Now That Chelsea's Season Is Dead, They Can Focus On Ruining Everyone Else's
The most satisfying moment during José Mourinho’s all-too-short second stint as Chelsea manager had to be after the final whistle of the final league match last season, when everyone at the club finally got to sing and dance alongside the Premier League trophy they’d won in such commanding fashion. ...
Young American Stud Matt Miazga Set To Join Chelsea And Become New King Of English Soccer
Hell yeah, now this is more like it! While it was understandable if disappointing (and disappointing exactly because it was understandable) that Jordan Morris skipped out on the chance to take his talents to the Bundesliga and instead decided to start his pro career in MLS, we are not without hope t...
John Terry Goal In 98th Minute Saves Miracle Point For Chelsea
After Everton took a 3-2 lead over Chelsea in the 90th minute, it looked like the Toffees had their first win at Stamford Bridge since 1994. But it wasn’t to be, as (an offside) John Terry redeemed his earlier own goal and scored in what can only be described as the stoppage time of stoppage time. I...
Wow, Chelsea's Players Really Hated Mourinho, Didn't They?
An ESPN FC postmortem published shortly after José Mourinho finally paid for Chelsea’s debacle of a season with his job included a telling anecdote about the manager’s suspicions of a silent mutiny on the part of his players. In the locker room after the 1-0 loss to Bournemouth, an exasperated Mouri...
Chelsea Conveniently Pile Blame For Their Disastrous Season All On Mourinho
While no one could seriously argue that José Mourinho didn’t earn today’s firing because of his team’s god-awful performances this season, it would be similarly disingenuous to paint the coach himself as the sole cause of this inexplicable confluence of events. The club’s technical director, natural...
Goodbye To José Mourinho, Who Gave Us So Many Hilarious Memories
It wasn’t long enough, Mourinho. Sure, some could’ve maybe predicted your third season with Chelsea would go the way of your previous third seasons and end in acrimony and disillusionment, but no one could’ve foreseen this....

It actually happened. According to the BBC’s Dan Roan, Chelsea have told manager José Mourinho that he has been fired:...
The Premier League's Midtable Revolution Has Begun
At this point in a marvelously topsy-turvy Premier League season, it’s hard to determine which has been the more stunning turn of events: Leicester City’s transformation from basement dweller into table toppers, or Chelsea’s nearly apocalyptic crash. (The answer is definitely Chelsea’s fall, but sti...
José Mourinho Brash, Brutally Honest In Interview After Yet Another Chelsea Loss
All José Mourinho knows about Chelsea’s completely baffling, stunningly terrible season is that it’s not his fault. The bad times rolled on today when league-leading (!!!!!) Leicester City came in and smashed up on the reigning champions, who currently sit one point above the relegation zone (!!!!!)...
Riyad Mahrez And Leicester Continue To Clown On Chelsea And All Of England
This is Leicester’s whole season right here. One of their super duo (this time Riyad Mahrez, though Jamie Vardy has also scored on the day) attempting something outrageous, pulling it off, then strutting over to the corner flag in an almost awed confidence as the reality of this fairytale sinks in....
Diego Costa Screws Up 1-On-1 With Keeper, Chelsea Score Anyway
Yeah, this isn’t how Diego Costa imagined the ball would cross the goal line when he took his shot, but as long as it did, I don’t think he’ll mind too much....
Chelsea Are Just About Dead
So much of being a coach is managing expectations. The best ones consistently set goals that are a finger length or two higher than what can be realistically reached. That demands commitment to the cause. It reminds players that no matter what they’ve achieved so far, there’s always another level th...
Scrappy Underdogs Chelsea Show Heart, But Can't Beat Bournemouth
15th place Chelsea almost scored an upset against fellow lower table side Bournemouth today, but they couldn’t handle Glenn Murray on this corner. They are a mere three points out of the relegation zone, but this ramshackle band of underdogs looks like they’ll be able to stay up and ensure safety. W...
Arsenal Fan Idris Elba Loves Laughing At Sorry-Ass Chelsea As Much As We Do
Idris Elba is from London. Thus, he’s an Arsenal fan. Because his team has been cast over the past decade as The Big Engine That Can’t, he’s had to endure repeated humiliations and ridicule at the hands of the Gunners’ rivals. Now that the shoe’s on the other foot with regards to Chelsea’s God-forsa...
Chelsea Fan Loses Job After Calling Liverpool Fans "Scouse Scum" In Online Interview
Looks like José Mourinho isn’t the only Chelsea fan who’s lost it on camera this season. One Blues fan and former partner at an international law firm had to pay for this man-on-the-street interview, where he rails against “Scouse scum” Liverpool fans for rooting against Mourinho, with his job....
Why Chelsea Should Stick With José Mourinho
This Chelsea season is beginning to feel like that “Sideshow Bob Steps On Rakes For 10 Minutes” video. The first couple self-inflicted thwacks in the face were funny; the next few established the pattern; and when it continued repeating from there it became even more hysterical than ever, leaving yo...
Referee: Irate José Mourinho Cussed Me Out In Dressing Room
Earlier this week, England’s Football Association gave José Mourinho a fine and a one-match ban from the sideline for some sort of behavior that got him sent to the stands during halftime of Chelsea’s 1-2 loss to West Ham. Now we know exactly why: it was because Mourinho freaked the fuck out on the ...
Even The Rubin Kazan Manager Is Burning Chelsea
Chelsea are struggling mightily, in 15th place in the Premier League and beset by infighting and reports that coach José Mourinho is about to be fired. But today they sunk to a new low, seen as such a laughingstock across Europe that even the manager of a mediocre Russian club is ripping on them. ...
Willian's Perfect Free Kick Saves Chelsea's Ass
Man, Willian’s right foot really is about the only way Chelsea can score, huh? After opening their account with an own goal off a deflected cross from, you guessed it, Willian, Chelsea fought back from a late Dynamo equalizer to score the winner in the 83rd minute....
