LMAO!! Chelsea Score Owngoal By Selling Arsenal Onesie In Official Club Shop...


Chelsea’s online shop in America has scored a spectacular own goal this week – after stocking an Arsenal onesie in its collection of official Blues gear.
The store was opened to provide Chelsea’s north American fans with ‘official merchandise from the Europa League winners’, but a cheeky Arsenal number also crept in.
For the reasonable price of $16.00 (£12.26), hard-core Chelsea fans were offered the chance to purchase the onesie; that comes exclusively for babies.
The embarrassing listing of the item was made worse by the description of the product – that pays homage to Arsenal’s previous trophy haul.
‘They have won 13 First Division and Premier League titles and 10 FA Cups. They are your Gunners. Show your supporter in this cool, unique tee,’ it reads.
Blues supporters don’t appear to have jumped at the chance to buy the item, although perhaps offering their child the chance to throw up on an Arsenal crest, instead of a Chelsea one, could appeal.
Chelsea eventually pulled the item after three days of it being online, but did not offer an explanation.

Roman Abramovich To Select Next Chelsea Boss Himself After Regretting Mike Emenalo's Decision To Hire Benitez!!!



The Blues owner regrets employing the ex-Liverpool boss as interim manager after being advised by technical director Michael Emenalo, who pushed hard for the Spaniard to be appointed.

Billionaire Abramovich had misgivings about the suitability of Benitez, who is hugely unpopular with Blues fans from his time on charge of Liverpool, but he was won over by Emenalo.

His plan was to appoint former Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola in the summer.

But Guardiola’s snub this week in favour of joining German giants Bayern Munich has left Chelsea and Abramovich with egg on their face.

The move for Benitez has backfired with inconsistent Chelsea’s hit-and-miss form this season.

A return for Jose Mourinho to Stamford Bridge is now looking more and more likely this summer, with Borussia Dortmund’s highly-rated boss Jurgen Klopp seemingly his closest rival.

Swansea’s Michael Laudrup and Argentine Diego Simeone have also been touted as possible new managers, but they are not believed to be serious contenders.

John Terry On His Way Out Of Chelsea?!

JOHN TERRY will not be offered a new contract by angry Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.

The Blues skipper is set to become the latest player to feel the wrath of the Russian billionaire, who has still not forgiven him, Frank Lampard and former star Didier Drogba for failing to back ex-boss Andre Villas-Boas.

Villas-Boas was one of the few managers Abramovich took a leading personal role in recruiting before the start of last season.

But after failing to win over the big names at the club, the Portuguese coach was sacked in March and has since taken charge at Tottenham.

CHELSEA’S tactics for Club World Cup bid have been revealed — after they were found in a pile of rubbish...





























And no wonder the Blues failed to spot match-winner Paolo Guerrero after Rafa Benitez got his name wrong.
The top-secret crib sheets were discovered in Chelsea's dressing room in Yokohama by a reporter from Brazilian newspaper O Globo.
They warned the Blues to be alert to counter-attacks against Corinthians and instructed players to charge up the field after clearing defensive corners.
Branislav Ivanovic was ordered to pick up the Brazilians’ No9 — who was wrongly identified as “Guerro”.
Instead, GUERRERO nodded home a second-half header to trash Benitez’s dream of landing a first trophy as Chelsea boss.

Liverpool: Daniel Sturridge to have medical on Sunday


Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge is due to have a medical at Liverpool on Sunday ahead of a £12m transfer.
Liverpool have already put a deal in place with Chelsea for the 23-year-old England international.
However, any transfer is unlikely to be confirmed until the opening of the January transfer window.
The former Manchester City striker has only made seven league appearances for Chelsea this season, scoring one league goal against Tottenham in October.
His last league appearance for the Blues was in the 2-1 defeat by West Bromwich Albion on 17 November.
Sturridge has not featured since Rafael Benitez arrived at Stamford Bridge, due to a hamstring injury.

Drogba gives out commemorative rings worth £800,000 to former Chelsea team mates..,

When you're big, you're Didier Drogba...

Didier Drogba last night went to the extraordinary length of presenting his Chelsea team-mates from last season’s Champions League final victory with individual rings to commemorate the triumph – at what is thought to be a cost of around £800,000 to the player.
Drogba hosted a dinner for the players as well as staff who won the trophy – although the recently sacked manager Roberto Di Matteo was unable to attend – and presented them with the rings as a surprise. The timing of the dinner came just 24 hours after the last games in this year's Champions League group stage, beyond which Chelsea failed to progress in the competition for the first time.
Fernando Torres was one of a group of players who played last season not present at the event at Wyndham Grand Chelsea Harbour, a hotel in London, including Petr Cech and Juan Mata. The team have another game tomorrow against Sunderland, and travel today.
"I wanted to give something to the team so we can all look back and remember that achievement," said Drogba, before singling out John Terry, in attendance, for special praise. "You're my hero and everyone at Chelsea loves you," he added.
Drogba has returned to London after the end of the Chinese Super League and is expected to train with Chelsea over the winter to keep in shape for the African Nations Cup in next month, when he will captain Ivory Coast.

Chelsea captain John Terry's knee injury will keep him out of the Club World Cup in Japan...


The Champions League winners will miss 11 days of domestic action to represent Europe in the competition next week.
Terry was expected to be out for three weeks after the injury in mid November.
But Blues manager Rafael Bentiez said: "He wanted to go and to help, but it's better he stays here. The inflammation during the flight will not be the best thing for him so he will not travel."
Defender Terry, 31, damaged knee ligaments in the 1-1 draw with Liverpool.
Benitez's side play Sunderland on Saturday before travelling to Japan for the competition featuring champions from all six Fifa confederations.
Chelsea enter in the semi-finals where they will face the Mexican side Monterrey or Korean team Ulsan Hyundai on 13 December.

Referee Mark Clattenburg cleared by FA but charges Mikel...




The English Football Association has cleared referee Mark Clattenburg of using "inappropriate language" towards Chelsea midfielder John Mikel Obi.
But Mikel, 25, has been charged by the FA with misconduct following his involvement in the alleged incident.
The Blues had claimed Clattenburg directed racial language at Mikel in their home defeat by Manchester United.
Clattenburg said it was "truly frightening" to have faced the prospect that his career might be over.
Following the match at Stamford Bridge on 28 October, the FA interviewed Clattenburg, Mikel and several other Blues players before reaching a decision.
"It is alleged that in or around the match officials' changing room at the end of the fixture, Mikel used threatening and/or abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour," an FA statement read.
Mikel has until Friday, 30 November to respond to the charge
