Unfiltered voicenotes on all things Chelsea FC from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand 💙
Eleven games left. No freebies. Crunch time, whether we like it or not. Chris maps out the run-in and what we'll need to do to qualify for the Champions League. Joe jumps in on the bigger question on what matters more - trophies or qualification. We preview Arsenal on Sunday, Palmer looking like he's carrying something, and what the back line can't do at The Emirates. Plus we get the Arsenal perspective on their title challenge, love for buying from Chelsea, and prediction for Sunday's game. Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

We keep shooting ourselves in the foot. Chelsea v Burnley should've been calm, and instead it's another one that leaves you staring at the wall. Sixth red card of the season. Seventeen points dropped from winning positions at home. We get into why we keep losing our heads, how the game swung, and what it says about this team when the pressure's on — even when we're in front.

No midweek Chelsea? What are we to do with ourselves..? This week we go off-script, and Chris and Joe share their Chelsea origin stories. First games, old eras, dads taking you, and that moment it turns into a lifelong problem. We also touch on the Wrexham draw, the club's silence, a bit of transfer noise, and what we want to see against Burnley.

What banana skin? 4-0 in the blizzard and it could've been more. We talk Neto silencing the critics, Delap baking nicely and Hato stepping up. This team just feels different under Rosenior — front foot, no fear, no crab football. Actually fun to watch again. Plus some very important lookalike chat.

How have we not won that game? Chelsea go from 2–0 up and coasting to giving Leeds life with 6 minutes of madness. We look at Santos speeding us up, Joao Pedro looking like a different player, Palmer finally moving like Palmer again… and still that miss at the death. Now it's Hull on Friday. Rotate? Or go again and make a point. Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

...ole ole. Not a classic, but job done and 4/4 for Liam Rosenior in the Premier League. Wolves were hopeless, Chelsea were 3–0 up without breaking sweat and apart from (yet) another goal conceded from a set-piece, it was pretty routine stuff from The Blues. We get into what signs we can see of return of 'cold' Palmer, a refreshing lack of rotation and what we need to see against Leeds on Tuesday night to keep the run going.

Not the result, but plenty in that performance. Chelsea went to Arsenal with a clear game plan, stayed in the tie, and looked in control for most of the night. We get into Liam's setup, the lack of magic in the final third, lazy punditry that completely missed the point, and Havertz's lack of memory or class. Then focus turns to a must-win match at the Molineux against rock bottom Wolves.

Pride of lions, that. From as bad a first-half as we've seen all season, to a night to remember. We get into the changes, the centre-back circus, Enzo Fernandez doing Lampard things in that number 8 shirt and The Bridge rocking once again. We reveal the one big change we've seen under Liam Rosenior and what the key will be to beating Arsenal on Tuesday night.

Napoli hadn't lost at home for 25 games… and we've just rocked up at the Maradona and nicked it. Enzo stays perfect from the spot, Palmer changes the tempo, and João Pedro goes full main character with two massive goals to win it. Not flawless, but who cares. We're into the knockouts and the vibes are back. We talk through Rosenior's in-game changes, preview West Ham, and get into the big one: what's actually our best XI right now? Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

All three goals from Brazil and Argentina, and for once Chelsea put their foot down when it mattered. Estêvão's solo goal is magic, João Pedro bags another important goal, and Enzo sticks away the pen like it's training. We also get into the bits that still aren't right: the early panic at the back, the late wobble (even at 3–0), and why the subs somehow made us look worse against ten men. Then we zoom out. Palmer's 'unhappy' rumours, what Chelsea's actually building right now, the whole trading-model vibe, and the fear every fan's got in the back of their mind… what happens if the top players stop believing in the project? Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

Job done on paper, but this one felt like 90 minutes of pushing treacle uphill. In this episode we get into the same old story: low block, zero urgency, robot football, and fullbacks being treated like they're allergic to the byline. Joe's not having it with the lack of identity, the dull build-up, and the fact we needed a set piece just to breathe. Chris looks at why it might be 'pragmatic for now', and why the winger profiles don't help when there's no overlap and no chaos. We also talk Delap's rough start, whether our set pieces are actually good or just 'eventually one lands', and what the Champions League table now looks like with Napoli away looming. Then it's a trip to Selhurst Park and we bring in a couple of Palace fans to tell us why their season's gone sideways and what Sunday could turn into. Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

