Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Keeps Disappearing
It was bound to be a tough away visit for Chelsea at Swansea; a week of thinking about referees and racism wasn’t helpful preparation. Not being an aggressive, physical side, like the ones that make the Welsh team shake in its boots, was going to be another problem. Having Fernando Torres reverting back to last season’s form and confidence levels is more of the same.

Mark Clattenburg was Bad way Before Chelsea vs Manchester United
Whether Mark Clattenburg used racist language against Chelsea players remains to be seen, or at least the FA version of what happened into those events. What is certain is that the 37 year old referee made a mess of things in favor of Manchester United, and not for the first time.

Chelsea FC – The Problems Beyond Juan Mata & Eden Hazard
The easy thing for Chelsea would be to simply blame the referee, and think to themselves that Juan Mata and Eden Hazard being brilliant would have been enough to beat Manchester United. But despite the official complaints for racism against Mark Clattenburg, Chelsea have their own problems.

Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Nowhere to be Seen
It’s not fair to put the problems of a side during a loss to an underrated side like Shakhtar on one player but Chelsea continue to play a striker-less football style while Fernando Torres is on the pitch, but doing nothing, once again, to remind us of that.

Chelsea FC – Getting Frank Lampard Back in Business
It wasn’t really a question of who plays for Chelsea against Nordsjælland, a club that’s probably a bit out of its league in their first Champions League campaign, so putting Frank Lampard in the lineup, despite his poor form to start the season, made sense and paid off for Roberto Di Matteo in the harder-than-the-scoreline-suggests 4-0 win.

Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Finds Scoring Touch
There were many things to be happy about for Chelsea after their 2-1 win, as slight underdogs, at the Emirates against Arsenal, but having Fernando Torres finally back on the score-sheet in another so-so performance from him and his team was the best news they could have asked for.

Juan Mata Wins Big London Derby (Arsenal vs Chelsea)
Arsenal came in as the favorites to this match, but Chelsea, with an efficient, patient an intelligent display gave Arsene Wenger’s men their first loss of the season, as Fernando Torres found his scoring touch once again, Juan Mata scored the winner, both aided by the help of a terrible Laurent Koscielny.

Premier League – Arsenal vs Chelsea Predictions
Chelsea might be the team leading the league, but they don’t seem to be impressing anyone with their ability. The wins are still coming, winning 13 of 15 possible points so far. Everyone is complimenting Arsenal for both their offense and defense, but they’ve won only two matches so far this season.

Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Looking Bad Again
A new season, and the gamble to make Fernando Torres the only true striker in the squad isn’t exactly paying off for Chelsea, despite collecting another win without playing too well. He has scored two league goals, but he’s back to the old depressed and frustrated look, while Di Matteo tries to finally get the attacking midfield going.

Chelsea FC – Frank Lampard Shouldn’t Be Starting
A boring 0-0 draw between Chelsea (dropping their first points this season) peaked before it ever started, with the hand shake that never happened, while Chelsea, with its mega-millions team found it hard to gain control of the action with their lackluster midfield, and another example of how old and past his prime Frank Lampard is these days.
