The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Thursday 12th March 2026!

Morning all,

Hope you’re having a good week so far as we head towards the end of it.

Chelsea were in Champions League action in Paris last night for our first leg tie against PSG. We were in the game until 75 minutes when Filip Jorgensen completely imploded and handed the game to PSG. We well and truly threw it away.

You can get my full reactions, debrief, ratings, and conclusion here.

Round up all of your Chelsea news in general leading up to the game from across the last 24 hours in the same place here.

I wrote a few articles in the build up to the PSG game that will still be relevant despite that game passing, because we play them again next week, over the two legs!

Claude Makelele sent a warning to us all ahead of playing PSG, and he is a man who is connected well to both clubs and knows both clubs very well. See his quotes here.

Some added motivation Chelsea’s players need for the PSG tie is seeing what Jamie Carragher said before the games. He wrote Chelsea off pretty much. So we should’ve been giving everything to prove him wrong once again. Words here.

There was some noise about PSG speaking with Enzo Fernandez’ reps before the game, and let’s face it, we all know why that was ‘leaked’ at that moment. Again, it should be used as motivation for Enzo and Chelsea. Words here.

See you all on the next live blog from around 8.45am today, where we can all reflect on the game.

Peace, Si.
