HERE WE GO! Hemos enviado un fax al @FCBarcelona_es con nuestra oferta de traspaso: 4 entradas para el concierto de Bad Bunny de mañana, una suscripción anual al ABC y una bolsa de pipas. Esperamos ansiosos la respuesta para preparar el ‘announce’.

Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Xabi Alonso as Manager of the Men’s Team.

The Spaniard will begin his role on July 1, 2026, having agreed a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge.

Welcome to Chelsea, Xabi!

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨 BREAKING: Xabi Alonso has accepted to become Chelsea next manager, HERE WE GO! 🔵🔜

The agreement is set to be completed.

🚨 Jamie Carragher: Chelsea a broken football club.

"It's shocking and it comes from the top.

"There's five or six really top players on the pitch today and they've been beaten by Nottingham Forest's B team.

"Less than 12 months ago, they were taking PSG to the cleaners.

"There's no connection between the players and the staff, the players and the fans.

"In some ways, it's a good thing because it tells you that football isn't just all about spending money, buying players and this revolving door.

"It's about creating togetherness and there's nothing there. They look like a broken football club right now."

🚨🔵 BREAKING: Calum McFarlane will be Chelsea new head coach until June on interim basis.

McFarlane will be working with support from existing Chelsea backroom staff.

It wasn’t Potter’s fault. It wasn’t Pochettino’s fault. It wasn’t Maresca’s fault. It isn’t Rosenior’s fault. People can blame coaches all they like, but the whole BlueCo/Chelsea project has been such a spectacular, hubristic failure

🚨 ⚠️ Chelsea have lost three in a row without scoring for the first time since March 1998.

🚨 ⚠️ Chelsea have not kept a clean sheet in the league since January.

🚨 ⚠️ Chelsea have lost 4 of their last 5 Premier League matches.

🚨 ⚠️ Chelsea have 2 wins in their last 7 matches.

[Simon Phillips @siphillipssport]

Chelsea didn’t get booed off today because all the fans had already left 😂🤦🏻

[Johannes Lindström @johlindstrom]

Nu händer det saker. Enzo Fernandez petad i två matcher.

[Pys @CFCPys]

🚨 Rosenior: “Enzo, firstly, as a character, a person and a player, I have the utmost respect. He's frustrated because he wants us to be successful”

“In terms of the decision, it's not all about me, or the sporting directors, the ownership, the players, we are aligned in our decision. The door is not closed on Enzo. It's a sanction. You have to protect the culture and in terms of that, a line was crossed”

[Johannes Lindström @johlindstrom]

Elanga!!!

Premier League fans deliver damning verdict on VAR. 75% of 7,946 fans polled by the Football Supporters’ Association “didn’t support the use of VAR”. Too long, too forensic, too much of a joy killer, fans say. Findings shared with Premier League and PGMO.

92% of fans surveyed “agreed” that “VAR has removed the spontaneous joy of goal celebrations” (82% of them “strongly agreed”).

85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” with the notion that “VAR makes watching football more enjoyable”. And 83% of those watching on TV.

85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” that “VAR decisions are generally resolved in a reasonable amount of time”. Echoed by 83% of those watching on TV.

Only 18% agreed that “VAR has improved the overall accuracy of refereeing decisions”.

72% are “concerned about the expansion of VAR beyond its current remit”.

79% “strongly disagreed” with the suggestion “that the match-going experience is better with VAR”.

67% “strongly agreed” that they preferred “watching games that are played without VAR to games with VAR”.

84% “strongly support” goal-line technology.

34% “strongly opposed” to the idea of a challenge system (two per game per team).

“These findings back up the FSA's previous survey in 2021, where fans expressed misgivings about the introduction of VAR,” says Thomas Concannon, @WeAreTheFSAPremier League network manager.
“The vast majority are reporting the same concerns five years on - the loss of spontaneity when celebrating goals, and an overall worsening of the match-going experience. We have shared the survey results with the Premier League and PGMO, and look forward to discussing its findings with them.” Fans surveyed of all PL clubs and all ages (Under-18 to 65+).

Stämningen i Chelsea-land just nu

[ChelsTransfer @ChelsTransfer]

Honestly, what is this football under Liam Rosenior? Aimless passing at the back. We might score a random goal but everyone seems to have regressed, bar Joao Pedro?

This team absolutely don’t deserve Champions League.

We will only embarrass ourselves worse than the 8-2 under this ownership.

[Johannes Lindström @johlindstrom]

Tappat omklädningsrummet alltså.

[Simon Phillips @siphillipssport]

“I was behind Liam Rosenior [last night], there wasn’t a single instruction that went through!”

[@LaurensJulien]

[ChelsTransfer @ChelsTransfer]

🗣️ Spanish football expert Graham Hunter: “I'm close friends with Luis Enrique. Before he took over at Paris Saint Germain, he had a very successful interview with Clearlake at Cobham for the Chelsea job. And he said - “I'm not taking that job.” He saw exactly what Enzo Maresca has suffered. And I know because he told us in the making of the documentary that we had with him. He saw interfering owners, 62 Directors of Football. There's a problem coming.

Xabi Alonso would not choose Chelsea. Stand on me. If I'm wrong, get me back on the show and humiliate me when Alonso’s the new Chelsea manager. He won’t choose that.”

Fy f-n vad skönt att han fick sparken

Enzo Maresca is now free to hold the sort of conversations with Manchester City that he is believed to have had on multiple occasions over the past weeks. (Standard)
