Chelsea has turned the swag on of late (no souljaboytellem), wouldn’t you say? Since the defeat to Aston Villa (five matches): 19 goals scored, 2 conceded. The real test, however, comes today when the reigning champions — three times running — visit Stamford Bridge. Manchester United travel to the Bridge for a 1 v. 2 [...]

New Atletico manager Quique Flores remembers the Blue machine — well, Michael Essien — all too well. Furthermore, a win will take us through to the group stages. Oh, and Didier Drogba is back to terrorize Europe.

This man may be the fulcrum in 09-10. More on that later…
Lead Up: Chelsea v Bolton

So it’s Bolton at the Reebok on Saturday.
I think we can safely say we’re not going to see a repeat of the midweek thrashing we threw at Wanderers in the Carling Cup. Wednesday’s match was the third consecutive demolition at Stamford Bridge — 13 goals scored, none conceded. The Blues are in a rich vein, [...]

Time to get back to work.
The international break is finally over — congratulations, by the way, to Ghana for becoming the first African nation to win a major competition with a dramatic penalty shootout triumph over Brazil in the U-20 World Cup — and Chelsea open the Premier League slate this weekend at Aston Villa.

Chelsea v Liverpool: The lead up

There was a time when one would hear Liverpool and Chelsea in the same sentence, immediately projectile vomit and then proceed on with their merry afternoon.
That doesn’t seem to be the case nowadays, does it? Not after last season, anyway.

It’s time to get back to work. And back to winning.
Carlo Ancelotti’s first real test as Chelsea manager arrives today when the Blues resume Group D play in the Champions League against Cyprus’ APOEL Nicosia.
This will be Chelsea’s — more importantly CA’s — first match since the 3-1 defeat away to Wigan on Saturday, the [...]

Man, this week has flown by. Carlo, be sure to make it nine wins out of nine before it ends, though.
