CFC REF 💙

talkSPORT just COOKED Chelsea FC after getting slapped 3-0 by Everton FC Darren Lewis didn’t hold back: “This business model is failing Chelsea.” Darrrn Lewis basically said the whole “buy young, flip later” strategy is a mess. Danny Murphy went straight to the pitch problems: “No leaders, no control, too many red cards.” 🟥🟨 Both agreed that you can’t compete in the Premier League or UEFA Champions League with a squad full of potential but ZERO authority. ❌ Defence? No organiser ❌ Midfield? No control ❌ Discipline? Chaos And the manager? Just a shield for a broken system.. Big clubs build winners. The verdict? Until Chelsea FC balance youth with real experience, competing for titles like the Premier League or UEFA Champions League remains

@Sports_City247 They have played 22 matches in 5 years, how many matches do they play against each other in a year?

🚨⚽📊 STATS | Ahead of the UEFA Women’s Champions League quarter-final clash between Real Madrid Femenino and Barcelona Femení: Since Real Madrid launched their women’s team in 2020, the Women’s Clásico record reads: 🔵🔴 Barcelona Femení 21 wins, 77 goals scored 🤝 Draws 0 ⚪⚫ Real Madrid Femenino 1 win, 10 goals scored

@Yusty121 City landing both Anderson and Tonali would be a smart, high-energy midfield reset under the new era.

🔵🚨| Manchester City are planning a major midfield rebuild this summer, with moves being lined up for both Elliot Anderson and Sandro Tonali. The rebuild is being driven by uncertainty around several key players Rodri has interest from Real Madrid, while Bernardo Silva is expected to leave when his contract expires, and Mateo Kovačić could also move on after an injury-hit season. Tonali’s situation could depend heavily on Newcastle’s season, with European football now unlikely potentially opening the door for City to test their resolve with a summer bid. With Pep Guardiola and Hugo Viana leading a new era at the Etihad, this double swoop would signal a serious reset in midfield ahead of next season. What Your thoughts 💬 [Via @City_Xtra]

@OKHASEME1 Mohamed Salah is an absolute Premier League legend and one of Africa's greatest ever players, clinical finishing with both feet. That iconic consistency make him a true superstar!

Mohammed Salah is a star with unique speed with silky skills . The Egyptian superstar's uniqueness lies in his blazing pace, clinical finishing, and versatility. He plays on the right, cuts inside, and scores with both feet. Salah's style blends power and finesse, making him a Premier League legend. ACHIEVEMENTS -3x Premier League winner, -CAF African Footballer of the Year (2017, 2018), -Premier League Golden Boot (2018, 2022). Salah's trophy haul includes the Champions League and Africa Cup of Nations. He's Liverpool's record scorer in Europe. What's your take about him? Where or how do you classify him?

@ImoPunter May the best country win , it will be a game between France and Brazil not Vini and Mbappé

Brazil will host France, and we have Vini and Mbappé. Who are you supporting? Me:

@CFCtalksdaily @Matt_Law_DT Losing always makes players lose believe managers especially if these managers are not high profile

@Matt_Law_DT on Rosenior's tactics: You can tell they [CFC players] don't believe in it. The way they're not carrying out instructions, how they're not really recovering from anything tells you they don't actually believe in the way they're being asked to play

@Queenofsoccer86 To believe and to be sure are different, They should be asked if they are sure of the project?

🚨 UPDATE: Chelsea player still believes in the project — when many others do not** According to Chelsea News, one senior player remains fully committed to the long-term vision at Stamford Bridge despite the current poor run of results and growing doubts around the squad. The unnamed player told the club’s media team: “I still believe in the project. I see what the club is trying to build and I’m fully behind it. We just need to stay together and keep working.” This comes at a time when several high-profile players (including Enzo Fernández) have shown uncertainty about their futures, and many fans have lost patience with the Boehly/Clearlake era after another disappointing season. The report suggests there is still a small core of players who are bought into Rosenior’s ideas and the club’s direction, but they are clearly in the minority right now. A rare positive voice amid the gloom. 💙 Source: Chelsea News

@ImoPunter The issue Coaches have with big players is over coaching then, that was why Alonso had issues. Arbeloa can in and let them play to their strength

How can I explain to my grandchildren that on January 14, 2025, this man Álvaro Arbeloa changed the system and was able to manage players' egos to even defeat the best coaches like Mourinho, Pep Guardiola, and the Haram coach himself, Diego Simeone, and went straight to La Fábrica to pick up Thiago Pitarch, Palacios, and Manuel Ángel to make Real Madrid a team to watch week in, week out? 😭 Like my Grandchildren will never relate to this kind of unlimited joy then after the serious trauma Xabi Alonso did to me before AA changed my life. Fvk mehnn!

