From exclusive interviews to special features, it’s been a bumper December on the Chelsea Official App and website.
So as you sit down to relax from cooking or eating all that Christmas turkey, have a look at what is behind each door and be sure to share your favourites with friends and family!
Apparently there was just one element missing in Chelsea’s setup last season, and Lukaku seems to have more than just filled it. Now that’s a complete team and probably can win the Premier League. Defenders in the EPL havent had to deal with an elite back to goal striker in a while.
It was a wonderfully crafted goal, too, with Lukaku showcasing everything he has to offer this team in the blink of an eye. Mateo Kovacic fed him on the edge of the box, back to goal, occupying Arsenal’s central defenders. He laid the ball back to Kovacic, who picked out the unmarked James with an incisive lofted pass to his right.
Meanwhile Lukaku had comfortably brushed off Mari and burst into the six-yard box, where he couldn’t miss James’s inviting centre. Immediately the away end serenaded their new man!
Lukaku so nearly had his second and our third with a quarter-of-an-hour remaining, only to be denied by a stunning point-blank Leno save, which tipped his header from Mount’s cross onto the crosser. Big Rom couldn’t believe it!
Reece James has praised Romelu Lukaku for ‘bullying’ Arsenal’s players in Chelsea’s 2-0 victory at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
The Blues got their Premier League campaign off to a winning start with goals from Marcos Alonso, Christian Pulisic and Trevor Chalobah sealing a 3-0 win over their London rivals at Stamford Bridge.
And having seen his Palace side comprehensively beaten, Arsenal legend Vieira believes Chelsea must be considered one of the favourites.
Alonso broke the deadlock inside half an hour with a customary bending free-kick into the top corner, while Pulisic doubled the advantage before half-time by pouncing on a spilled goalkeeper parry in the box.
Carlo Ancelotti rates Chelsea FC’s start to life under Frank Lampard since his appointment at Stamford Bridge
Ancelotti led Chelsea FC to the Premier League title and FA Cup during his time in charge of the west London side.
And the Everton boss has now admitted that he has been highly impressed by the way Lampard has begun life in charge at the west London club.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard lamented the absence of wingers Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech that left the Premier League club bereft of creativity in Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at Everton.
Moroccan Ziyech missed the trip to Goodison Park due to a hamstring injury he sustained in the 3-1 victory against Leeds United this month, while American Pulisic was left out of the side as a precaution.
Welcome back, Eden: Hazard & a goal to remind us how f*cking good he is back with wonder goal.
Think back to watching Eden Hazard at Chelsea and what do you see?
That outrageously smooth way he would glide past defenders, perhaps? Or what about the way he could protect a ball with his monumental arse? Maybe you think back to one of the many, many, many times he made Phil Jones look like he was playing with his hands and feet the wrong way around.
We’ve never tried to hide our love of Hazard – even going as far as describing his season playing alongside Joe Cole and Dimitri Payet as our wet dream – so his debut season at Real Madrid made us feel incredibly sad.
The Belgium international himself described 2019-20 as “the worst season of my career” after fitness issues restricted him to just 14 La Liga starts, in which he scored a solitary goal.
After another untimely knock ruled Hazard out of the start of 2020-21, the 29-year-old made his first start of the campaign in Real Madrid’s La Liga clash with Huesca on Saturday.
A ridiculous 392 days had passed since his only previous goal for Los Blancos, a strike which arrived at a time when a global pandemic was still a dystopian nightmare rather than a grim reality.
But with 39 minutes on the clock and the scores still locked, Hazard suddenly resembled his former self, turning on the ball once again with the protection of his sturdy backside before rifling a 25-yard thunderbastard into the corner of the net.
Plenty of people were enjoying the prospect of being able to write off Eden Hazard as yet another mega-money flop. The knives might be out, but as Hazard proved with his goal against Huesca, you’re going to need a lot more than a knife against a master gunslinger.
