He won the Golden Glove three times; in the 2004–05, 2009–10 and 2013–14 as the Premier League goalkeeper with the most clean sheets.

Oscar gave the Blues the lead before André Ayew drew Swansea level, yet Chelsea went in 2–1 up at the break thanks to a Federico Fernández own goal. 6 minutes into the second half Thibaut Courtois was sent off for a last man foul on Bafétimbi Gomis, and Gomis stepped up to equalise for the Swans.

First choice keeper Thibaut Courtois is ruled out for up to three months with a knee injury. The Blues poor form continued as they suffered another defeat, this time away at Everton. A Steven Naismith hat-trick condemned Chelsea to a third defeat after just five games, as many as they suffered in the entire previous season.
Chelsea win their first home game of the season as they defeat Maccabi Tel Aviv 4–0. Goals from Willian, Oscar, Costa and Fàbregas sent the Blues top of Group G after one game. This victory was Chelsea's first clean sheet since the Blues won the title last March 1–0 against Crystal Palace.
Goals from Kurt Zouma and a Calum Chambers own goal gave Chelsea a 2–0 victory over 9 man Arsenal. Gabriel Paulista and Santi Cazorla were sent off, Gabriel for kicking out at Costa and Cazorla for two yellow cards. The Blues also keep their first clean sheet of the 2015-16 Premier League season, Zouma's goal was his first in the Premier League for Chelsea. Two days after the game, both Chelsea and Arsenal were charged with failing to control their players and Costa was charged with an act of violent conduct for the incident that started the disturbance, where he slapped Laurent Koscielny in the face, which was not seen by the match officials but caught on video. Costa was given a three-match suspension, while Gabriel had his three-match suspension withdrawn after a "wrongful dismissal claim" from Arsenal and he was available for their next match.
Chelsea came from 2–0 down with 10 minutes to play to secure a point away to Newcastle United thanks to late goals from substitutes Ramires and Willian. Ayoze Pérez and Georginio Wijnaldum sent the Magpies ahead, before the Brazilian substitutes sent the Blues 5 points off the top 4.

October
Chelsea's poor start to the season continued as Southampton came from behind to record a victory at Stamford Bridge. The Blues have taken only eight points from a possible 24 this season and are only four above the relegation zone. After Saturday's home defeat, Chelsea have offered their full support to manager José Mourinho. Meanwhile, Blues captain John Terry says the 52-year-old Portuguese is the best person to help the club recover from their miserable start. "If anyone is going to get us out of this hole it is going to be José Mourinho," said the 34-year-old defender.
The Blues defeat Aston Villa 2–0 at Stamford Bridge, with a Diego Costa goal and an Alan Hutton own goal. José Mourinho dropped Eden Hazard, Nemanja Matić and Gary Cahill and chose to start youngsters Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Baba Rahman. Four days later Chelsea draw 0–0 with Ukrainian side Dynamo Kiev, keeping them in third place one point behind the Ukrainian champions.
José Mourinho and Nemanja Matic were sent-off as Chelsea's miserable Premier League campaign continued with a 2-1 defeat at West Ham on Saturday. Mauro Zarate fired the Hammers in front when Chelsea failed to clear a corner. Matic was sent off after being booked twice in nine minutes before the break, and Mourinho joined him after speaking to referee Jon Moss at half-time. Gary Cahill levelled from a corner but Carroll met Aaron Cresswell's cross to send the Hammers second in the table.

Kit information
Adidas have launched three kits as usual for Chelsea. Each kits feature a fingerprint motif woven onto the label, which symbolises the connection of the club's fans, according to the website.
- Home: The home kit stays loyal to tradition, with white and red trims at the collar, sleeves, shorts and socks. The vertical pinstripes pay a tribute to Chelsea's history, which have been a feature of several iconic shirts from the past three decades. The kit features a fingerprint motif woven onto a label on each shirt. The sponsor logo of Adidas and the words "YOKOHAMA TYRES" are both white, while the sponsor logo of Yokohama is red.
- Away: The away kit features a predominantly white body with blue and red bands on each arm. Same as the home shirt, the away kit features a "fingerprint" on the hem. The sponsor logo of Adidas and the words "YOKOHAMA TYRES" are both blue, while the sponsor logo of Yokohama is red. The shorts and socks are white and blue respectively, enabling them to be mixed and matched with their home counterparts.
- Third: The third kit is black and white and features a fading, lateral pinstripe design on the shorts, which features as a subtle graphic on the shirt as well. The badge is adjusted to the kit colours of black and white. The kit follows the theme of many other third kits of important clubs that Adidas supplies for the big club. The sponsor logo of Adidas and the words "YOKOHAMA TYRES" are both white, while the sponsor logo of Yokohama is red.
- Keeper: The primary goalkeeper kit is 'vivid mint', combined with navy blue applications. There is also an alternative yellow kit as well.

UEFA Champions League
Main article: 2015–16 UEFA Champions LeagueChelsea have qualified for the Group Stage of the 2015–16 UEFA Champions League due to winning the 2014–15 Premier League.

The group stage draw was made on 27 August 2015 in Monaco, France. Chelsea are to face Porto, Dynamo Kyiv and Maccabi Tel Aviv.
