    Chelsea v Spurs Preview | Step Up
    Oct 22 2026
    Mike Penders gets his chance against Spurs on Saturday night, with Emi Martinez out and the Chelsea number one shirt there to be taken. Chris and Joe measure him against Petr Cech and Thibaut Courtois at the same stage and ask what ten games in goal would need to look like for Xabi Alonso to think twice about Martinez. Joe pleads for patience if a mistake comes. Plus Josh Acheampong’s contract standoff, Jordan Henderson’s midfield influence, and whether Spurs, six straight league defeats to Chelsea and still short of goals, finally break the run. — ★ ★ — Chapters00:00 Welcome and the Spurs run01:00 Penders steps in for Martinez02:00 Age, caps and games: Penders v Cech and Courtois05:00 What Penders needs to keep the shirt11:00 Josh Acheampong’s contract question21:00 Spurs: 18 wins to five27:30 Henderson and the midfield engine30:00 Effectively third: the title chat — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who’ve been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    160. Everton 0–2 Chelsea | Grown Up
    Oct 18 2026
    Chelsea grow up at Everton: a 2-0 win that ends the hosts’ unbeaten start and delivers a first league clean sheet in nine months. Pedro Neto’s second-half brace takes the headlines, but the bigger story is a side that stands up to a physical away day and looks like men rather than boys. Josh Acheampong has his best game in a Chelsea shirt, Jordan Henderson and Moises Caicedo hold the base, and Xabi Alonso’s three-week break looks to have tightened the defence. Emi Martinez goes off after a clash of heads, with jaw surgery to follow, Mike Penders gets his chance, and Reece James is out for months. — ★ ★ — Chapters0:00 Grown up at last: Everton 0-2 Chelsea reaction2:30 Emi Martinez’s injury scare3:50 Mike Penders steps in5:00 Josh Acheampong comes of age7:00 Lacroix and Colwill: building a partnership8:30 Hato at left back10:00 Henderson and Caicedo run the base11:30 Palmer, Rogers and Joao Pedro: the work rate15:30 Pedro Neto, reborn17:30 Alonso’s three-week break19:00 Joe’s take: a serious Chelsea20:30 Martinez’s jaw surgery and the road back23:30 Penders: the big opportunity29:00 Reece James out for months31:30 Henderson, Tchaikovsky and the squad minutes problem — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who’ve been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Everton v Chelsea Preview | Overdue
    Oct 15 2026
    Chelsea haven’t scored at Everton since a Jorginho penalty in August 2022, and last March’s 3-0 at the Hill Dickinson Stadium didn’t help the mood. After the 5-1 Bournemouth win, Alonso’s side finally look balanced: a back four with the ball, a 4-4-2 without it. Acheampong’s height against Everton’s set pieces, Estevão stepping into Pedro Neto’s role, and Colwill and Lacroix as a settled pairing in front of Martínez. Plus the fringe players short of minutes without Europe, Jordan Henderson’s critics, and Joe’s pick of Chelsea’s best Goodison result — the 3-2 in 2006 with Lampard, Ballack and Drogba.

    Jordan Henderson, 36, scores twice on his home debut as Chelsea beat Bournemouth 5-1 at Stamford Bridge. A right-foot finish off the post and a free kick into the top corner bookend a masterclass in game management. João Pedro makes it five in five, Morgan Rogers scores inside three minutes again, and Henderson and Caicedo look like a proper midfield pair, though the set-piece wobble at 3-0 is still a worry.

