If talking to your mates about feelings is "woke" no wonder suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45! #DailyFail #Woke @MindCharity

@Speakup__9ja @henrywinter Good question 🤔 and what if he got 2nd yellow and a red? Would he get 4 games? 2 game ban for 10 yellows + 2 games for 2nd red of the season 🤷🏻‍♂️

@henrywinter Honest question, if caicedo gets a straight red how would it affect his yellow card tally?

Strong leadership by Chelsea to omit Enzo Fernandez for next two games. Unlikely to have played in the first, Port Vale in the FA Cup, but dropping him against Manchester City in the Premier League is significant. Chelsea need the points to get back in the Champions League positions. Enzo is a winner and productive (8g, 3a in 30 PL this season). But his exclusion is clearly the right decision. Enzo’s flirtation with Real Madrid was disrespectful to Chelsea fans, team-mates, head coach, staff, sporting directors and board. He’s vice-captain. He's captain in the absence of Reece James and certainly hasn’t behaved like one. Some of Enzo’s frustration about the club’s direction is understandable but it’s unprofessional and unhelpful to state it publicly. Liam Rosenior is under enough pressure without dressing-room unrest/division. Enzo has also criticised underperforming team-mates like Filip Jorgensen against PS-G. All a bit rich: Enzo kept giving the ball away against Everton (still had two shots well-saved by Jordan Pickford). Opportunity for Cole Palmer at 10 v City? Palmer is not in the best of form, is better floating inside from the right with the ball, and is a different type of 10 to Enzo. Chelsea have options with Enzo dropped. They have enough wingers (Estevao, Neto) to cover Palmer moving inside. They have enough midfielders with Andrey Santos/Romeo Lavia although Moises Caicedo is far from his peak form. A booking against City (the 32nd PL fixture so two-game ban for 10th booking applies) would see Caicedo miss Manchester United at home and Brighton away. Chelsea discipline needs addressing more broadly. Rosenior says he has spoken to Marc Cucurella about his comments in an interview with The Athletic. Cucurella praised Rosenior but questioned why Enzo Maresca was eased out. Should he have been punished by club, too? He wasn’t indulging in transfer speculation as Fernandez was. His comments were actually sensible (a new manager really needs a pre-season etc). And, of course, as one Chelsea fan observed, Cucurella is difficult to drop as no quality replacement at left-back. A final thing on Enzo… would he actually get in Real Madrid’s team? Would Kylian Mbappe welcome the Argentinian who mocked the Frenchman and his team last year? #CFC

@glory98matondo @MailSport I know. Just used Arsenal for the money. Odious man

@wiregooner @MailSport Same! Terrible person & he's even a Luton fan

The downfall of Arsenal Fan TV: How 'corrupted' kingmaker Robbie Lyle is fighting to keep control of his £6.8m empire run alongside a 'Mad Dwarf' amid toxic fallouts, why viewing figures aren't spiking anymore and the truth about star names' exits trib.al/SJHQQ8k

@glory98matondo @MailSport Hope it fails massively and he goes bankrupt

@MailSport @wiregooner best news ever

@WayneRooney I'll put u asleep within 10 seconds u little girl. Don't say stuff and not follow up on it. I'll be waiting

@bdawson1902 @_WireFans_ @TrylineUK Don't mention Max Wood. Most Wire fans want him to be given a run in the first team, but he's being overlooked for some reason. Bench selection seem to be Sam Burgess' biggest flaw so far, he gets it wrong more often than he gets it right

@_WireFans_ @TrylineUK It’s already paying dividends for you lot, CTW and Irwin staring so far this season. I also really like the look of Max wood and Leon Hayes

Warrington's academy is starting to bear fruit. Taylor-Wray and Irwin breaking through now. There's more to follow.

I cannot understand how the likes of Joe Philbin is picked each week, but the club decides to ship Max Wood off on loan..

@TheUnitedCityFM Rest up Kev, hope you can enjoy your Easter weekend 🐣

Stream Schedule Change I've made the call to cancel streams for this week, just haven't been as well enough. Unfortunately that also means streams don't return until Wednesday of next week as for different reasons I wasn't going to be able to stream Mon/Tues anways.

He doesn’t even get the irony.

@AdamFulwell_ @MK_1997som Southgate cockblocked us by sitting back on a 1 goal early lead against a centre back pairing that was pushing 40 🤦‍♂️

It’s mad that Italy were dogshit for a decade, then out of nowhere they peaked during Euro 2020 just to cockblock England out of their first trophy since 66, then straight back to being absolute wank again 😭

@Footballtweet Palmer lost the ball and then didn't follow Mitoma. Yet you're blaming Mainoo?

🐢 Is Kobbie Mainoo running in custard? What's he pointing at? The man who sprinted past him?

Sky are bigging up ‘gifting’ us HBO Max which just appears to be all the stuff they already showed and then removed from Sky Atlantic and now have to pay another tenner to watch in uhd without ads on HBO.

@PieEatinGooner True. Don't think that's long enough for a team of 30 seasons myself

@wiregooner Jamie Lyon played 55 games…

If Andy Farrell isn’t in at 13 in this all time super league team, let’s just move on quickly

I understand you were too young to witness him. What Thierry Henry did at Arsenal in the Premier League can’t even be quantified by stats. Even with elite numbers, they still don’t do justice to the influence he had on the pitch. You just have to witness it in flesh to fully understand why he holds immortal status as the undisputed Premier League GOAT.

Salah was incredible, but Henry was the best player on the planet for a good few years.

There are some clubs - specifically looking at HKR and Wire - who need to grow a backbone

Excited to start my new job as head of PR for @IpswichTown! International break just started so should be a quiet day in the office, wish me luck!

@HandofArsenal @TribeOfArsenal Kayode would be incredible if White does leave 🙏 Livramento is too often injured

Everton are showing strong interest in Ben White. While other clubs have made enquiries, it is the Toffees who are leading the race as of today. The strategy is the same as last summer… Andrea has been identifying multiple targets, their personal terms, price range and squad stylistic need before narrowing down the list. More or less, most of the names you have seen have been enquired about. Livramento for example would jump at the chance to sign for Arsenal should we firm up our interest. The same can be said for Alex Jiminez at Bournemouth. Arsenal will begin to formalise interest in their final shortlist in the near future. There is a strong emphasis on the mandate to sell well this upcoming transfer window. A criteria that Andrea will be judged on heavily this summer.
