Chelsea may have dropped their first points of the Premier League season at the weekend, but the result will have taken little away from a supremely impressive start to their defence of the Premier League. One man who has been crucial to Carlo Ancelotti’s sides start has been Florent Malouda whose individual performances have very […]

Iron Man 2 and Mother's Day Champions FC Football played second fiddle this weekend to Mother's Day and Robert Downey Jr. & Co. running around saving the world from a Russian villain. Quite the opposite event played out across England as another Russian, this time Roman Abramovich and not Mickey Rourke, emerged from the rubble […]

Chelsea announced a £65.7m loss for last year, a staggering sum, particularly as it marks an improvement over the loose-pursed past.  Though the tangible sum is less, the impact will be felt more, after Roman Abramovich as billionaire Roman Abramovich potentially lost the bulk of his fortune.  Abramovich’s woes have already affected Chelsea.  The Russian […]

So Andrei Arshavin is starting to make loud noises about his future, and it doesn't look like playing in Russia is a part of it.  He's telling Zenit St. Petersburg that if he has to, he'll buy out his contract (this is the only link that is currently available, the Telegraph also reported the same […]
