Chelsea FC are a successful football club located in the west part of London. They are sometimes given the nick names of both “The Blues” and occasionally “The Pensioners”.

Chelsea play in the English Premier League and finished last year’s campaign in 3rd behind Manchester United and Liverpool. Chelsea play all their home games at Stamford Bridge, which is a 42,000 seated stadium. The Stadium is given the nickname “The Bridge” by supporters and players alike.

Chelsea have won many honours. There domestic honours include 3 top division titles, which include 2 Premier League trophies, 5 FA Cup victories, 4 League Cup crowns and 3 Charity Shield wins.

On a European level Chelsea are regarded as one of the most powerful clubs, however their European successes do not reflect this at all well, having only won 2 Cup Winners cups and a Super Cup. However Chelsea where close Champions League Runners up in 2008 to Manchester United, only narrowly losing on penalties. It surely wont be long before Chelsea pick up their First Champions League trophy as they have been looking strong in European competition in recent years.

Chelsea’s new home kit features an almost completely blue design with the exception for the clubs badges etc. Featured in the centre is a panel design segmented into 5 parts. In the central segment are Chelsea’s shirt sponsors Samsung logo. To the wearers left is the famous club badge and to the right is the adidas logo, the shirts kit manufacturers. The kit also features the adidas stripes down the sleeves.

Overall I think this is a nice shirt design in which the Chelsea team will look very good in, in the coming season. With the likes of Frank Lampard, John Terry, Didier Drogba, Florent Malouda and many more featuring in this shirt, its bound to be a hit with the supporters.
