Chelsea booked their place in the FA Youth Cup Quarter Finals for the seventh year in succession by coming away from AFC Wimbledon’s Cherry Red Records Stadium with a 4-1 win on Tuesday night. The scoreline was a little flattering for a Blues side made to work extremely hard for their reward by. Dons team inspired by wins at Watford and Newcastle get this far and backed by almost 3,500…
The Loan Report exploded into life this weekend with five goals and plenty of sparkling performances to round up for you. Let’s get straight to it. Headliners Andreas Christensen has earned rave reviews so far for his composed, seasoned displays at the heart of the Borussia Mönchengladbach defence since joining on a two-year loan last summer. Goalscoring has however rarely been his forte, with just five goals in his three…
Chelsea’s Under-18s all but secured top spot in the southern section of the Barclays Under-18 Premier League on Saturday after recording a narrow 1-0 victory over Fulham at Cobham. Miro Muheim’s solitary strike means Joe Edwards’ side are now six points clear of Reading in second place and, whilst the Royals have two games remaining to Chelsea’s one, the Blues have a +15 goal difference superiority to effectively claim the…
There were no goals this week on the loan front but there have been a couple of key moves as the January transfer window gets underway, so we’ll dive straight in with a look at those.

They were able to reduce arrears first…
There were no goals in last week’s Loan Report but we’re back with three more from another productive seven days around Europe. Headliners The first of them came from Lucas Piazon on Tuesday night as Reading met Huddersfield in their FA Cup Third Round Replay.

Chelsea’s ruthless dominance of the FA Youth Cup continued unabated on Friday night as they went to Manchester United and ran out 5-1 winners in their Fourth Round clash.

Our last Loan Report had plenty of goals in. This week…not so much, but with the Eredivisie resuming there’s more action to catch up on as 2016 begins to fully roll into action. In the absence of anyone else deserving to take the lead this week, we kick off with Chelsea’s newest loanee.