It wasn't pretty. At times it was barely watchable. But Chelsea won a football match, and right now that's all that matters. We break down a scrappy 2–0 win over Brentford that could very easily have gone the other way. Big saves from Sanchez, a moment of quality from João Pedro, a cold Palmer penalty, and a whole lot of hanging on in between. There's chat on Tosin, Palmer's fitness, going long from the back, and whether this is the start of learning how to win ugly again. Plus thoughts on January transfers, centre-back links, and what Chelsea actually need right now. Voicenotes on all that and more. _____________________________________ * Support the Show * Write us a 5 star review Follow the show on Instagram Share it with a fellow Chelsea fan _____________________________________ * Meet the Hosts * Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

A semi-final, at home, and we basically handed them the keys. 3–2 makes it look close but it didn't feel like it at times. We get into the Sanchez build-up obsession, the set-piece defending going backwards, and the fact we somehow kept the tie alive thanks to excellent Garnacho's two finishes. Plus a look ahead to what feels like a must-win game against Brentford, and some breaking transfer chat about a centre-back coming in.

The new era starts with a win. Liam Rosenior's first game in charge couldn't have gone much better. Rotated side, clear ideas, and Chelsea in control from the off - even if it was only Charlton. Early signs of intensity, structure, and players actually knowing what they're meant to be doing. We get into the fan protest and the Clearlake noise. Why it's happening, how it looks from the away end, and whether better communication could calm things down. Then it's all eyes on Arsenal. Back three or back four? Who actually plays? And how Rosenior can set Chelsea up to get a result in his first big test.

This one hurt. Properly. We head back from the Cottage with another loss, another red card, and the same old questions screaming at us. Chelsea were on top, playing well… then one moment of madness and it all falls apart again. Joe's raw, furious, and not in the mood to sugarcoat anything — discipline, leadership, player performances, and why this keeps happening every single week. Chris tries to make sense of the chaos, looks at the bigger picture, and asks whether this really was just one stupid decision or something much deeper. Anger, frustration, a bit of hope… and a lot of honesty.

Chelsea give us something to believe in… In this episode, we react to Man City 1–1 Chelsea — a performance that felt bigger than just a point. A bold halftime shift, players responding, and a late equaliser that actually meant something. We praise Calum McFarlane's impact, why the second half mattered, and how this game has shifted the mood around the squad. Then we get into the big talking point: Liam Rosenior. What his appointment says about the club, why it's a huge gamble, and the reasons to remain positive too.

New year, same Chelsea. Chris and Joe jump on an emergency pod after the news drops: Enzo Maresca is out — and it's not even lunchtime on New Year's Day. Where were we when we found out, did we see it coming… and are we actually that upset? We look back on the Maresca era properly — the highs (Barcelona, Arsenal, that Club World Cup) and the big, nagging issues that never went away: the drab football, the constant rotation, the set-piece panic every time the ball goes in our box, and the feeling the players were never fully bought in. Then it's onto the only thing that matters: what happens next. Chelsea say this won't be an interim… so who's the “permanent” answer in January? We talk the early names in the mix — Liam Rosenior, Cesc Fabregas, Filipe Luís, Xavi, Glasner — and what each one would say about the direction of this club (and whether the owners just want a yes man). Plus: the Cole Palmer problem. How do you get him back to looking like himself again — before the season (and maybe worse) starts slipping away? — Support the Show — See more of the show on Instagram Get a Chelsea poster from Graficona And write us a 5 star podcast review — Meet the Hosts — Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

Chelsea draw 2–2 with Bournemouth and somehow we're the ones hanging on. Joe gets into the long throws, the passengers, the half-time hooks, and why defending set pieces now feels like a coin flip we always lose. Then Chris wakes up on New Year's Eve basically hoping it's done - because the football's dull, the management's stubborn, and the “process” is starting to feel like a loop. Plus: who could actually replace Maresca if Chelsea go there.

