“Ghana response was not necessarily, it now creates an impression we are all like that when it’s not.…President of Ghana should have given us sometime to deal with this matter”
- Julius Malema, leader of the EFF, criticized Ghana for pulling its citizens out of South Africa over xenophobic violence without giving room for diplomatic dialogue.
“Our President Tinubu is just acting deaf despite the pleas of Nigerians. President Mahama should teach him how to govern. Okudzeto Ablakwa is very hardworking, unlike our Foreign Affairs Minister, who knows nothing.”
— Ghana-based Nigerian comedian Parrot Mouth reacts to Ghana’s repatriation of its nationals from South Africa amid rising xenophobic attacks, showering praise on the Ghanaian government for its swift and decisive action in protecting its citizens abroad
Chelsea should be requesting a meeting with PGMOL. Been a scapegoat for the league since the Josh King debacle. Any time referees could give a cheap or 50-50 decision against Chelsea, they have.
Would be quite happy to not see any of Enzo Fernandez, Marc Cucurella, Pedro Neto, Malo Gusto or Wesley Fofana not in Chelsea colours next season.
The former has clearly checked out and wants to go, Cucurella can only play well in one system, Pedro Neto's end product is abysmal.
Malo Gusto and Wesley Fofana are simply not good enough. Same can be said about Liam Delap, Tosin, Filip Jörgensen and Benoit Badiashille. At least 1 of Jamie Gittens or Alejandro Garnacho can go. If Roméo Lavia can't stay fit, he needs to go too. Marc Guiu needs to go for the sake of his own career. If a club offers £100m+ for Cole Palmer, I'd consider it.Dario Essugo needs a loan. Trim the squad massively and get players that can cope with the physicality and intensity of the Premier League. It doesn't require household names or big cash splurges, focus on getting people that can deal with the rigours of the Premier League. Chelsea will have an elite manager in the dugout and he will make players better.
The biggest issue this season has been a lack of balance in the midfield and a lack of spark. Estêvão can be a game-changer, you'd imagine Cole Palmer will benefit from a rest and you need to find one or two other players that can win games in a moment.
Enzo Fernandez made a gesture to Chelsea fans at full-time following the defeat to Sunderland that could be interpreted as a goodbye.
Fernandez would welcome a bid from Real Madrid, while some informal and formative talks have taken place with Manchester City.
He wants to play #UCL, with Chelsea's poor season leaving them in a weaker position to persuade Fernandez to sign a new deal.
However, Chelsea won't consider a sale this summer for a book loss.🇦🇷

🚨🎙️ Wayne Rooney on Chelsea’s controversial FA Cup Final defeat against Manchester City:
“I’ve watched football long enough to know when a team’s been hard done by, and Chelsea were absolutely robbed today. I don’t care who you support, some of those decisions were unbelievable.
The first incident on Joao Pedro before halftime is a penalty for me all day long. Khusanov doesn’t go for the ball, he goes straight through the man. Anywhere else on the pitch that’s a foul instantly, so why does it suddenly become ‘not enough contact’ inside the box? Makes no sense.
Then in the second half, the one on Caicedo… Doku clearly catches him as he’s driving forward. Chelsea players are surrounding the referee asking for consistency because we’ve seen those given plenty of times this season. VAR had every opportunity to step in and once again nothing happens.
And the handball shout? That’s another one people will debate all week. The ball hits O’Reilly’s arm from Enzo’s cross and I honestly don’t know what defenders are supposed to do anymore because we’ve seen penalties given for far less than that. Every week the interpretation changes.
What frustrated me most was the reaction from the officials. No urgency, no proper review, no referee going over to the monitor. In a cup final, with moments that big, you have to get them right.
Chelsea players looked furious because deep down they probably felt the decisions were never going their way today. Three huge calls, all ignored. That changes games, especially finals.
If this happened to Manchester United, Liverpool or Arsenal, everyone would be talking about it for weeks. But because it’s Manchester City on the other side, people seem scared to really question it properly.
Chelsea didn’t only lose the final today… they were let down badly by the officiating.”
