This is my story of my Chelsea season I have just begun and will finish.

Carlo Ancelotti has shocked Chelsea officials by confirming his retirement at the age of 51. The decision came after his wife had his 2nd child and he could not fully commit to another managerial job. Chelsea wasted no time in employing former England international Kurt on a 4 year contract on around £43,000 a week. This is his first job in management and he's said 'I can't wait for such an opportunity. Chelsea are such a big club and I'd love to take them further than they've ever been before.

After a flawless pre-season campaign, with 6 friendlies and 6 six wins, Chelsea look in good shape for the season.

Crystal Palace 0 - 3 Chelsea
Swansea 1 - 5 Chelsea
Sheffield United 0 - 2 Chelsea
Hamilton 0 - 2 Chelsea
Oldham 0 - 3 Chelsea
Pescara 0 - 2 Chelsea

Chelsea look in good shape for the Community Shield match against Manchester United.

Manchester United took the lead with Wayne Rooney walking through the defence. Instantly Chelsea fought back and Gabby Agbonlahor scored 6 minutes later with a easy tap in from a Yoann Gourcuff through ball. A stroke of genius from Tranquillo Barnetta and smashed home from 20 yards. 5 minutes before the half time whistle and Chelsea wanted to go into the changing rooms with a more demanding lead, Gabby Agbonlahor scored from 6 yards out with a free header from Yoann Gourcuff's cross. The whistle went, and when they restarted, they seemed to have calmed down, Gabby Agbonlahor completed his debut hat-trick in the 63rd minute. Manchester United won a corner and Park Ji-Sung scored a sloppy goal. Gabby Agbonlahor collected man of the match.

article-0-045C774C000005DC-176_468x421.jpg


Chelsea took the lead after 13 minutes with a goal to remember for Frank Lampard with a 35 yard strike. Chelsea looked very shakey after that and didn't really create many other chances that half.
In the second half, Yoann Gourcuff brought Chelsea back to life with a well worked finish, one that he started. 13 minutes later, Sunderland had a burst of energy and scored a well worked goal, the goalscorer was Martyn Waghorn. Petr Cech was finally beaten after 252 minutes unbeaten. 5 minutes later, Gabby Agbonlahor was the scorer of the third goal with long ball from the box from John Terry and Gabby took on defender Anton Ferdinand, and scored the 1-on-1 with the keeper. Gabby Agbonlahor was through on goal, till Lee Cattermole fouled Gabby in the box, and was sent off instantly. Frank Lampard setted up and MISSED! 2 minutes later, Branislav Ivanovic headed in from a beautifully weighted cross from Tranquillo Barnetta. Even though he did miss a penalty, Frank Lampard still collected man of the match.
 
CHELSEA 1 - 0 TOTTENHAM
Chelsea-Frank-Lampard.jpg

Chelsea welcomed Spurs to Stamford Bridge and both teams were ready for a big rivalry match.
Neither teams created many chances in the first half but 6 yellow cards were given out.
Just after the break, Nicolas Anelka the provider to the goal to on 2 Spurs defenders, Gareth Bale and Michael Dawson, unselfishly he passed it across goal to Frank Lampard, and with an open net, I don't think Frank misses them. Luckily nobody was sent off after 11 yellow cards were given out. Goalscorer Frank Lampard collected man of the match.
 
Will be following, keep up the good work, never knew Gabby was that good!

In the 15th minute, Gabby Agbonlahor collected the ball in the centre of midfield and a perfected through ball to Tranquillo Barnetta lead to a first time power house to top of the net. Liverpool were on the back foot for the rest of the half but Chelsea were unlucky to score a second.
Fernando Torres added a goal to Liverpool's campaign, but not in style, Petr Cech's mistake lead Torres to a open net. Instantly, Chelsea scored with a power header from Yoann Gourcuff from a Gabby Agbonlahor cross. 10 minutes later, Torres again scored with a mistake at the back, this time, Daniel Van Buyten and Torres headed in. Once again, instantly Chelsea scored this time Gabby was the scorer, from a Michael Essien long ball, Gabby placed into the bottom corner. Gabby collected man of the match.
