@PSGINT_ When this happened, I guess u were playing against a Scottish team.

premier league is filled with teams that don't want to lose instead of win that's why all their big games are like this

@CFC_OBED 2 and that’s with my heart but my mind knows we getting slapped.

On a scale of 1-10 , how confident are you that Chelsea will win today ?

@tier_1st I don’t fall for their PR nonsense when things are going wrong.

If all this Xabi Alonso stuff is just PR from the board then they deserve the backlash coming. You can’t hype Chelsea fans up with Xabi links then go and appoint another manager with a poor win rate again 😭 If that manager fails too, the fan reaction will be 10x worse. Just get Xabi Alonso done.

@Blue_Footy @GraemeBailey I will believe it when I see it. I am used to their PR tactics specially when things are going bad.

‼️Xabi Alonso has agreed in principle to become the next Chelsea manager after a concession on transfers was made. ~ @GraemeBailey teamtalk.com/chelsea/xabi-a…

@reshadrahman @monfortcarlos Man’s already in his dream club. Wasting your time. Broke club

🚨 It is also not even ruled out that during these hours, Deco may also have a face-to-face meeting including the footballer himself. @monfortcarlos #Transfers 🇧🇷☎️

@CFCMods I hope so inshaallah. I got PTSD from losing too many finals at Wembley recently so I am not expecting any win tomorrow.

Call me crazy but I have a feeling we are going to totally outclass Manchester City tomorrow.

@PSGINT_ Trent over James is a laughable nonsense. Trent ain’t even making the england squad at the World Cup

🇬🇧England X 🇨🇵France Combined XI

@theberneese Well be happy for your ferran. Don’t know why ur board is twerking for JP

Ferran Torres has more goals than £100M Joao Pedro

@Kadaeline_ @theberneese Like he isn’t a monster already.

@theberneese If flick wants him then we have no choice I believe flick could turn any player into a monster

Chat are we cooked?

@reshadrahman @RogerTorello @JoanPoquiEraso How u gunna pay for him?? Broke ass club. U can barely pay for rashford that’s gunna cost u 30M and u want to come for a player that’s gunna b 100M minimum.

🚨 CONFIRMED: Joao Pedro is becoming the #1 striker goal for Barcelona this summer, especially for Deco. They’ve spoken with his camp and have received some openness over a move to the Catalan club. @RogerTorello @JoanPoquiEraso #Transfers 🇧🇷🔵🔴☎️

@EIshmael_ Remember how he was talking about 1 man 1 vote all those Friday prayers in the mosques. 2 terms and he’s still hungry.

After 10 hours, he will officially be known as the former failed president of Somalia, with no election held and his mandate having expired.

@CFCDaily For them it’s 200M since they were asking for 85M for Fermin. Broke club.

🚨😬 Barcelona intensifies contact for João Pedro. [Ge Globo] ge.globo.com/futebol/futebo…

@MPDrAbib it sad to be this old and don’t understand what that little lab dogs agenda is. The fact that u didn’t do a background check on the podcast that u went to tells us that u don’t care about fighting corruption.I hope to never reach this age n be this naive.Corruption is bad period

