The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Wednesday 1st October 2025!
Morning all,
Welcome to October, the month of golden leaves on the floor and Witches on broom sticks, sort of…
It’s another big month for Chelsea Football Club as we finished out September playing against Blues legend Jose Mourinho, who is now managing Benfica. Jose was back at The Bridge last night and thankfully he was on the losing side. It was nice to see him back, but even nicer to beat him!
You can get my full match report, debrief, player and manager ratings, and conclusion here as The Blues put in a spirited effort to see off Benfica with a 1-0 win.
I also had a big exclusive article out yesterday and you can tell that the winter is soon approaching, because we have some transfer news back people! Get the full drop and story on Chelsea’s fresh contacts to sign Marc Guehi in January here.
Meanwhile, it was very refreshing to see a journalist write an honest assessment of Chelsea’s issues yesterday. No PR briefing sent to him by the club, just integrity and well-sourced honesty, in my view. Read all about that here.
The Score has his second article in two days for us now and as always, any fan view contribution is welcome and appreciated in this community. You can read how Score says Maresca should be backed and not sacked, here.
As always, in the build up to the game last night I covered every single bit of Chelsea news that was going around across the last 24 hours in the same place here.
I’ll see you all on the next live blog from around 8.45am on the home page!
Peace, Si.
