Welcome to episode 123 of The Si & Dan Talk Chelsea Podcast, where Macca and Si were joined by Blue Lions TV presenter, NiiNiiFC!

* NiiNii's background. A bit about him, how he started supporting Chelsea, and how he came around to launching Blue Lions TV.

* Everton match. Thoughts? Late goal making it feel like a defeat. Did Chelsea play well though? Error cost two points.

* NiiNii's overall thoughts on Potter so far? Is he keeping the faith?

* Goalkeeper situation. Do Chelsea need to target a new number one?

* Captain situation. Thoughts on Kovacic being handed it on a temp basis? Should it have been Reece James? Who should be future captain?

* Ted Lasso marketing campaign. The anger it caused? Ray Wilkins banner changed. Disrespectful? Todd Boehly says it wasn't their decision.

* Summer priorities - Who does NiiNii think we will target or should target?

* Dan quickfire to NiiNii.

I’m sure you’ll agree, NiiNii was an amazing guest, making this a great show!

Dan + Matisse, 30 minutes of pure passion, discussing the protest against the Ricketts family’s bid to own Chelsea Football Club.

The protest will begin at 12pm, outside Stamford Gate (same place as the Super League protest) outside Stamford Bridge, on Saturday April 2nd 2022; prior to the Brentford game.

Matisse spoke passionately about how he set up this protest, why we are protesting against the Ricketts family, and what we hope the protest will achieve.

Please spread the word, share with your friends, family and pets. #NoToRicketts, for the future of Chelsea Football Club, your club.

We hit a big milestone of Podcasts this week, recording our 50th ever episode as we approach our first year of Podcasting.

It’s been an unreal journey and we’ve had some amazing guests so far going from Fabrizio Romano, to Mason Mount’s Dad, to the Dark Destroyer from The Chase, and a number of former Chelsea players and top Journalists! We aim to go even bigger for the second year.

Anyways, for this milestone (and every milestone) we have made this Podcast episode FREE for all to listen to as a thank you and a celebration. These will be the only free episodes though, the rest have to go back behind a firewall unfortunately. But for the price of one pint of beer per month, we feel you are getting good value for money with our Pods, Exclusives, jam pack DAILY Newsletters from Si, inside info, breaking news, and so much more! So please join us!

For our 50th Episode we went big. This is the most amount of guests we have ever had on one show and we bought in what I am sure you’ll agree to be, three big characters within the Chelsea fan community.

Joining Si & Dan was Jai Mcintosh, Dan Childs, and Joseph…

Drop them all a follow on Twitter - @Jai_Mcintosh - @SonOfChelsea - @Mxdiano

As you can imagine, with a panel like this we had a pretty amazing show with all 5 guys bringing their views on all things Chelsea to the table covering all the latest topics.

Cheers all, Si & Dan.

Welcome back to an early release of our latest Podcast, Episode 47!

This week we went big and bought in one of our most favourite guests of all time so far, Chelsea TV presenter Zac Djellab for his first (and not last) appearance on the show.

As you can imagine, Zac was full of excellent insights, inside Chelsea stories, and great opinions on our beloved club.

We covered…

- The beginning - How Zac got involved in content creation and how he worked his way up to a role working for Chelsea!

- Who Zac has interviewed and who are his favourites - Including Lukaku, Gilmour, Guehi, Jorginho, Mount, and many more!

- The inside story about those Champions League after party celebrations.

- Zac’s favourite moments and favourite players as a Chelsea fan.

- His views on the current Chelsea team, Thomas Tuchel and what he is like, and current club affairs including reviewing Manchester City and Juventus defeats.

- Some VERY interesting Quickfire questions and a couple of follower questions.

Thanks for tuning in guys, hope you enjoyed this one as much as we did.

PLEASE NOTE - As explained here, we are going to paid subs from tomorrow late morning, so this Podcast will go behind a paywall going forward. Listen to it soon as possible if you want it for free, but our content will be going behind a paywall from tomorrow onwards and that means our content will be getting even better and even more regular!

Thanks as always for all your support, listens, and reads!

As always, for those who prefer to watch as well as listen, we have the video version available here!

Simon and Dan.

The duo was back this week as Si rejoined Dan on the Podcast after Dan bought in Joe Tweedie and Jai Mcintosh in Si’s absence last week.

This week we had two games and more importantly two wins to chat about and dissect, as well as some pressing issues on form and futures of a number of players.

We hone in on some great form and positives from a handful of players over the last few games, but we also bring up some negatives as well and question some futures of a couple of players.

We also discuss the puzzle that is Thomas Tuchel’s formations in the last couple of days and whether he will stick to the new shape.

We look ahead to a MASSIVE game against Manchester City this Saturday.

Some great debate here in this one, and we also finish up on some contract chatter and some transfer news as well.

Thanks for tuning in guys, we really appreciate it! Please subscribe if you haven’t already!

Welcome back to another episode of The Si & Dan Talk Chelsea Podcast!

A different type of episode this week, with our main man Simon on his well deserved honeymoon! (Congratulations again to Mr and Mrs Phillips) we drafted in SADTC’s newest recruit for a chat, the one and only Jai Mcintosh, alongside a special guest this week, none other than Mr Joe Tweedie!

Dan joined by Jai and Joe took time to catch up and hit numerous elaborative talking points, below are some of the topics we covered:

* J Tweeds - A popular man; good with the facts and figures, shines a light on his background and affiliation with Chelsea

* Transfer round up. The signing of Saul, thoughts after his debut? The failed signing of Kounde?

* The engine room - Kovacic; What a start to the season, is he the first name on team sheet now…

* The future - Rice, Bellingham, Saul permanent?

* We seemingly look less secure at the back thus far, with Edou Mendy registering the most saves in the PL this year. Is this part of the new look Chelsea?

* Contract station - Rudiger, Christensen, Silva, Azpilicueta and talk of his resurgence

* Romelu Lukaku - Is he now the complete forward? Four goals in as many games, can he continue this form? Clinical is the word to sum him up thus far, should we be worried about the lack of chances up to this point though…

* Fan Q&A - Focus on Timo Werner’s future at Chelsea

* THE Famous Quickfire!

Thanks for joining us guys! Simon will be back with us next week, with Jai making another appearance in the near future. As always, please subscribe for our latest updates in your inbox!
