🚨John Terry on Chelsea’s Current Situation*
On the boardroom, Tuchel, Maresca, Rosenior, McFarlane, and Xabi Alonso:
“I’m sorry, but what’s happening at Chelsea FC right now is self-inflicted chaos, and it starts from the boardroom, not the dugout.
You had Thomas Tuchel — a guy who literally brought you back to the top, gave you identity, gave you belief. What did you do? You removed him. Not because he failed, but because there was no patience. Since then, it’s been the same story with different names.
Then you bring in Enzo Maresca, a manager building something with a clear project and structure. He delivers silverware — the Conference League and Club World Cup — and instead of backing him when things get tough, you pull the plug again. That’s not football management, that’s panic.
And then you bring in Liam Rosenior. No disrespect to him, but you’re asking someone with limited top-level experience, coming from Ligue 1, to suddenly fix structural issues that have been there for years. There’s no stability behind the scenes. You can’t build anything like that. That’s not how football works.
Five consecutive league losses. No goals. First time in over a century. That’s not just ‘bad form’ — that’s a reflection of confusion, lack of direction, and poor leadership from above.
People will blame the players, and yes, they’ve been poor. But when a club keeps ripping up projects every 12–18 months, what do you expect? You don’t build winners like that. You just create confusion.
And now I’m hearing talk like ‘trust the process’ again… what process? There is no process. It’s just decision after decision with no direction.
Chelsea aren’t just struggling, they’ve lost their identity. And until the people at the top take responsibility, it won’t matter who’s on the touchline — the same story will keep repeating.
Chelsea didn’t qualify for European football next season after losing to Sunderland. This isn’t the Chelsea I used to play for.
I pray and hope they back Xabi Alonso next season so that Chelsea can be restored to where they used to be.”
Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