The Fear Is Not Mario Nawfal Interview - The Fear Is Exposure of Cancer in Our Communities I will not apologize to anyone for giving an interview to Mario Nawfal, and I reject the fake outrage from people who suddenly discovered “principles” after remaining silent for years while Somalia was being destroyed by corruption, abuse of power, political criminality, and the collapse of rule of law. Mr. Nawfal has his own beliefs, opinions, and political positions, just as I have mine. His views do not define my convictions, especially regarding Palestine. My support for the Palestinian people did not begin with social media trends or political fashion. It began long before many of today’s online activists even understood the meaning of the Palestinian struggle. In 1976, as a middle school student in Mogadishu, I had the honor of accompanying my beloved father to ceremony with some of the most important liberation leaders of that era. That day changed my worldview forever. I personally met and shook Yasser Arafat and learned directly from him about the suffering, displacement, humiliation, and resistance of the Palestinian people. I also met Joshua Nkomo (ZAPU), one of the great freedom fighters of Zimbabwe’s liberation struggle against white minority apartheid rule, and President of North Yemen Honorable Ibrahim al-Hamdi. These were names I had previously only heard through BBC Somali Service broadcasts, and suddenly as a young student I was standing before them, listening to men who dedicated their lives to liberation, dignity, sovereignty, and justice for their people. Those encounters shaped my conscience and political understanding at a very young age. Later during university, Palestinian classmates shared firsthand stories with me about checkpoints, occupation, humiliation, exile, and daily suffering. I defended Palestinian rights when doing so was unpopular, inconvenient, and even academically and politically costly in which I lost my scholarship. So, spare me the dishonest accusations that I somehow abandoned Palestine because I gave interview Mr. Nawfal. That claim is intellectually weak, politically childish, and morally hollow. Let me also explain the upbringing and experiences that shaped my beliefs so people may better understand why I refuse to surrender my principles to online pressure, emotional politics, propaganda campaigns, or organized intimidation. When I was in middle school, I once visited my father at his office. While waiting to meet him, several people were sitting outside criticizing him harshly. When I informed my father about the criticism, he calmly smiled and told me this was normal in public service. Then he taught me a lesson that stayed with me my entire life - “Nin xil qaaday, eed qaaday.” “A man who accepts responsibility must also accept criticism”. That lesson shaped my understanding of leadership and public life. If you choose to stand in the public arena, you must also be prepared to face criticism, accusations, misunderstandings, and even unfair attacks without abandoning your principles. So, the criticism I am receiving today - whether from people who once claimed to support me or from supporters of Hassan Sheikh Mohamud - is well understood. Criticism is part of democratic life. Another defining lesson came when I was about 14 years old. My father called me into his office and asked me to help draft a formal legal complaint against the Director of the Ministry of Transportation and Aviation involving allegations of corruption, misappropriation, and abuse of public funds. He handed me sections of the Somali Penal Code and detailed legal violations. At that time, corruption cases against senior officials were extremely sensitive. Powerful ministers and even a vice president allegedly benefited from the deal in question. Pressure came from every direction to stop the case. But my father refused to back down. After I finished typing the complaint, I asked him whether he feared losing his position by pursuing such a dangerous case against powerful people. Without hesitation, he told me - “If you truly believe in the rule of law, then you should fear nothing.” That statement became one of the foundations of my life. From that moment forward, I understood that accountability means nothing if it only applies to the weak. Transparency means nothing if powerful officials are protected from scrutiny. And the rule of law means nothing if those in authority are treated as untouchable. Those experiences shaped my belief that public office is not protection from accountability, but a greater obligation to uphold justice, integrity, and public trust regardless of political pressure, intimidation, threats, or personal consequences. Later, while I was in high school, I regularly visited the U.S. Library in the Shangani district to participate in debates about the 1980 American presidential election between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. Most people strongly supported President Carter because Reagan had publicly discussed reducing foreign aid and closing libraries abroad, which many interpreted as hostility toward Africa. But I was the only person openly supporting Reagan. Even at a young age, before ever living in America, I understood that U.S. politics is ultimately driven by strategic interests. I believed Reagan’s anti-communist position would push the United States to strengthen relations with Somalia in order to counter Soviet influence in Ethiopia during the Cold War. That prediction later proved correct when President Reagan welcomed Mohamed Siad Barre to the White House as Somalia became strategically important to the United States in the Horn of Africa. A U.S. Embassy official later asked me how I had predicted that outcome despite Reagan’s earlier rhetoric. The point is simple: I understand American politics deeply. I studied it long before I ever lived in the United States. I understand how narratives are manufactured, how fear is weaponized, how political fundraising works, and how strategic interests shape policy. What is truly at stake today is not personalities, clans, propaganda, or political camps. What is at stake is the survival of Somalia and the moral future of Somali communities around the world. The painful truth too many people refuse to admit is that corruption has become a cancer eating away the soul of our nation and poisoning parts of our communities abroad, including segments of the Somali American community where public suffering has become a business model for a small group of opportunists. For decades, billions intended for poor Somali citizens, displaced families, struggling mothers, hungry children, healthcare, education, reconstruction, and development disappeared into the pockets of corrupt officials, politically connected businessmen, fake NGOs, middlemen, and professional fraudsters enriching themselves in the name of the Somali people. Instead of confronting this ugly reality honestly, too many people chose silence, tribal protection, fear, propaganda, and public relations games. We glorify people who should be investigated. We celebrate individuals who mastered the art of manipulating donor systems, exploiting clan emotions, abusing welfare systems, and weaponizing poverty for personal enrichment. Anyone who dares expose this rotten system is attacked, isolated, smeared, threatened, or accused of “dividing the community.” Why? Because corruption is no longer treated as a crime by many people - it has become normalized by those benefiting directly or indirectly from the collapse of accountability and rule of law. That is exactly why I accepted the interview. I am grateful to Mr. Nawfal for giving me a global platform to expose corruption, constitutional violations, abuse of power, illegal evictions, looting of public resources, and the suffering of ordinary Somali citizens. Unlike many compromised media outlets controlled by political interests, intimidation, or clan calculations, his platform allowed these issues to reach millions globally. The real fear for some people is not Mario Nawfal - the real fear is exposure. Some of the loudest critics today were nowhere to be found when President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Speaker Adan Mohamed Nur attempted illegally removed me from Parliament, when President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud terminated illegally my salary, or when I challenged illegal constitutional amendments before the East African Court of Justice and needed support to cover enormous legal costs. None of these online patriots stood beside me then. Suddenly after interview with Mr. Nawfal, they appear pretending to defend Somali nationalism. What hypocrisy. But we must also confront another painful reality with honesty and courage - we have a responsibility to address the moral decay spreading inside parts of our own communities before it infects an entire new generation. Children absorb what they see from parents, relatives, elders, religious leaders, and community figures. If fraud, corruption, dishonesty, glorification of shortcuts, abuse of public systems, and disrespect for rule of law become normalized inside homes and communities, our youth will eventually see those behaviors as acceptable. That is how moral collapse spreads from one generation to another. We must build communities that glorify hard work, honesty, education, family values, accountability, dignity, ethics, and respect for the rule of law. Those are the values that create respected and successful communities anywhere in the world. If we continue denying these internal problems, we will keep giving political ammunition to figures such as Donald Trump and segments of the far-right movement that already seek to weaponize immigrant communities, including Somali Americans, for political gain. Denial will not protect us. Silence will not save us. Tribal emotions and propaganda campaigns will not solve the crisis. Real leadership is not pretending everything is fine. Real leadership is having the courage to diagnose cancer before it destroys an entire generation. Somalia and Somali communities abroad do not lack intelligence, talent, hardworking families, or potential. What we lack is the collective courage to hold ourselves accountable and rebuild a culture rooted in integrity, responsibility, education, dignity, and rule of law. I was raised by an honest father who never took one shilling beyond his lawful salary. He taught me that dignity begins with hard work, honesty, and refusing to steal from others. Those same values are how I raised my children in the United States. I will never normalize corruption simply because the criminals belong to my own community or clan. As my father used to say: “Nin xil qaaday eed qaaday.” And as my mother would say about endless critics sitting comfortably on the sidelines - “Habar guriga fadhidaa lagdin wax uga fudud.” I have never changed my beliefs to satisfy crowds, political factions, donors, or online mobs, and I will not start now. I will continue speaking against corruption, dictatorship, fraud, abuse of power, and theft of Somali public resources on any platform available - whether some people like it or not. Because real love for Somalia is not silence. Real love for Somalia is having the courage to tell uncomfortable truths before the damage becomes irreversible. @shokonoda @amnesty @HRW @UKinSomalia @HouseForeignGOP @realDonaldTrump @StateDept @SpeakerJohnson @susiewiles2024 @HassanSMohamud @TheVillaSomalia @HamzaAbdiBarre @AadanMadobe @SomaliainQatar @MOFAKuwait @UAEinSomalia @ChineseSomalia @KSAmofaEN @US2SOMALIA @EU_in_Somalia @ItalyinSomalia @UNSomalia @TC_MogadisuBE @UNDPSomalia @WorldBankAfrica @IMFAfrica @CanHCKenya @SwissEmbassyKE @MarioNawfal

