As I used to be coming into the rankings from this sport into my trusty previous Participant Scores spreadsheet, I observed a reasonably large error. I had not been together with all the person participant rankings for the general averages! The underside 5 traces had gotten lower off sooner or later — because it seems not solely this season, however all of final season already.
Fortunately, recalculating the averages for final season didn’t change issues measurably. The final 5 gamers (as ordered by squad quantity) had been all children who hardly performed anyway. However because of , that’s not the case this season. And by accurately recalculating the numbers, it seems that our in Liam Rosenior’s closing sport in cost is fittingly now in reality the bottom ever within the historical past of our Participant Scores at 2.98 — the primary and solely time (thus far) that we’ve dipped under 3.0 on the general common. Yay?

This newest defeat wasn’t fairly as dangerous as that, although we nonetheless didn’t fairly handle to clear the 4.0 Corridor of Disgrace threshold even with João Pedro’s and Jesse Derry’s respectable rankings.

2.98 — Brighton & Hove Albion 3-0 Chelsea (2026.IV.21.)
The gamers aren’t match to put on the shirt, stated Liam Rosenior in his closing post-match press convention. A coach not match for the job, a squad not match for the shirt, an possession not match for the membership. Due to a calculation error, this was initially ranked in second place, but it surely’s now been positioned in its rightful place.
3.02 — 6-0 Chelsea (2019.II.10.)
For over seven years, it was robust to see Chelsea ever “topping” this efficiency. However BlueCo stated, maintain our beers. Metropolis’s ending was extra medical on this sport nonetheless than Brighton’s ever was, and as outcome, this stays our worst loss in over three many years. We had been down three inside 20 minutes, down 4 by half, and gave up two extra within the second half for good measure. The nadir of Sarri-ball, or (nearly) any ball.
Commercial
3.36 — Brighton & Hove Albion 3-0 Chelsea (2025.II.14.)
Who let the report skip? The group confirmed no want, stated head coach Enzo Maresca, however our mentality was simply one of many many elements missing on this one. Actually, we had been discovered missing in nearly each side of the sport, from assault to protection, from planning to focusing, from technique to execution.
3.42 — 5-0 Chelsea (2024.IV.23.)
“After we conceded the third purpose the group gave up.”
-Mauricio Pochettino
3.43 — 3-0 Chelsea (2026.III.22.)
The second of back-to-back 3-0 losses, and back-to-back Corridor of Disgrace entries, and our third three-goal defeat in 4 video games (all losses), conceding twelve objectives in that span. Everton’s biggest margin of victory over Chelsea within the Premier League period. The one participant exhibiting any combat: 18-year-old . Liam Rosenior: getting older males and creating ifs. BlueCo masterplan: chef’s kiss.

3.62 — 4-0 Chelsea (2019.I.30.)
This was the away sport earlier than the (aforementioned) Metropolis away sport, and with Chelsea giving up 4 objectives within the second half of this one and 4 objectives within the first half of that one, we managed to lose 90 minutes of (away) soccer by a mixed 8-0 scoreline. Now that’s really spectacular!
3.69 — 3-0 Chelsea (2018.V.13.)
Antonio Conte’s final Premier League sport in cost, which started with Chelsea holding a slim likelihood of qualifying for the Champions League ( gained so it didn’t matter ultimately), however ended up with yet one more hilarious collapse. Per week later, Chelsea beat within the FA Cup closing so yeah, good luck determining soccer.
Commercial
3.70 — Chelsea 0-3 (2026.III.17.)
Chelsea had misplaced this Champions League Spherical of 16 tie within the first leg already, so all we actually wished to see was some affordable effort, a little bit of high quality leisure, and a few want. We conceded twice within the first quarter-hour, and it solely acquired extra embarrassing from there. Not one participant stood out; everybody was merely dangerous. Our worst residence sport*, and worst European match in WAGNH Participant Scores historical past.
*not counting the 4-2 residence defeat towards third division Bradford Metropolis within the 2014-15 FA Cup, which wasn’t televised
3.83 — Steaua Bucharest 1-0 Chelsea (2013.III.13.)
There have been many lows of the (We’re-Simply-Not-That-)Interim Blues, and this was actually one among them. Chelsea got here again to smash Steaua 3-1 within the second leg of the Europa League Spherical of 16 and would finally go on to win the competitors. Looking back, considered by means of the lens of latest seasons, it have to be acknowledged that this interim period seems to be fairly okay.
Commercial
3.95 — Chelsea 2-4 (2024.II.4.)
The second lowest rated sport at Stamford Bridge within the historical past* of our WAGNH Neighborhood Participant Scores (*see Bradford Metropolis caveat above). That stated, we might end each this season (2023-24) and the next season (2024-25) strongly regardless of the springtime video games that made this listing. Can we do the identical this season?
3.95 — Sheffield United 3-0 Chelsea (2020.VII.11.)
Outdoors of the primary jiffy, Chelsea had been by no means on this sport, which was performed in July in an empty stadium because of the COVID-19 pandemic. What made the outcome much more stunning was Chelsea’s usually superb play and type throughout “Mission Restart”. Like the present editions, this was a reasonably younger and inexperienced group, however with Frankie’s Fledglings we at the very least appeared to be on the correct path for (re-)constructing in direction of a extra optimistic future.

3.95 — Watford 4-1 Chelsea (2018.II.5.)
Conte misplaced 3-0 to Bournemouth within the sport earlier than this and requested the membership for an official vote of confidence, which was then adopted by an excellent worse efficiency as 10-man Chelsea had been destroyed at Vicarage Street. In equity, Chelsea, after falling behind, really equalized within the closing ten minutes regardless of enjoying a person down because the thirtieth (Tiémoué Bakayoko taking the last word prize with a 1.4 particular person ranking). However Watford took the lead once more instantly after Hazard’s equalizer and the Blues folded from there.
Enjoyable reality: Bakayoko’s ranking stood for a very long time because the lowest particular person ranking. It was “bettered” by Robert Sánchez’s 1.1 towards Manchester United earlier this season (when he acquired himself despatched off within the fith minute).
3.96 — Chelsea 1-3 Southampton (2015.X.3.)
The Mourinho Season was already in full swing by the point impressed Saints to their first win on the Bridge in 13 years. Enjoyable reality: this was ’s one and solely begin within the Premier League (he would play simply three extra occasions for us that season for a grand whole of 35 minutes, and we might lose all three video games).
Commercial
3.99 — Chelsea 0-2 (2023.IV.26.)
The worst of a most horrible season, the primary of the post-Abramovich period. This was the fifth in a run of six successive defeats in all competitions as we wished nothing greater than for the season to finish. We set fairly just a few new marks for futility on this season, and sadly, enchancment on that has been marginal at finest…
3.99 — Chelsea 1-3 Nottingham Forest (2026.V.4.)
The Drive was not with us on this Could the Fourth, and our rotten luck was compounded by some very poor particular person performances, particularly within the first quarter-hour. General, this sport featured as many head accidents as whole objectives, so perhaps we might’ve been higher off simply forfeiting. João Pedro did finish our historic 566-minute Premier League purpose drought with a spectacular bicycle kick, which actually deserved higher circumstances in order that it might be correctly appreciated.
