Excited about this for a couple of reasons, one, most importantly, it shows that Alonso has control of business which is huge. Alongside that, breaking the mould of only signing kids. Also adds some much needed experience and leadership. Him in a midfield with Moi is beautiful.
🚨🔵 Xabi Alonso made it clear internally from the start that he wanted to sign Granit Xhaka. 33 y/o captain is in full agreement with Chelsea as revealed. Salary and contract length have all been agreed. #CFC
The transfer fee is expected to be in a similar range to the one paid when Xhaka joined Sunderland. It is now up to the clubs to reach an agreement. Negotiations ongoing. Xhaka is waiting. @SkySportDE 🇨🇭
Whatever we can from PSG for Enzo, take it.
Never drop Cucurella, unless he’s injured.
Never drop Reece, unless he’s injured.
If Joao Pedro is in good form, don’t rest him, let it continue.
Garnacho, Hato, Neto, Delap - Way off it.
Odegaard has to be shagging Arteta I’m telling you. It is criminal that he plays week in week out. Does absolutely nothing. Rarely impacts games. Eze must be fuming.
Pedro Neto’s decision making is up there with the worst I have seen of professional footballers. If the option is not put your head down and run fast, he is clueless.
@itvfootball I might be old school in my thinking here but:
1. if the ball bounces, it’s not a volley.
2. I’d call this a lob, not a volley.
3. It’s nowhere near the goal of 2026, and if it is, the bar is low, keeper makes this very easy being in no man’s land.
Is there a more unlikeable guy in darts than Joe Cullen? Always something to moan about, never his own performance that’s questionable. #WorldDartsChampionship#Darts#allypally
@arielhelwani I’m a big Wardley fan. Have been since I watched the war with Clarke at the o2 but watching this last night it was clear the stoppage was really early. Parker was still trying to slip shots, he wasn’t badly hurt, it ended a really good fight too early.
