Chelsea Fancast

Absolutely mental – Everton v Chelsea had a ring of the old skool football match about it in a 9 goal thriller. It could and perhaps should have been all over after 3 minutes as Chelsea roared in to a 2-0 lead. An excellent Everton side just wouldn’t give up, and gave us a good game, but like the fit bird in the nightclub, Chelsea always stayed tantalizingly out of reach. What a game, what a result and what a statement to make. No other sides will put six past Everton at Goodison this season. On the show tonight we’ll be having a look at Ross’ player ratings for the Everton game and discussing one of the most mental games I have ever seen. We also have the Fannies this week for the Everton game where we will be awarding our MOTM, COTM, Celery and Guinness moments. Later in the show we have a chat with Sunday Telegraph Football Correspondent Jason Burt about Chelsea’s transfer business this summer and the impact of Financial Fair Play. We also discuss Chelsea’s Champions’ League draw and we be say...

Nothing quite like being back at home and a top day was had by all before and after with quite a few clearly lacking match fitness in the drinking stakes. Thanks to the Finborough Arms for looking after us so well pre-match. As for the match it was definitely a game of two halves as a determined Leicester side proved hard to break down and were a threat on the break. It looked very much like so many games last season until a Jose rollicking at half time clearly woke Chelsea up and it was pretty much one way traffic for the rest of the game as we had the foxes in the run, as Costa and Hazard made sure of the result in a 2-0 win. On the show tonight we’ll be having a look at Ross’ player ratings for the Leicester game and discussing lazy players, a game of two halves and the Return of the Drog. We also have the Fannies this week for the Leicester game where we will be awarding our MOTM, COTM, Celery and Guinness moments.

It’s back – the thing you have been waiting for since the last kick of the 2013/14 Premier League season. No more pre-season, no more desperately seeking transfer rumours. The most overhyped, bloated, self-publicising and self-opinionated thing in football is back. No, not the Premier League – The Chelsea FanCast!!! Top performance by a new-ish look Chelsea in the grim North last night. Always a potentially tricky match first up, and a banana skin looked on the cards after they went 1-0 down, but thereafter it was all Chelsea as Mourinho seems to have found the balls that were missing from the side last season. A great debut from Fabregas and a debut goal for Costa, but does Courtois selection mean the end for Chelsea legend Petr Cech? On the show tonight we’ll be having a look at Ross’ player ratings for the Burnley game and discussing the impact Costa and Fabregas will have in the Chelsea side and does the performance last night justify Chelsea as title favourites. We’ll also be asking if Courtois...