@ImoPunter Real Madrid should take Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez and give Valverde 😂

I have never seen Pedri jump this high to attempt controlling the ball 😭😭😭🥹🥹

@owoshuk12 He won everything at Chelsea FC, he is a true legend

@CfcRef_ one of our legend. he won it all

£5m from Olympique de Marseille to Chelsea FC… 🔵508 appearances. 68 G/A. 9 years without a single error leading to a goal. Won it all: 🏆 UCL, Europa League x2, Premier League x2, FA Cup, League Cup, Super Cup, Club World Cup. César Azpilicueta 🫡 🔵Started on the bench behind Branislav Ivanović… stayed patient, worked, waited and became club captain. Proof that greatness isn’t always bought for big money. 💙

🚨Atlético Madrid release their own “Review Time,” calling out the Royal Spanish Football Federation for only showing the red card incident while ignoring other key moments. They pointed to several decisions they believe were overlooked: ❌ Dani Carvajal on Giuliano: no foul given ❌ Vinícius Júnior vs Robin Le Normand: judged as a dive ❌ Penalty shout on Marcos Llorente: not awarded ❌ Antonio Rüdiger shove: no foul called Atlético clearly felt the full story wasn’t shown.

@OKHASEME1 Both managers are legends of the game , it's difficult to choose between them

Who do you think is the best manager? ALEX FERGUSON or PEP GUARDIOLA?

@LiquidAy Smart move by Arsenal prioritizing recovery for key players like Saliba, Gabriel, Odegaard, and Timber during the break could keep them firing for the title.

🚨JUST IN: Arsenal will keep nine senior players back during the international break, with tailored training plans as several recover from injuries. Martin Ødegaard and Jurrien Timber are closing in on returns, while others like Gabriel Magalhães and William Saliba aim to regain full fitness. The crucial run-in is testing the squad depth and I believe the team will be ready to pull through.

@benefactorbasi1 Yeah he has so much respect from Chelsea fans

@CfcRef_ Some bigname that i respect

@LiquidAy He is Chelsea's unspoken legend

@CfcRef_ Definitely. A proper Chelsea legend. Loyal and dedicated.

@benefactorbasi1 Have a great day ahead

Good morning, Culers! 💙❤️ New day, new blessings. May your day be as calm as Joan Garcia… and as sharp as messi and Lamine Yamal on the right wing. May algorithm favours us today too. ⚽✨

@_phocus1 Chelsea can get a maximum of 12 points from a possible 21 points That's the new Chelsea reality we all need to accept 😭

How many points do you see?

@Queenofsoccer86 Chelsea's defense crumbled the day Colwil got injured and Chelsea didn't get a capable replacement. Hope he comes back stronger

🚨UPDATE: Levi Colwill ACL return latest: “He’s hitting all the benchmarks” – Liam Rosenior gives positive update Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has provided an encouraging update on Levi Colwill’s long-term ACL recovery: - Colwill is progressing very well and is “hitting all the benchmarks” in his rehab - Rosenior: “He’s still looking at a return this season. We’re hopeful, but we have to be careful – we don’t want to rush him.” - The defender has been working hard at Cobham and is getting closer to full fitness This is a big potential boost for Chelsea’s defence, which has been badly hit by injuries this season (Chalobah out for 6 weeks, Reece James also sidelined). No exact date yet, but the club are optimistic Colwill could feature before the end of the 2025/26 campaign. Get well and come back stronger, Levi Source: Chelsea News

@NwokaR39474 Unlike thy defender Chelsea bought for €80 million , Tarkowski put on a flawless performance in Everton game against Chelsea

🚨🗣️- After Everton’s clash with Chelsea, Troy Deeney highlighted James Tarkowski’s dominant, no nonsense performance not just for the tackles, but for the authority and calmness he brought to Everton’s backline. 🗣️ “He made those tackles when needed and, more importantly, was a calming presence… Chelsea would love a centre-back with that kind of gumption.” Via @siphillipssport]