One of those games you could see coming… and it still hurts. Chris and Joe react straight from Dixon's after Chelsea 1–2 Villa — comfortable for an hour, don't get the second, then it all unravels. We get into the missed chances, the baffling subs (Palmer off…), another costly defensive moment, and that familiar lack of a killer up top. We also talk squad drop-off, the summer business, and whether the blame sits with Maresca or the people building the team. Plus a listener voicenote on Enzo.

Two halves, two different Chelseas. In this episode, we react to Newcastle 2–2 Chelsea — an awful first half, then a proper comeback sparked by a Reece James captain's moment and a class Joao Pedro finish. We get into the sloppy defending, set-piece chaos, the big VAR calls, and why starting games this slowly is becoming a problem. Then it's Maresca's “we need experience” comments again — and what that says about the power dynamic at the club.

Not pretty… but we're in the semis. Chelsea made it hard work at Cardiff with the B-Team out, looked shaky when they levelled, and for a moment it felt like last week all over again. Then Neto and Garnacho showed up and reminded everyone what actual quality looks like. We get into the drop-off after the first 15/16 players, who's just not at the level, and why the rotation is starting to feel like a risk rather than a strength. Plus props for Caicedo doing Caicedo things, and another good night for André Santos. And yeah — Maresca's pressers. What's going on? Who's he clashing with? And is any of this messing with team selection?

Not a game that'll live long in the memory… but we'll take it. Chelsea 2-0 Everton wasn't a classic but after the last few weeks it was exactly what the doctor ordered. Palmer's back, Palmer's scored, and for a brief moment everything felt normal again. We chat through the big bits: Gusto popping up with another one (London buses and all that), why the Fofana–Chalobah partnership is starting to feel like an actual foundation, and Maresca having a bit of a wobble in the post-match press conference. Then it's on to Cardiff in the League Cup — the Kellyman subplot, the danger of a lower-league scrap if we start slow, and the expectation of a heavily rotated XI.

Four games, no wins, and you're left wondering how we've managed to drain all the momentum out of our own season. Chris and Joe break down a night where Chelsea were passive, slow out the blocks again, and never once went for Atalanta's throat — even at 1–0 up and seemingly in control. We get into the patterns creeping back in: sluggish starts, no punch after conceding, and a team that looks comfortable only when the wind's blowing our way. Enzo's legs, Pedro's hold-up play, and Badiashile and Gittens showing exactly how big the quality drop-off is from the first XI. Then it's Maresca. The subs, the constant reshuffling at centre-back, full-backs playing midfield, Tosin reappearing from nowhere, and that uncomfortable feeling of not quite knowing if he's the guy — even after Barcelona. Plus a look ahead to Everton and a December run that could get ugly fast if this wobble isn't snapped.

Another reality check on the south coast. Chelsea huffed and puffed their way to a 0–0 at Bournemouth — and after that Leeds disaster in midweek, it all feels a bit… stuck. We get into the performance, the lack of reaction, and why December and January always seem to turn us into a different team. From Delap's injury and love of a scrap, to Palmer's return, Tosin being bombed out, and what that clean sheet actually tells us about Fofana, Chalobah and Sanchez, we dig into where this squad really is right now. Then the big question: do Chelsea need a proper number nine to take the next step? We chat strikers not taking enough shots, dream £100m signings, the idea of adding some experience up top, and what a genuine title-winning Chelsea squad would actually look like. Plus a look ahead to Atalanta away and the chance to take control of the Champions League group.

From Arsenal pride to Elland Road humiliation in four days. Proper crash back down to earth. In this episode, we pick through that 3–1 defeat at Leeds — from Enzo Maresca's team selection and the cursed centre-back pairing, to a side that looked like it couldn't be bothered from minute one. The 'young team' excuse gets binned as we talk leaders, standards and why some of these lads are on their last warnings. We also get into Maresca's blind spots, the obsession with “red zones”, the ridiculous drop-off from our best XI to the B-team, and what sort of reaction we have to see away at Bournemouth if we're going to trust this project at all.

