How not to win a Conti Cup Final

March 06, 2023 06:37 - 40 minutes - 92.9 MB

Well that sucked. Chelsea play a weird, annoying, bad and frustrating match versus Arsenal, having a considerable hand in all three of their goals after going 1-0 up in the second minute. It was a shock and not at all what we're used to from this team. So Maryam & André do their best to talk through it. We give our theories on why this might have happened, whether it's good or bad that it happened at the beginning of a brutal month, and how Chelsea can bounce back. We also address some Emma...

January 15, 2023 15:49 - 43 minutes - 36.1 MB

Maryam and André stepped to the mics minutes after #CFCW's 1-1 draw at the Emirates! While the result keeps the table as you were for Chelsea – three points clear but having played a game more than Arsenal and Manchester United – the match was full of highlights and lowlights, a poor (and costly) refereeing decision, a dramatic late equalizer, and a LOT more.
