Things haven’t been tremendously positive on the loan front so far this season and, indeed, quite a few Chelsea youngsters didn’t play a single minute of football this week, but there remains reason to be positive as for the first time in 2014-15 we have multiple goalscorers to kick things off with. Headliners The first of those was Patrick Bamford, who capped a first start for Middlesbrough with his first…
The transfer deadline saw Chelsea’s loanee tally reach a grand total of 26 and, whilst a handful of them are yet to feature for their new clubs as a result of the international break, it was still the busiest weekend of loanwatch action thus far in this fledgling 2014-15 season. We kick off with a goal scored by a player who is very much at a make-or-break time in his…
It took a little longer than it did last season but we’re finally off the mark in the goalscoring column for the 2014-15 season on the loanwatch front. Thorgan Hazard got things underway in the Europa League in midweek before Stipe Perica weighed in for NAC Breda on Sunday. Headlines Thorgan hasn’t yet started for Borussia Mönchengladbach yet but has impressed as a substitute and following a lively cameo last…
La Liga and the Bundesliga kicked off this weekend, bringing six Chelsea loanees into their first action of the 2014-15 season. The Blues have eighteen players out on loan at this current point in time and whilst some of them are yet to get started competitively, business is picking up. Headliners We’re still without a goalscorer through three weeks of football but Lucas Piazon made a fairly decent impact on…
We’re back for another busy season for the Loan Report here at TheChels.net, and with no fewer than sixteen Chelsea players having already departed on temporary moves, there’s plenty to cover already. We were given over 120 goals during 2013-14 and a goalscoring streak that covered every week of the campaign until the very last one came up empty and whilst we’re not going to reach those heights again, it’ll…
Late June during a World Cup summer might seem an unusual time to be catching up on Chelsea loanees but the 2013-14 club season in Spain extended well into the summer as two Blues youngsters went in search of promotion. The playoffs in both the Segunda Division and the remarkably unforgiving Segunda B structure called for a long and tiring schedule, but one which ultimately successful in both cases. For…

More than thirty Chelsea players combined for upwards of forty different loan moves during the 2013-14 season. Naturally, they combined to register a series of landmarks that are unlikely to be surpassed in the near future if at all. At least one of them scored for 37 consecutive weeks of the club campaign, falling short of an unbroken streak at the final hurdle. Twenty-one of them found the back of…
