๐จ Mikel Obi on Kai Havertz & Noni Madueke after the UCL Final:*
"I remember when Noni Madueke was fighting Cole Palmer over penalties at Chelsea. So why didnโt he step up and take one for Arsenal when they needed him most? He plays like Liam Delap, but with Messiโs ego.
Noni told the world last week that โChelsea is where I wasโ. And Kai Havertz spent years saying winning the Champions League with Arsenal would mean more than winning it with Chelsea.
Chelsea gave Kai the biggest night of his career โ one goal, one Champions League, a place in history. Instead of appreciating it, he acted like it was just a warm-up for something bigger. Same with Madueke โ Chelsea gave him a Club World Cup medal without him contributing a thing.
They celebrated every goal against Chelsea like they had a point to prove. Last night proved one thing: talking about the Champions League isnโt the same as winning it.
Kaiโs medal still says Chelsea on it. The trophy he dreamed of winning with Arsenal is still missing from their history.
Football is cruel. Sometimes it waits patiently before reminding people where they had their greatest success.
Kai and Noni wanted to show the world Chelsea was just a stepping stone. Instead, they found out Chelsea was the peak.
Some players leave Chelsea and become legends elsewhere. Others leave and spend years chasing the standards they already had.
The Champions League doesnโt care about feelings, interviews, or celebrations. It only remembers winners. And the last time Kai Havertz and Noni were winners, they were wearing blue."
