The Kerry Dixon Show - Chelsea v Southampton

Chelsea legend Kerry Dixon joins Stamford Chidge to look back at an up and down week for Chelsea with defeat to West Ham last weekend and a win away to Huddersfield in the week. Kerry also gives us his thoughts on the match against Southampton on Saturday.


After the defeat to West Ham was Conte right to admit that the title has gone and can tiredness really be an excuse for the sluggish performance?


What message did starting Willian, Hazard and Pedro against Huddersfield send to Michy Batshuayi? After all with a 3-1 win it is hard to argue against it?


Which Chelsea side will turn up against Southampton on Saturday? Will the Saints park the bus and will an early goal be crucial for Chelsea?

  • 1136. ‘Boom!’ Chelsea FanCast #1136

    01:54:30
    Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Dean Mears to look back at a great comeback against Forest and ahead to Brighton on Wednesday.In part one we discuss a great What a comeback - Poch’s subs; Reece James back; limbs fell when Jackson scored. Is the fact that Chelsea have come from behind to win 5 times this season show a growing mentality. On the negative side, Chelsea couldn’t deal with Forest's physicality (fouls), directness and crosses as we conceded two poor goals. Aina and CHO looked good - did we make a mistake letting them go? Plus a shout out to Palmers pass and Mudryks finish and a shout out to Moises continued improvement. All we need now is for Newcastle to drop points against utd or Brentford and Chelsea to win against Brighton and Bournemouth.In part two we preview Brighton v Chelsea starting with Chidge's team selection. Does Poch have a selection dilemma? There's talk of Winstanley and Stewart wanting De Zerbi to take over from Poch because he has a connection to Mudryk and lots of Brazilians whilst coaching at Shakhtar Donetsk. But he's been piss poor at Brighton so why should we take him at Chelsea.Chelsea need to be on it - snapping into tackles; concentrating defensively; not giving the ball away on Wednesday night but Brighton should be a very different prospect to Forest. We wrap up with discussing how we see it going and give our predictions before another round of 'They Played For Both'.To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to https://nordvpn.com/chelseafancast.

Will the returnees from injury make the team? Should they? Can we keep up the momentum?

  • 1134. ‘The Inverted Super Poodle’ Chelsea FanCast #1134

    01:49:00
    Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Martin Wickham to look back at a 5-0 hammering of the Hammers.In part one we applaud another great team performance with the emphasis on team. Is this down to having so few players to choose from? What happens when the injured return? The inverted poodle is working wonders Poch has got Chelsea playing great one touch football, scoring goals and defending well. And while it was great to see Silva back, Chalobah has been the understated hero at the back recently.In part two  we discuss Moises and Gallagher again, Palmer again ole ole and Madueke who was superb and is maturing. We discuss Jackson - has he got what it takes to become a top striker for Chelsea? We reveal that Chelsea's form over the last 20 games - over half a season - has us in 4th place. And it looks like we have a very good chance of getting European football next season. With all that in mind, surely Poch must stay? We conclude by aslking are we ending the season in optimism or trepidation that Egbahli will fuck it up over the summer? To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to https://nordvpn.com/chelseafancast.

    Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Tony Glover to look back at a great win against bitter rivals Spurs and ahead to Chelsea v West Ham on Sunday.In part one we discuss a great win and team performance against Spurs on Thursday night. Lots of standout performances - Cucurella, Madueke, Trevoh, Jackson but was it the best performance of the season? Does this win ease the pressure on Poch - lose and he would have been curtains, but his post-match comments were worrying. And with the superb Conor banner displayed before the match the club simply must not sell the likes of Conor and Trevoh. They are good enough and they get it. Finally, with 4 matches yet to play, dare we dream about Euro conference league football next season?In part two we look ahead to the match against West Ham on Sunday kicking off with Chidge's team selection followed by JK's Presser Summary. Chelsea has a good record in London derbies this season with W6 D2 L3. Chelsea are now above West Ham - Moyes possibly off - out of Europe - will they be on the beach or try and be a thorn in our side as usual? The stats look good for Chelsea both recently and with our record of one defeat to them at home since 2002. How will it go - we give our predictions.

  • 1132. ‘The Chels Strikes Back’ Chelsea FanCast #1132

    02:03:27
    Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Marco Worrall, Gate 17's finest, to look back at the draw against Villa and ahead to Spurs on Thursday night. In part one we look back at the draw against Villa, arguably our best performance of the season, where we showed the fight, passion, and good football lacking against Arsenal. Poch’s half-time tweak moving the Poodle inside, worked well. And we shoudl have won it had VAR not intervened to deny Disasi a winning goal. We ask VAR what is it good for? Moises was a Kante like revelation but we still need a DM and it’s not Enzo. Reece James anyone? Gallagher steps up again – Clearlake’s folly if they sell him. Mudryk MIA again – should he be sold/loaned? Poch showing some fight at last. And finally Thiago Silva: Obrigado E Adeus.In part two, we look ahead to Thursday night's match against Spurs. Chidge gives his team selection and reveals we are down to the bare bones. Can we maintain the standard? Playing Villa on Saturday was not a bad warm up for Spurs. Spurs are more bonkers than us butare dangerous. Can we exploit their high line? Will they be out for revenge? Will the players and manager get the importance? At the end of the day, we simply can’t lose to them.We look back at some of our favourite Chelsea v Spurs matches at the Bridge and wrap up with our predictions. To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to https://nordvpn.com/chelseafancast.

    Stamford Chidge & Jonathan Kydd are joined by Martin Wickham to look back at a horror show against Arsenal and ahead to Saturday night's match against Aston Villa.In part one we ask why oh why did he pick Bagofshite and Disaster? Why pick Enzo if he’s carrying an injury? But we actually did ok in the first half - hung on in there, created chances (which we couldn’t finish). The second half was a shambles as we fell apart; poor defending again and worse, we gave up and as Poch said were “so soft”.It’s unacceptable isn’t it. It’s also hurts because it’s Arsenal and our heaviest defeat to them. With a record conceding goals 57 in a PL season and counting is the Bielsa affect on Poch in evidence? And with Pochs comments on what is neededm correct and necessary - will Clearlake heed them or fire and replace him? Maybe they should follow Arsenals model not Brighton’s.In part two we welcome back Justin Hawthorne from Up The Villa in The Opposition View. With Villa last English team in Europe - is this the priority or top four?And while Villa are in pole position for a place in the Top 4 are they worried about Spurs? With Olympiakos next week will this impact how Emery approaches Saturday? Is Justin worried about Chelsea given the result in the FA Cup? What does he think Emery's team selection and approach will be and what's his prediction.In part three we preview Aston Villa v Chelsea starting with JK's Presser Summary and Chidge's Team Selection. Can we, must we, bounce back from Tuesday night? How do we do it? Our record against Villa is good, but you can’t trust Chelsea at the moment. We have tough fixtures coming up - Villa, Spurs playing for top 4, West Ham shit but hate us, Brighton and Bournemouth bogey teams, Forest fighting relegation - how many wins/points do we see us getting?If we get humped by Villa and Spurs will Pochs position be untenable Should Winstanley and Stewart’s positions be untenable?We wrap up with our predictions.To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to https://nordvpn.com/chelseafancast.
