Orphaned references in 2014–15 Chelsea F.C. season
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 2014–15 Chelsea F.C. season's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "released": From 2014–15 Fulham F.C. season:  From 2013–14 Chelsea F.C. season:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 19:00, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 27 July 2014
please change the transfer fee of "PATRICK VAN AANHOLT" from "FREE TRANSFER" to either "undisclosed fee" or "1.5 million pounds".

LB	Netherlands Patrick van Aanholt	England Sunderland	Free	25 July 2014 TO LB	Netherlands Patrick van Aanholt	England Sunderland	1,500,000pounds	25 July 2014

here are some of the links proving that van aanholt's transfer was not a free transfer. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_van_Aanholt#Sunderland 2. http://www.transfermarkt.com/patrick-van-aanholt/transfers/spieler/52119 3. http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/11368070.Chelsea_defender_completes___1_5m_Sunderland_move/ and many more can be found out on the net.

 * I have made the change to undisclosed and added a source. I could not find a reliable source to support the 1.5 million pounds number, it is unlikely it will be disclosed. Boccobrock • T • C  18:51, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

 * I did not put the amount, rather I placed Undisclosed, as per my comment in the request above. Thanks. Boccobrock • T • C  18:52, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

First team squad section
This should be removed as it violates WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Specifically Position, Games Played and Goals Scored. There is no reliable source for these and as such it fails WP:V. I've removed this several times and it's always added back, so please do not re-add again. Thanks, JMHamo (talk) 15:07, 21 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Some sections should be removed (not all). Get rid of matches played, goals, transfered from and transfer year. QED237&#160;(talk) 15:14, 21 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Player position can be sourced from officail webpage. If they list a player as defender he is defender. QED</b><b style="color:red">237</b>&#160;<b style="color:green">(talk)</b></i> 15:15, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Show me where it says that Nathan Ake can play LB/CB/DM... it's all WP:OR JMHamo (talk) 15:29, 21 September 2014 (UTC)


 * It specifically says on the Chelsea F.C. website "he is primarily a defender who can play either in the middle or on the left, but is also comfortable in the centre of midfield. I feel that when listed like this from a primary source as WP:OR states it should be allowed  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.24.205.0 (talk) 21:35, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

Solanke kit number
Solanke wore the number 35 shirt today, think that needs updating in the new contracts section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.147.59.63 (talk) 16:06, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

So many issues!
This article has so many problems, I don't even know where to begin. For one thing, the tenses are all over the place, then there's all sorts of weasel words like "Chelsea legend" and "horrific challenge". I've tried to fix what I can, but this is just atrocious writing. Whoever wrote this article should be ashamed of themselves. – PeeJay 22:51, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

In addition to the above observations, I think the whole article suffers from massive over-production. The month-by-month summaries and the unnecessary positional table that then accompanies it, is one of many examples. There is even the addition of the date and time of release of publication of the PL fixtures. 46.7.85.68 (talk) 20:44, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Appearances table
Cech made 7 league apps, Courtois 32 league apps, Izzy Brown one league app as a sub against West Brom. I'd guess there are other inaccuracies as well. 14.202.164.207 (talk) 03:59, 12 August 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.202.164.207 (talk) 03:57, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
