🔁 Share Tracy, an RCN member and registered nurse working in advanced practise, on why this meeting mattered 👇

5 yrs ago, sparks’ flying pickets shut down the UK Atomic Weapons Establishment as part of an unofficial dispute over deskilling. Don’t let anyone ever tell you that rank & file union militancy stopped in the 70s. Our movement is gonna need more of this.

Enzo Fernandez is an exceptional, box-crashing player when in the mood. He’s a world champion. His numbers at Chelsea are decent, 10 goals and four assists in the Premier League this season. But if Fernandez is keen on a move because Chelsea's aren’t in Europe, as is being claimed, then maybe he also needs to look at himself as one of the reasons why Chelsea are not in Europe.
When Chelsea cried out for somebody to take control of a game, as against Brighton and Sunderland, he failed. In the 3-0 loss to Brighton, Fernandez made one tackle in the 90 minutes and lost out. He lost 4/6 duels. Only 1/4 passes was forward. He didn’t have an attempt on goal. However out of his depth Liam Rosenior may have been, he wasn’t helped by Fernandez.
In the 2-1 final-day defeat to Sunderland, Fernandez was given the joint lowest mark on the match report on the Sky Sports website, 3/10. He made one tackle and failed to win the ball. He made three fouls and was booked once. Chelsea lost 2-1. However out of his depth interim Calum McFarlane may have been (understandably), he wasn’t helped by Fernandez.
The 25-year-old Argentine is a very good No 8 on his day, not a 6 btw, and there will be interest in him whatever the reservations about his character. Neither Real Madrid nor PS-G have a need for his specific skill-set but Manchester City do, Atletico Madrid do. If Chelsea can get anywhere close to the £106m they paid for him, it will be a major result. #CFC
