Month by month review

June

Legendary Chelsea midfielder and all time top scorer Frank Lampard left the Blues after 13 trophy laden years, having played 648 games and scoring 211 goals. During his Chelsea career, he won 13 trophies, including 3 Premier Leagues, 4 FA Cups, 2 League Cups, one Europa League and one Champions League.[1][2]

Although Lampard stated that he intended to remain focused on the World Cup and would not do any transfer business until after the tournament, reports suggest that the ex-Chelsea man has already agreed a deal to join new MLS franchise New York City FC.[3]

Chelsea announced the signing of former Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas from Barcelona for £27 million.[4][5][6][7] He was given the number 4 shirt vacated after the departure of David Luiz to Paris Saint-Germain, on a five year contract. Luiz's transfer was completed just a day after the signing of Fabregas and the Brazilian left the Blues having played 143 games and scoring 12 goals.[8][9][10][11]

July

On 1 July, Ashley Cole departed Chelsea after eight years with the club. He left after winning one Premier League, 4 FA Cups, 1 League Cup and one Champions League.[12] Along with Cole leaving the Bridge, Samuel Eto'o,[13] Henrique Hilário[14] and Sam Hutchinson[15] all left as well.

On the same day, Mark Schwarzer signed a new 1 year extension.[16] Chelsea also announced that they agreed a fee with Atletico Madrid for Striker Diego Costa, thought to be in the region of £32m[17] and eventually sign him on 15 July for the said amount.[18]

On 16 July, Chelsea announced that they had agreed a fee with Atletico Madrid for Left-back Filipe Luis, thought to be for about £16m, subject to a medical and agreeing personal terms,[19][20] whilst Beşiktaş announced that they had agreed a deal to sign Demba Ba from the Blues for a reported £4.7 million. Ba left the Blues having played 51 games and scoring 14 goals.[21][22] On that same day, a very youthful Chelsea team comfortably defeated League 2 side Wycombe Wanderers 5–0 in their first pre-season friendly at Adams Park in Buckinghamshire.

On 18 July, Filipe Luis officially became a Chelsea player,[23] being given the shirt number 5, vacated by Michael Essien who had worn the number from 2005 until his departure in January 2014. It was also confirmed that his teammate at Atletico Madrid and now Chelsea, Diego Costa would take the number 19 shirt,[24] vacated by Demba Ba, who had held the number since Paulo Ferreira left the club in the summer of 2013. Also that day, another very youthful Chelsea team narrowly defeated another League 2 side AFC Wimbledon in their second pre-season friendly at Kingsmeadow in south-west London, winning the match 3–2 after being 2 goals down at half-time; the comeback aided by a few senior players brought on for the second half. The next day, Chelsea announced that Filipe Luis will get the shirt number 3 while the shirt number 5 will be given to the 19-year-old French defender Kurt Zouma.

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba re-signs for Chelsea from Galatasaray free on a one year deal. Drogba's last kick for the Blues was the final penalty in the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final which won the Champions League for Chelsea for the first time.[25] In the new season, Drogba will get the No.15 shirt. Because his former number 11 belongs to Oscar now.[26]

Romelu Lukaku departs the Blues for £28 million to Everton. He leaves after playing 12 games for Chelsea and scoring zero goals.[27][28] While Ryan Bertrand goes on a season long loan to Southampton, his sixth loan for the Blues.[29][30]

August

Defensive Midfielder Oriol Romeu signed on a season long loan for Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart.[31] Chelsea FC traveled to Istanbul, Turkey to take on Fenerbahçe and Beşiktaş in a small 3-team tournament. Chelsea beat Fenerbahçe 2–0 with goals from Diego Costa and Branislav Ivanović. The Blues then lost to Beşiktaş 1–0 as they played former blue, Demba Ba.

Chelsea started their 2014–15 Premier League campaign with a 3–1 victory against Burnley on 18 August at Turf Moor. Chelsea surrendered the first goal in the thirteenth minute. Three minutes later, Diego Costa smashed home a close range shot to level the score. A pass from Cesc Fàbregas set up an Andre Schürrle goal which broke the deadlock. Branislav Ivanović provided the final goal of the match from a corner in the 34th minute. This match marked the first competitive action for new signings Diego Costa, Cesc Fàbregas and Thibaut Courtois who started in goal after a three year loan spell at Atletico Madrid. Didier Drogba also made his return appearance to the Chelsea squad coming off the bench in the 2nd half.[32]

