Chelsea: The FA Cup Connoisseurs

by

From Peter Osgood, to Didier Drogba. Dave Sexton, to Jose Mourinho. Many of the Chelsea greats have lifted the famous FA Cup, and since beating Leeds United at Wembley back in 1970, we have gone on to win it six more times, with just three teams amassing more wins in its history.

After winning the last FA Cup final at the original Wembley, we have taken the trophy four out of the six seasons it has been held at the new Wembley stadium, becoming somewhat specialists in the competition during the 21st century, with 5 wins and 6 finals so far, in just 12 years.

With just 7 games, 8 for some, left to be played in the EPL, several teams are beginning to scramble for those final undecided positions in the league. The EPL is coming to a crescendo, so sit tight and enjoy the madness that pops up the screens in the next few weeks.

For Man Utd, the league is all sewn up and any climax in that regard would be to the delight of their fans. They can start celebrating. There is also the relegation battle and in that mix is QPR, Wigan, Reading, A.Villa, Sunderland. It would be interesting to see how that pans out.

Following the quotes of Jose Mourinho over the weekend, speculation has been rife that he is set to return to Chelsea. The 50-year-old has regularly been linked with a move back to Stamford Bridge following his exit in 2007 and with the poor form of Rafa Benitez, the supporters would all but welcome him back with open arms.

Can Lukaku be the man to bring Chelsea goals?

Having secured the signature of Romelu Lukaku almost two years ago, it was fair to say that Chelsea had brought in one of the games most sought after youngsters. Impressing for Anderlecht, his physical stature and approach to the game meant he was touted as the long term replacement to Didier Drogba, who departed for Chelsea before moving to Galatasaray over the last 12 months.
