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 – Juan Mata in the Best Form of his Life
Quality that wasn’t there when Chelsea won their Champions League title last season is here now, in the new faces of Eden Hazard and Oscar, who make life for Juan Mata that much easier, in return playing like the best player in the Premier League over the last few weeks.

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.

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 – Beyond All the Oscar Excitement
For a few minutes, all the problems Chelsea suddenly began having were gone. Oscar scored two goals in the space of two minutes to put his side 2-0 up over Juventus, promising a dream start to their champions league campaign. Problem is, Chelsea weren’t playing Wigan or Reading, but the Italian champions, who showed, once again, the many flaws in Roberto Di Matteo’s side.

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.

Chelsea FC – Radamel Falcao Not Their Biggest Problem
If someone at Chelsea is actually kidding himself by thinking that not signing Radamel Falcao is what caused this debacle in the European Super Cup match he should look onwards, to everything wrong in the middle of the pitch and the defense, again with John Terry but without anyone stepping up to lead the unit […]

Chelsea FC – Eden Hazard & Fernando Torres Combo Looking Better
If there’s one player that has stood out after a week of Premier League football, it’s Eden Hazard of Chelsea with a goal and four assists in his first three matches, involved in pretty much everything good happening on the pitch. Fernando Torres isn’t as influential, but two goals in the first three matches are better than many had hoped for.