    Oct 7 2026
    After 22 days without a game, Chelsea are finally back, and Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge feels like a must-win for Xabi Alonso. Moisés Caicedo is training again, João Pedro's knee is the worry nobody is talking about, and Joe isn't convinced Bournemouth are the soft touch their league position suggests. Before that, Pedro retires, Lawrence Stewart leaves as sporting director, and Romeo Lavia and Morgan Rogers come back from international duty in form. — ★ ★ — Chapters0:00 22 days later: Chelsea are back1:00 Pedro retires4:30 Lawrence Stewart leaves by mutual consent6:30 Lavia's international break9:45 Morgan Rogers and the Cole Palmer question13:30 Chelsea v Bournemouth: the banana skin18:30 Last season's Bournemouth games19:00 Caicedo's return21:30 João Pedro's knee and the striker problem25:30 Chris's XI and Joe's verdict31:00 Too many players, too few minutes — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Man City's sham contracts of £830m might be the biggest football story of our time. We ask what it means for Chelsea: how we feel about it, how it compares with our own case, and whether we'd even want the trophies. Then the big one, the best punishment from a Chelsea point of view, with relegation-battling Hull, Coventry and Spurs watching closely. Plus the postbox: Stamford Bridge or a new stadium, one January signing, and the Chelsea match we'd watch again and again. — ★ ★ — Chapters0:00 The international break drags on1:00 How do we feel about the Man City charges?4:30 The asterisk on Agüero and Guardiola's 100-point side9:30 Chelsea's case vs City's: is there a comparison?13:00 Would you want the trophies?15:30 The best punishment, and what it means for Hull, Coventry and Spurs18:00 Sympathy for City fans22:30 Postbox: Stamford Bridge, stay or go?26:00 Postbox: one January signing30:00 Postbox: the Chelsea match you'd watch again and again33:30 Postbox: the best Chelsea item you own36:30 Postbox: favourite Chelsea chant — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Brentford 3–0 Chelsea | 22 Days
    Sep 20 2026
    22 days to sit on Brentford 3-0 Chelsea, 22 days for Xabi Alonso to find a plan B, 22 days to restart the season. A perfectly decent first half unravels when Jaidon Anthony nods in from a back-post corner, and the familiar Chelsea collapse follows: one goal down, crosses going nowhere, no answer. Chris backs Alonso and asks for patience, while Joe wants the back three binned, Estêvão on the pitch and Lavia alongside Jordan Henderson, who might have been Chelsea's best player on the night. Plus João Pedro's absence, Levi Colwill at left centre-back, and why Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth always seem to arrive with a plan Chelsea don't. — ★ ★ — Chapters00:00 22 days to sit on it02:00 A first half that was fine03:30 The back-post corner and the same old Chelsea06:30 What happens when Chelsea go a goal down07:45 Jordan Henderson in a Chelsea shirt08:30 Estêvão and the subs that never came12:00 Why Chelsea have to back Xabi Alonso16:00 Joe: "an appalling watch"18:30 Henderson best player, Lavia on the bench21:30 Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth have a game plan28:00 The back three has to go32:30 Five points behind Arsenal, four ahead of Coventry — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Brentford v Chelsea Preview | The Fix
    Sep 16 2026
    Chris and Joe reveal their fix for Chelsea's leaky defence ahead of Friday night's trip to Brentford — chasing a first league win at the Gtech since Ben Chilwell's solitary goal there in 2021. Off the back of a frustrating draw at Hull, they run through why Levi Colwill is under pressure, make the case for Reece James dropping into a back three, and back Jordan Henderson and Romeo Lavia to start together in midfield against Henderson's old club. Marco Palestra could get his first minutes on the left, Malo Gusto's struggles come under fire, and Morgan Rogers' remarkable start — three goals and four assists in six games — gets the praise it deserves. Plus: predictions for a game that sends Chelsea into a 22-day international break. — ★ ★ — Chapters0:00 – The Hull draw inquest and the weekend's results3:00 – New rivals: hating Man City's Enzo era6:30 – Morgan Rogers: the best Chelsea start in years12:15 – Brentford preview: chasing a first win since Chilwell's 2021 goal17:00 – The fix: Reece James into the back three25:30 – Score predictions — ★ ★ — Meet the HostsChris Sheen and Joe Kevin are lifelong Chelsea fans who've been going to Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.What started as swapping post-match voicenotes has grown into a fan pod capturing the highs, the lows, and everything in between from Gate 13 of the Matthew Harding Stand. — ★ ★ — The 1905 PodcastChelsea FC Founded: 1905European Champions: 19/05🌐 www.1905podcast.com📧 hello@1905podcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.