All square at The Bridge and Chelsea showed some real character. Proper balls. We talk Reece bossing midfield, Caicedo's red and how 10-man Chelsea still went toe-to-toe with the league's top side. Sanchez's resurgence, Marseca's tweaks, and why this can't just be a one-off if we're serious. Then we look ahead to a big midweek trip to Dirty Leeds...!

One of those Bridge nights you don't forget in a hurry. Chelsea didn't just beat Barcelona — they bullied them. We get into Cucurella locking down Lamal, Caicedo and Enzo running the game, and Estevão announcing himself on the biggest stage like it's nothing. Marseca's big-game plan, the atmosphere, and what a win like this really says about where this young side is headed.

Wasn't pretty, wasn't thrilling, but it's exactly the kind of win you want straight after an international break. We chat through the 2–0 at Burnley: slow start, odd-looking XI, then two real moments of quality to get it done. Santos running the game, Pedro Neto everywhere, Delap doing all the hard bits and none of the easy ones, and Tosin still giving everyone mild palpitations. There's talk on three clean sheets in a row, Chelsea maybe – maybe – learning how to manage games, and Maresca's 50th match in charge with the away end properly behind him. And then a look ahead to Barcelona under the lights and Arsenal at the Bridge, with Chelsea quietly putting a little run together while nobody's really talking about us.

International break and no Chelsea to make or break your weekend. In this episode, we dive into your listener questions: who should Chelsea buy in January, and who is the most underrated and most overrated player to ever play for us. We look ahead to the mad run of fixtures to end 2025, try to guess how many points this team has in it, and preview a potentially tough trip to Burnley with a few familiar faces and a lot of miles in the legs from international duty.

That's more like it. A sharp start, a bit of huffing and puffing, then a proper grown-up win. Gusto got his first-ever goal, Estevão lit up the Bridge again, and Garnacho ran the show — direct, fearless, electric. We get into his performance, the Enzo–Caicedo partnership, and what a settled back four could mean for this team. Plus: a word on Delap, some love for Trev, and how far this side could actually go.

Another bipolar Chelsea night in Europe. Chris and Joe get into the tinkering: too many changes, no rhythm, and a centre-back carousel that keeps inviting trouble. Big-picture chat on the Champions League league phase and how this result ramps up the pressure for Barcelona, Atalanta and Napoli. Plus the case for a settled pairing at the back, why Estevão has to start, and how much this team misses Cole Palmer's coldness. Then it's Wolves at the Bridge — caretaker bounce or routine home win? What we need: less roulette, more certainty, three points.

A proper derby job. Chelsea went to Three Point Lane and looked… mature. Controlled, compact, and nasty in all the right ways. Could've been four or five, but one was enough. Chris and Joe get into the game plan: the set-piece tweaks, Sanchez owning his box, and a back four that finally looked like a unit. Caicedo hunted the opener like a man possessed, Enzo ran the tempo, and João Pedro delivered the moment — plus a handful he'll want back. Spurs were miles off it, but this was about Chelsea acting like a grown-up side in a big game. Attention turns to Europe and then Wolves at the Bridge — Six wins in seven, time to keep the standards and avoid more Sunderland's.

Pure carnage at Molineux — all swagger, then squeaky bums. Chelsea blitz to a 3–0 lead with Andrey Santos running the show, Gittens electric with two assists and an outrageous Estevão chip — then spend the second half surviving the storm. Set pieces, long throws, panic in the box… and discipline out the window again with Delap's double yellow. Jorgensen jittery, game management missing, but the Blues scrape through. Attention turns to Spurs: Frank's set-piece threat vs our soft spot, why Santos and Estevão should start, and how Sanchez can help cut the chaos.

Chelsea somehow manage to lose at home to Sunderland. Garnacho scores early, but it's the same old story: no control, no ideas against the low block, and then a joke of a goal to throw it away late. Chris and Joe get into the defending on the winner, the lack of urgency after going ahead, and why Stamford Bridge never feels safe at 1–0. There's talk on Neto not squaring it, João Pedro going missing, Guiu struggling to get a touch, and how much this team clearly needs Cole Palmer. Then it's Wolves in the cup, Spurs on the weekend, and the bigger question: are we actually just in another scrap for top four?

