This is the big one, my friends.
FA Cup Final. At Wembley. Against Everton.
The final match of the season. The final match of Guus Hiddink’s initial tenure with the Blues.
What else do you need? How about a trophy presentation following the final whistle? Me likes.
Don’t engrave Chelsea’s name on that piece of hardware just yet, however.
Everton [...]

“Back in March, just one month after I started working at Chelsea, supporters from the Fans’ Forum came to visit us at Cobham.
I can remember the supporters telling me then that although they knew we were trying hard to win the Premier League and the Champions League, we should not [...]

Last year, at this stage of the FA Cup, Barnsley took Avram Grant’s men to task. This season, Coventry attempts to the same.
Saturday, the Sky Blues host Chelsea at Ricoh Arena in the quarterfinals of the world’s oldest cup competition. A shock result is certainly not out of the question, either.

Then caretaker manager Ray Wilkins did something Luiz Felipe Scolari failed to do in seven months [...]

So the Hiddink era begins. Well, not really.
Ray Wilkins — or Mouthpiece as I like to refer to him as — will likely be stirring the pot today as Chelsea visit Hertfordshire to take on Championship club Watford in the FA Cup’s fifth round. Our new main man, Guus Hiddink, will likely be observing from [...]
FA Cup Draw: Away to Watford

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, [...]

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.
