This match needs no introduction. No preview. No nothing.
It’s Liverpool. Chelsea. Anfield. Title aspirations on the line.
Whoever loses — if, in fact, somebody does lose — will be out of the race completely. It’s big. Wait, it’s more than big. What’s more than big? Huge.
I’ll be liveblogging the event for The Score so follow me [...]

Who said we wouldn’t sign anyone during the January window?
Chelsea have signed Turkish youth international Gökhan Töre from Bayer Levekusen. The 17-year-old attacking midfielder signed a three-and-a-half year contract with the Blues.
Personally, I remember very little about this kid. What I do recall is that he had put in some pristine performances during the U-17 [...]
Who is Marco Storari and why are we signing him?

We let Carlo Cudicini go. OK, that’s fine.
But we go right out and sign a 32-year-old on-loan backup? I’m confused.
Chelsea have wasted little time in tying up a replacement for Carlo, eyeing up Marco Storari, currently on loan from AC Milan at Fiorentina. First, Storari doesn’t even start for Fiorentina. Second, if he’s not good [...]
Poll: Cuffs or no Cuffs

Our favorite Ivorians seem to have gotten themselves in a wee spot of bother. The two celebrated the first of Kalou’s two goals last night against Middlesbrough with so-called “handcuff” gestures to the crowd. Being that the two hail from the Ivory Coast, most are drawing the conclusion that this little gesture is a reference [...]
Rant Box: Chelsea v Boro

This, my friends, is the definition of a trap game.
Five days from a most massive match at Anfield against Liverpool, our Chelsea welcomes Middlesbrough to Stamford Bridge. Of course, it’s Boro who have traditionally played us well.
This will be no easy task. Especially with the way we’re playing. We conceded from a set piece for, [...]
The “friendly” takeover

We now have more news on the alleged takeover headed by Dr Sulaiman al Fahim.
The Guardian spoke with one of the investors, German Holger Heims, who said that the proposal would include six to seven investors and would not be of the hostile variety.
“We have no intention of launching a hostile takeover. This is only [...]

One of the last remnants of the pre-Roman era of Chelsea has finally moved on.
Goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini agreed a move today to Tottenham on a free transfer. It was a move that many of us assumed would happen each season for the past three. However, it never did — as Carlo’s loyatly to the Blues [...]
FA Cup Draw: Away to Watford
By: Jack | 1 Comment
The FA Cup fifth-round draw was just completed and Chelsea have drawn an away tie with Championship side Watford. Not bad I’d say.
This tie will have some ties, too. “Would you like to tie me up with your ties, Ty?”
What am I talking about? Watford boss Brendan Rodgers will be hosting his former club Chelsea, [...]
Rant Box: Chelsea v Ipswich

It’s another cup tie. Against lower league competition.
Should we expect a long night. I say nay.
Chelsea has finally turned the corner. That’s right, I said it. We’re about to run riot on these tricks. Word, son. Word.
Whoa. I think I was just possessed by the ghost of Kool Moe Dee. Wait, that guy’s still alive. [...]
