It was never, ever in doubt...Matt Davies-Adams has got The Athletic's Luke Bosher and Liam Twomey alongside him to wrap up the 1-0 final day victory over Nottingham Forest to seal Chelsea's participation in next season's Champions League.Liam was on hand to soak up the atmosphere at the final whistle - and was in the room as Enzo Maresca silenced the haters with a... kind of F-bomb?!! We reflect on their defensive steeliness, ability to get over the line and dig deep and banish their poor away form to get back at Europe's top table after a two-year absence. Then, it's all eyes on Wrocław as we preview Wednesday evening's Europa Conference League final showdown with Real Betis. Who makes the starting XI given there's been so much chop and change between the league and cup sides? And how important is it for the Blues to finish the season on a high by adding this trophy to their cabinet?We'll be back with our post-final round up on Thursday!

Who will Enzo Maresca trust up top? And what are the ramifications if they fall short? Plus, we've got a quick look ahead to next week's Conference League final, following the midweek pre-match media day which saw the boss express his frustration at the scheduling and confirm that Filip Jörgensen WILL start in goal.And of course - we've got a quiz with a Forest flavour.We'll be back on Monday to hopefully be celebrating Chelsea's safe passage into next season's Champions League AND a look ahead to Wednesday's final.HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Luke Bosher, Simon Johnson and Nick MillerPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.

Surely they have to beat *this* Man United team?!Matt Davies-Adams, Liam Twomey and Sam Parkin assemble to look ahead to a huge Friday night and Sunday afternoon for Chelsea Football Club.We begin under the lights at Stamford Bridge, where at 20:15 on Friday evening the Blues host a Manchester United side who sit 16th in the table, haven't won a game in the Premier League since the 16th March, haven't won back-to-back league games all season AND are averaging less than a point a game under manager Ruben Amorim. So - why are we still not 100% sure that Enzo Maresca's side will be able to come away with the win? And who's going to fill the void left behind by Nicholas Jackson? The Athletic's United writer Carl Anka is on hand to give us the inside scoop on the opponents and their struggles. Then it's all about CFCW - looking to wrap up the domestic treble on Sunday afternoon when they take on Manchester United at Wembley. Carl sticks around to help us preview that one too as Sonia Bompastor's side look to sign off from this season in style.

On the 10th of March, Chelsea Football Club celebrated its 120th anniversary. It's fair to say from 1905 to 2025 there's been chaos, controversy, jubilation, heartache, success, failure and everything in between.   On this episode, we follow the club into the modern day and discuss the seismic changes that have taken place behind the scenes since the takeover by BlueCo in 2022.  Matt Davies-Adams has got Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey alongside him to analyse the current state of the men's team - which it's fair to say is going through a bit of a tumultuous time!  Then, we're joined by The Athletic's Dan Sheldon, who's recently investigated some of the concerns around the ‘CFC LDN' rebrand and whether there are wider connotations…  We had to finish on a high note, so Jessy Parker Humphreys is with us to explain how despite it all - the women's team have maintained their standards of excellence (Man City 1st leg aside!) and continued to win trophies while the men's team have struggled to compete.  Read Simon's piece on Chelsea's rich history before 2003 Read Liam's piece on Chelsea's most important match from each decade Back on Monday to look ahead to the return to Premier League action with the small matter of Tottenham coming to Stamford Bridge - plus we'll check in on the fortunes of CFCW!

It's fair to say from 1905 to 2025 there's been chaos, controversy, jubilation, heartache, success, failure and everything in between.  On this episode, we go back to July 1st, 2003 - and the day the course of the club's history changed forever when Roman Abramovich became owner. Matt Davies-Adams has got The Athletic's Dom Fifield and Simon Johnson alongside him to reminisce about the glory days, the José years - and the experience of covering the club during that period. And what was it like to be a fan growing up in that era? Younger fans are often tarred with a glory hunter brush, but Luke Bosher explains what it was like to be introduced to the club when they were serial winners and at the height of their powers. Plus, Liam Twomey's back to help us finish off our overview of the defining fixtures from each decade, from the 1980s through to the modern day. Read Simon's piece on Chelsea's rich history before 2003 Read Liam's piece on Chelsea's most important match from each decadeHOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Simon Johnson, Liam Twomey, Luke Bosher & Dom Fifield PRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.
