chelsea

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation Chelsea did not have in the autumn.

The terraces9 Nov 2026

Chelsea supporters have found a favourite in Jamie Gittens

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Jamie Gittens has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match7 Nov 2026

Moisés Caicedo sends Chelsea past Leeds United

It finished 2‑0, and it was Moisés Caicedo’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Chelsea.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

A satisfied Benjamin Pearson

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑0, Benjamin Pearson could afford to be generous.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Malo Gusto has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Chelsea will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.