@Tobs_fc His team can hold it

You won golden boot before Messi. He overtook you. You won Ballon D’or before Messi. He overtook you. He is still coming for your goals record. 😭😭

@enzo_rbc For me is Barcelona..

Chelsea fans who do you hate the most Manchester United Barcelona Arsenal

@Afc_Nels2 Respect your daddy

• Didier Drogba: 10 years in the PL, 254 apps, 104 goals while playing with Lampard etc • Robert Lewandowski: In only the UCL. 144 apps, and he scored 109 goals.

@CULER_PETER Look at ur legend celebrating an equalizer knowing away goal rule & a robbery took them to a final. Y’all Barca fans are retards

Away goal rule was the most heartless rule ever man.

@ATL_Madridfan @dizzy10_ Respect ur daddy. U know the sort of goals he used to score past your bum GKs.

@dizzy10_ Nothing even excited about his bum ass football

No football fan will be awake at midnight just to watch Cristiano Ronaldo play football , not even his delusional fanbase..

@MadridXtra There’s a reason he said chelsea and Real Madrid..

🗣️ Yan Diomande: “Imagine people say you go to Chelsea or Real Madrid to do this job, you’re going to be happy and motivated to do more.”

@743Dharper I guess they were the underdogs here 😂

Lies. The "underdog gimmick" started in our UCL run from Barcelona to Bayern in 2012. As at 2008, Manchester United vs Chelsea was always a strong battle btw two heavy weights. Even Evra, a Manutd legend said: • Beating Man City was silencing the nosy neighbors". • "Beating Liverpool was beating the enemy". • "Beating Chelsea meant we were going to win the title". Chelsea were in no place underdogs against United from that dominant 2005-2010 era.
