We’re closing on a significant milestone in the Loan Report as six goals this past week too us to 92 for the season overall, edging ever-closer to the century mark. Ahead of schedule by comparison to the 2013-14 season, when that year’s Loan Army notched a remarkable 125 goals, it promises to be a very interesting couple of months as this season’s vintage go about their business. Headliners The first…
Chelsea’s Under-18s made it a hat-trick of Southern section league titles on Saturday morning as they came away from Leicester City with a 3-0 win.

The goals continue to flow steadily for the Chelsea Loan Army, with another four this week taking us to a total of 86 for the season and maintaining the streak of having at least one in every full week of the 2016-17 so far. We begin with a record-breaking familiar face. Headliners Tammy Abraham’s 16th league goal – his 19th in all competitions – might have arrived rather fortuitously but…
Chelsea’s Under-18s moved to within a win of securing a third consecutive Southern section title on Saturday morning after defeating second-placed Reading 2-0 at Hogwood Park.

Chelsea booked their place in the last eight of the FA Youth Cup on Wednesday evening with a comfortable 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday at Aldershot.

One way or another, all roads eventually seem to lead to Vitesse as far as Chelsea’s loan army goes, and our four headliners this week each have connections with Chelsea’s Dutch affiliate. We begin, appropriately, in Arnhem. Headliners It’s been one of the most positive weeks for the club in a long, long time. On Wednesday night they saw off Eredivisie leaders Feyenoord 2-0 in the Dutch Cup Quarter Finals…
Chelsea’s Under-18s warmed up for their midweek FA Youth Cup tie against Sheffield Wednesday with a 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur at Cobham on Saturday.

They were however made to…
The Chelsea Pitch Owners 2017 Annual General Meeting took place in the Drake Suite at Stamford Bridge stadium today, with a significant turnout of shareholders attending in person. This is perhaps unsurprising given the agenda included a crucial item of business at Resolution 9 which, if voted through, would enable the Directors to approach the owner and propose an extension of the current lease. Chairman Charles Rose declared the meeting…
We’re back up to full speed on the loan front this week with the last of those having had winter breaks now returning to action, but it’s Izzy Brown who continued the streak of us having at least one loanee score in every full week of the club season so far.