Chelsea won their first competitive home match, with a 2–0 victory against Leicester City, on 24 August at Stamford Bridge. Diego Costa scored his second goal in two matches followed by Eden Hazard's first goal of the season. Thibaut Courtois claimed his first clean sheet of his Chelsea career.[33]

On 29 August Fernando Torres signed a 2 year loan deal with AC Milan[34] Chelsea's next game was 9 goal thriller away against Everton, a game which Chelsea won 6–3, with Diego Costa scoring a brace.[35]

On 31 August Loïc Rémy transferred to Chelsea from Queens Park Rangers for £10.5m on a 4 year deal.[36]

September

On transfer deadline day Chelsea send three players on loan, Jamal Blackman joins Patrick Bamford on loan at Middlesbrough.[37][38] While Marco van Ginkel signs on a year long loan at AC Milan and Chalobah joins on a 4 month contract to Premier League club Burnley.[39][40] Chelsea have currently sent 26 players out on loan, the most in the Premier League. After the international break striker Diego Costa is named player of the month for August after scoring four goals in three games and sending Chelsea to the top of the table.

On September 13 Chelsea played their second game of the season at Stamford Bridge against Swansea FC Chelsea won the game 4–2 with Diego Costa scoring his first hat trick for Chelsea and Loic Remy scoring on his debut.[41]

Chelsea started their 2014–15 Champions League with a 1–1 draw at home to Schalke 04. Cesc Fabregas grabbed his first Chelsea goal yet Klaas-Jan Huntelaar scored with 28 minutes to secure a point for Schalke 04 and make Chelsea drop their first points of the season.[42] Chelsea dropped their first points of the 2014–15 Premier League season as they drew 1–1 to reigning champions Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. In a close fought encounter Zabaleta was sent off after 66 minutes giving Chelsea the advantage, which André Schürrle did giving the Blues the lead. With only 5 minutes to go Chelsea looked like they were going to stretch their winning run to five games, yet former Blue vice-captain Frank Lampard scored.[43] Despite the draw Chelsea still remain three points clear at the top of the table on 13 points.

In Chelsea's next match they knocked Bolton out of the League Cup Third Round, by winning 2–1, thanks to a debut goal from defender Kurt Zouma and a strike from Oscar,[44] the result means Chelsea will face Shrewsbury Town in the League Cup Fourth Round.[45] Chelsea's last game in the league for September came against Aston Villa, a game which was won 3–0 meaning they finished September top of the table.[46] It was announced that Chelsea had enquired about temporarily relocating to Twickenham Stadium whilst redeveloping Stamford Bridge.[47] The final game of the month was in the Champions League came against Sporting Lisbon in Portugal. Nemanja Matić scored the only goal of the game, giving Chelsea a 1–0 win, and leaving them top of their group[48]

October

Chelsea's starting eleven against Maribor in the UEFA Champions League.

Chelsea began October with a derby match and a 2–0 victory over local rivals Arsenal. A first half penalty by Eden Hazard and a 9th goal of the season for Diego Costa sent the Blues five points clear at the top of the table ahead of the international break.[49]

Chelsea preserved their five-point lead at the top as they defeated Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park 2–1.[50] Three days later they continued their good form into the Champions League as they defeat Maribor 6–0 at Stamford Bridge. Goals from Loic Remy, Didier Drogba, John Terry an own goal and two from Eden Hazard sent Chelsea on their way to secure a record Champions League win, which also maintains their unbeaten start in all competitions this season.[51] On 22 October Chelsea's chief executive Ron Gourlay left the club, he had joined in 2009.[52]

Chelsea drew for the second time in the league season away to Manchester United. Didier Drogba's powerful header gave the Blues the lead, but a last minute equaliser from Van Persie meant the sides shared the points.[53] The result renders Chelsea four points clear of second-placed Southampton at the end of October.

Diego Costa, Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard are among the nominees for the 2014 FIFA Ballon d'Or, while José Mourinho is nominated for the 2014 FIFA World Coach of the Year.[54]

In the Blues final game in October they edged past League Two side Shrewsbury Town in the Football League Cup thanks to a 3rd goal in 3 games from Didier Drogba and an own goal.[55] In the next round they will face Derby away.

Chelsea's unbeaten start continued as they defeated Liverpool, 2-1 at Anfield. Emre Can gave the Reds the lead yet goals from Gary Cahill and Diego Costa sent the Blues 7 points clear before the international break.[58]
