The Blue Crew

And another one! We're back, this time for a double recording session along with the episode 50 tier list special. Here, we took a look back at Timo Werner's dramatic performance against West Ham, the result and what it means and we also previewed the huuuuuge Champions League clash on Tuesday.

To celebrate 50 episodes of the Blue Crew Podcast, we delve into three tier lists: Chelsea home kits of the Roman Abramovich era, this season's squad and Chelsea icons! We hope you enjoy it!

The boys talk about their feelings towards Chelsea's ESL venture and quick departure as well as a quick review of the Brighton game and a preview of the West Ham game.

With Tom unavailable to host this week, OJ takes it upon himself to carry on his legacy with usual co-host Luka and they talk about the loss/win against Porto as well as looking ahead to the UCL semi final against Real Madrid!

It's another happy pod as we looked back at the stunning first half display that set up a 4-1 win over Crystal Palace. We spoke about the resurgence of Kai Havertz, Callum Hudson-Odoi's attacking output, who should play centre back against Porto and discussed the remaining Champions League ties.

We're back again! Not in the studio but we couldn't not join together as Chelsea beat Porto 2-0 to put one foot in the Champions League semi-finals. We discussed the game, where we still fall short, the form of Timo Werner and Kai Havertz and answer your questions!

Episode 45 is here and this week, we discuss the Sheffield United victory, whether Kovacic and Mount can be considered world class and also our chances of winning a trophy this season!!

In this Episode, the boys watch the live UCL draw to see who our quarter final and potential semi final opponents are! We also look at the incredible performance from Wednesday night against Atletico Madrid and give our thoughts on Chelsea's roadmap to the end of the season!

In our new episode, we're joined by our good friend and Arsenal fan Matt Key as we discuss the Leeds result, playing players in the right position and how we look in attack and how we can improve going forward. We also answer a couple of questions posed to us including which Chelsea player would make the best Jedi!

On today's episode, we discuss whether Declan Rice would be more important to Chelsea than Erling Haaland, our defensive and midfield options in the long term and we review our amazing wins against Liverpool and Everton!

We're back again as we prepare for a double episode week! Here we discussed the attacking shortcomings as Luka went on a heated rant about our out of form strikers, we also debated the possibility of a formation change and how best to prepare for the Liverpool game. There was also room for a lot of praise towards Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and Mateo Kovacic. 

We couldn't not record after that huge away win against Atletico Madrid! We dived in with a grin on our faces to discuss the brilliance of Olivier Giroud, the surprising grit from Andreas Christensen and the anger and hustle that we loved from Antonio Rudiger plus much more from a great win!

Another victory podcast! We discussed our comfortable 2-0 victory over Newcastle and how Timo Werner has found his goalscoring touch. We also touched on Kepa's future at the club, how Thomas Tuchel could line-up next season and why our style of football now isn't reflective of Tuchel as a whole.

We're back and yet to record an episode after a loss under Thomas Tuchel. Here we covered the fortunes of Mateo Kovacic, Jorginho, Timo Werner and Olivier Giroud. We also went in deep on how Tuchel continues to get the best out of Mason Mount and where the Englishman should fit in under Gareth Southgate.

We are back and it only took Thomas Tuchel 2 games to get his first win. We discussed the back to back clean sheets, Marcos Alonso's resurgence, the use of Kovacic and Jorginho together and also how good Hudson-Odoi has been!

The boys are back but this time with on a sour note. The future of Frank Lampard at Chelsea is unclear and the pressure was once again cranked up as the Blue's slumped to a 2-0 defeat away at Leicester City. This was a passionate, emotional episode which covered all the ins and outs of Frank Lampard right now.

Two wins in a row means a happy episode as everyone is bouncing and buzzing off the back of three Premier League points. Here we discussed Frank Lampard's starting lineup, why Billy Gilmour isn't playing, what happened to Callum Hudson-Odoi, the future of 4-4-2 and also signing Erling Haaland!

Finally we can review a game after a win! Here we dissected the main talking points from our 4-0 win against Morecambe, including Billy Gilmour and his best position, where N'Golo Kante plays when Gilmour is fit, if Callum Hudson-Odoi is our best winger and what we thought of the strong line up in the cup.

We're back after *another* loss and this time we're lucky enough to host Jam from the Chelsea Social. He spoke us through the game, where it went wrong, what the biggest problems are right now and why we should still be backing Frank!

We're back for another disappointing episode. After a defeat to Arsenal and a frustrating draw to Aston Villa Chelsea now have 1 win in 5 and have dropped off massively in performance. We discussed what's continuing to go wrong for the team, where we need to improve and also how quickly we must bounce back!

Another day and another sad podcast as Tom and Luka discuss the recent drop in form and what is going wrong. We cover the best positions for Werner and Havertz, where Lampard has made mistakes and what we would change moving forward!

It's a somber tone from the three of us today after a horrible 1-0 away loss at Goodison Park. In the episode we covered what happened and what went wrong for Chelsea and why it's so important to bounce straight back against Wolves.

We're back after another brilliant game. Here we reviewed our 3-1 win over Leeds, looked forward to the title race and also the immense depth that our youth system gives us.

Today we covered three matches including 4 goals and none conceded for Chelsea. We touched on the balance in midfield and how to best utilise N'Golo Kante, Jorginho and Matteo Kovacic whilst also trying to work out where the future lies for Fikayo Tomori and Callum Hudson-Odoi. Finally, we ended with a debate regarding the need to buy Declan Rice and whether it would be better to use Ethan Ampadu instead.

After a much better we are back to discuss a comprehensive 4-0 win against Crystal Palace. We also cover the role and future of Jorginho in detail, where Timo Werner needs to play, what it feels like to have a good left-back and who we would sign for Chelsea if it was a FIFA career mode!
