Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Blaming the Wrong People
It hasn’t been easy for Fernando Torres since becoming a Chelsea player. Names circulating about him, as the team seems to be on a constant lookout for someone who’ll replace their very expensive failure. The Spaniard isn’t giving up, but he’s clearly not too pleased with himself or with what the club is doing in order to help him score in the rate he used to for his previous teams, which seems like something that happened in a different era, to a different player.

Chelsea FC – Eden Hazard & Juan Mata are the Present & Future
They talk of a magical trio, but in the truth it’s just two players – Eden Hazard and Juan Mata that are truly special. Oscar still has some consistency and physicality issued to tend to before he can be considered as good, giving Chelsea a truly unique threesome that plays behind a striker, Fernando Torres, that can’t seem to provide the right kind of outlet to his talented teammates.

When your strikers, Fernando Torres in this case, can only score when there’s a full moon outside, you have to rely on other players to deliver the good. While Chelsea usually rely on Frank Lampard or the creativity of Juan Mata and Eden Hazard to provide goals, for once it was about the centre backs, as David Luiz and John Terry came through with the finishing touch.

Chelsea FC – Adding Andre Schurrle & Losing Frank Lampard
The 2013 summer is going to be another one of change, expensive signings and big names leaving, with Chelsea hoping to finally sign Andre Schurrle from Leverkusen, 12 months too late in the eyes of some, while the departure of Frank Lampard, possibly to the Los Angeles Galaxy, becomes more and more imminent.

Chelsea FC – Juan Mata & Eden Hazard Need Better Midfielders
If it wasn’t for Petr Cech, Chelsea wouldn’t have just left Wembley as the losing team but also as a humiliated one. All the talent in the world, mostly presented with the likes of Juan Mata and Eden Hazard, can’t make up for the shambles of a defensive midfield currently deployed at Chelsea, giving them less than the chance they deserve when they’re up against a quality side.

FA Cup – Chelsea vs Manchester City Predictions
With the financial prizes of the Champions League, it’s hard to avoid the fact that the FA Cup has lost a bit of its charm and prestige in recent seasons, but it doesn’t mean teams without a chance of winning the league don’t dream of winning it. Chelsea, still not completely certain of their top 4 finish, and quite successful at the competition in recent years, hope that their record this season against Manchester City doesn’t come into play when the teams meet for the fourth time this season.
