Saints vs Chelsea: The one that sent Chelsea to another final

Saints left on the floor at the sight of Giroud's nips
Antonio Conte has lead Chelsea to their second FA Cup final in as many years. While some of the warm and fuzzies that he cultivated last season may have waned throughout this season, it’s still a great feeling to reach another final. Setting up some intense ‘narrative’ which will go head to head with the Royal Wedding. I have no doubt that Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte will play their parts to ensure the limelight is firmly planted on Wembley come May 19th. Sorry Ginge Prince (and that girl from Suits).

Leicester vs Chelsea: The one that saw improper footballers in action


Do not be alarmed. Chelsea have only gone and done a win. In a meaningful game no less. And just to keep it all really interesting the players were forced to play against the power of the tracksuit. It’s not quite turning things around at Camp Nou to progress in the Champions League - but it is a semi-final at Wembley. I will take it! So you lot can stop grumbling about the season and get yourselves up for it. Chelsea are 180 mins away from potentially lifting a trophy at the end of this season.

Some takeaways from Sunday’s game in varying degrees of usefulness as we look ahead to the end of the season

Chelsea vs Everton: The one that Rooney sweated through his Spanx

'You call this hot?! Pffftt'
Hot fun in the summertime. Or if you were in the East stand or Gate 15 more like melt your face off fun in the summertime. And come away blind like you’re Donald Trump staring straight into an eclipse kind of fun. Despite the sweat stains cropping up where sweat stains should never be - it was a fun day out at Stamford Bridge, especially after Chelsea’s last outing there.

Less so if you’re a team that’s already played SEVEN competitive matches this season — including three in the last week. A maddening schedule at the best of times. This kind of fixture congestion is usually saved for Christmas. I’m not convinced that Ronaldo Koeman feels like Christmas came early for his side.

Arsenal v Chelsea: The one that doesn't count

Just wanted to take the mask off
When you lose the Community Shield, it’s not a real trophy. When you win the Community Shield — it’s still not a real trophy!! Sorry Jose Mourinho. Your desperate attempts to make it a thing at at your Thursday Night Cup victory party are as futile as Gretchen Wieners trying to make fetch happen. The FA does not deem it a competitive fixture - which is why we were all treated to Victor Moses’ attempts at thrown ins on Sunday. Thanks to his escapades in an actual competition - the FA Cup final - he’s suspended for his next competitive match. Not the Community Shield.

Chelsea vs Transfer Market: The one that's a brief overview so far

Not Diego Costa
Well it certainly has been a while since you and I sat down for a little chat. That's on me. But let's be honest, you didn't need me waffling on as Chelsea marched on to another Premier League title. And it only being amazing as it's the Don's first season. Thankfully no one got too big headed in the matter as the FA Cup swiftly provided a nice balancing out of the universe. Although it did not make for a brilliant day out for yours truly. Thankfully there's Sailor Jerry to sort out those sorts of days.
