| 6/24/26 | Midfield Audit: What’s happening with Enzo Fernandez? | It’s part three of the Straight Outta Cobham team’s summer squad review and it’s time to sort out who on earth’s going to be playing in midfield for the Blues next season.Enzo Fernandez is the main name on the lips of Matt Davies-Adams, Simon Johnson and Cerys Jones. Is he off to Real Madrid? And if so, is it going to take all summer to happen?Might a disappointing World Cup for Ecuador be a good thing for Moises Caicedo? What does the future hold for Andrey Santos and will Romeo Lavia ever complete 90 minutes in a Chelsea shirt?The team also look into the fixture schedule for next season and discuss the compensation situation that’s complicated Enzo Maresca’s inevitable switch to become Manchester City manager.Produced by Lucy Oliva & Xavi Bird. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | Defence Audit: Adios Cucurella! | Marc Cucurella is on his way to Real Madrid and he’s timed it perfectly just ahead of the Straight Outta Cobham team’s review of Chelsea’s defensive unit.Matt Davies-Adams is joined by Liam Twomey and Sam Parkin to discuss what the Spaniard's exit might mean for the rest of the squad. Is Jorrel Hato the main benefiter at left back?How might Xabi Alonso get the best out of captain Reece James next season? Will it be with a back three? And might that be good news for Malo Gusto?The team also look into the many options at centre back, who they think should stay and go, and also who they might like to see arrive in the transfer window.Produced by Lucy Oliva and Xavi Bird Hosted on Acast.

| 3/23/26 | 22-23 déjà vu, anyone?

Have the players downed tools? Have they lost respect for Liam Rosenior's methods? And are we in danger of seeing the Blues tumble down the table?! With Champions League football next season looking fanciful in this current state...It might be time to regroup for the men's side over the international break - but CFCW have got the small matter of a Champions League quarter-final against Arsenal on Tuesday night to look ahead to. We preview that game - and some big contractual news to come out of the club with a couple of legends looking set to depart. Plus - an unfortunate trip down memory lane to that 2022-23 campaign - surely it can't get that bad?!!We'll be back with a special show on Wednesday shining the spotlight on CFCW and hoping for a night to remember for Sonia Bompastor's side under the lights at the Emirates.HOST: Matt Davies-Adams WITH: Simon Johnson and Cerys JonesPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.

And will this embarrassment on the biggest stage make the club hierarchy reconsider their approach to this 'project'?The mood is very high going into the first ever trip to the Hill Dickinson then (!) - we look ahead to that match. Plus - racking our brains for players who found the net at Goodison... We'll be back on Monday to look back on the trip to Everton - will the Blues be heading into the international break on a much-needed high?HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Luke Bosher and Simon JohnsonPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.