About as close to a perfect Champions League night as you're going to get. Chelsea smash Ajax 5–1, three different teenagers on the scoresheet, and plenty of players rested up too. Chris and Joe take it all in: the early red card and instant opener, Enzo and Estêvão sharing pens like it's five-a-side, Mark G getting off the mark. We get into Estêvão's swagger, Gittens growing in confidence, and why this squad suddenly feels deep instead of thin. There's love for Reggie Walsh - 17 going on 27 - and a bit less love for Tosin after that clumsy penalty. We talk rotation, rest, and why nights like this matter if you're serious about going deep in Europe. Then it's on to Sunderland at the weekend. Are Chelsea finally settling into themselves? Is Marisca quietly cooking? And are we… starting to trust this team again?

Chelsea win 3–0 at the City Ground with a big second half performance. This one belonged to Cobham. Reece James, on his 200th appearance, led by example - bombing on, scoring, and setting the tone. And 19-year-old Josh Acheampong marked his first Chelsea goal with a header right in front of the away end. Two of our own, both massive. We get into the injuries, why Josh should keep his place, and the discipline stuff that's still costing us. Clean sheet probably flatters us, but three away and a bit of swagger back.

International break but no let-up: Chris and Joe are in the studio asking the big one - what actually makes football fun? We get into pragmatism vs purity, Mourinho's Anfield masterclass, sterile possession, and why a bit of sh*thousery can be glorious when it wins you points. There's a loan watch, too. Strasbourg's youngsters catching the eye, Anselmino's stop-start, the Jackson question, and a look at Giovanni Quenda lighting it up before his summer arrival — the Estevão pathway all over again? Chris also takes the goal-music debate to the club — emails, replies, guidelines, and a plea to keep the celebration organic (or at least delayed). Fans are split; we chew through both sides. Then it's Forest away on Saturday lunchtime: first game back, a rare post-break advantage for Chelsea, and the need to back up Liverpool with a grown-up three points.

Bedlam at the Bridge. A last-gasp winner from Estevão and the limbs in the Matthew Harding were pure, unfiltered joy. Chris and Joe talk through the dread at that patched-up back line to praise for a front-foot Chelsea who pressed, believed and went again. Maresca's touchline sprint felt like a line in the sand; the manager out-thought Liverpool and wore it. We get into Enzo's orchestration, Reece stepping in at centre-back to calm the storm, and why we looked like a proper team again. Big-picture chat too: belief before the international break, injured players celebrating together, and the need to turn this into a run when we're back.

After yet another red card collapse, they pick apart the tactical decisions, defensive chaos, and worrying lack of leadership that defined the defeat.There's Roland's take on why Chelsea's captaincy problem is bigger than just Reece James, plus reflections on the growing pressure on Maresca ahead of Benfica and Liverpool.It's raw, frustrated, and a little bit sad - but we're here, as always, trying to make sense of where Chelsea go from here.— Support the Show —See more of the show on InstagramGet a Chelsea poster from GraficonaAnd write us a 5 star podcast review — Meet the Hosts — Chris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

A win, but not much else to shout about.Chris and Joe look back on a cup tie that felt more like survival than progress, with Chelsea scraping past Lincoln after another chaotic start.They talk Jørgensen's horror show in goal, Fofana's worrying rustiness, and Enzo's heavy-legged display. Plus, early verdicts on Hato, Gittens, and Garnacho as the new boys get their chance.There's also reflection on the sponsor saga, how the Cole Palmer injury could reshape Chelsea's season.Finally, they pick their XI for Brighton and look at how we can beat the Seagulls.

Well, it was fun for 5 minutes wasn't it... In this episode, we try to make sense of a sodden Old Trafford night that started with a rash Sanchez red and spiralled from there. We talk Maresca's call to go ultra-defensive, the subs that sucked out our outlet, and the set-piece chaos that gifted United control. We also zoom out: what this says about Chelsea's game management, why a top goalkeeper and centre-back still feel non-negotiable, and what needs to change before Lincoln and Brighton.
