We've Won It All

An incredibly proud personal moment watching the banner I created alongside @onlyapound, Steve Clint & @kingarnanda make its Stamford Bridge debut last night. 🙌 Huge thanks to DJ for the opportunity & to everyone who left a kind message or comment 🤝 Serious goosebumps 💙 #CFC

Dear football, Today, I want to share with you that this season will be my last as a professional footballer. After so many years living my dream, I feel it’s time to start a new chapter in my life. Being honest, even though I have been preparing myself for this moment, I found it hard to write this letter. After 20 seasons , many people have played an important role in my career. When I first kicked a ball as a child in Pamplona with my schoolmates, I never imagined the amazing journey ahead. I’m grateful for every moment: the wins, the tough losses, the challenges, and most of all, the people I’ve met and the friendships I’ve made along the way. To my teammates, coaches, and every staff member at all the clubs I’ve been lucky to be part of, thank you for helping me grow as a person and a player every day. Wearing the shirts of CA Osasuna, Olympique Marseille, Chelsea FC, Atlético de Madrid, Sevilla FC, and representing my country at the biggest stages has been a true privilege. Every moment has meant so much to me…

@SouthamptonFC 😂😂😂😂😂

Working towards Hull 💪

🔴 Chelsea are shaping up for a legal battle with Manchester City over their putative appointment of Enzo Maresca, who left Stamford Bridge in contested circumstances at the start of the year @SamWallaceTel has the full story ⤵️ telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

@henrywinter More like bribers. Never seen so many VAR decisions go in one direction in a season.

To think that some people felt that Arsenal were bottlers. More like battlers. They ground out another win, this time over a dogged Burnley, to take them to within touching distance of a first Premier League title in 22 years. If not quite the Invincibles – Arsene Wenger's record-breakers were a better side – this team of Mikel Arteta’s are certainly the Indomitables. They keep facing down adversity, injury, challenges, obdurate opponents. They are not always the greatest to watch, unless Bukayo Saka is weaving his way into the area, twisting left-backs inside out, but they are supremely resilient. Players stood up to counted under pressure. David Raya in goal. Gabriel at centre-back. Declan Rice, the best player in the league this season, shielding the defence and driving Arsenal forward. Viktor Gyokeres, maligned initially, now celebrated for his 14 goals in this league campaign. Arsenal’s spine has been strong. Arteta rotated well. Kai Havertz started and scored against Burnley. Arteta subbed well. Havertz removed quickly after risking a red with a dangerous challenge. So close now. Arsenal will deserve this title for holding their nerve when so many questioned them. #AFC

VAR to the rescue for Arsenal's season: 🟥 Havertz narrowly escapes a Red Card for a shocking tackle on Burnley’s Ugochukwu. ❌ Saliba's kick on Barry went unpunished, with Everton missing out on a penalty—PGMOL later acknowledged this mistake. 🟥 Gabriel should have received a red for violent conduct after a head-to-head clash with Erling Haaland. 🟥 Once again, Gabriel should have been sent off for hitting Nick Woltemade with a fist to the face. ❌ West Ham's hopes for an equaliser dashed in the dying moments as Rice and Trossard both rugby tackled opponents. What else did I overlook? 🤔🤔

3 of these were red cards. One wasn't. PGMOL again demonstrating they are either a) embarrassingly inconsistent, or b) corrupt. Independent regulator review needed. Total accountability needed.

Premier league clubs have been officiated entirely differently all season. Never seen it this bad

@CFC_dennoh @EstevaoExtra Cracking performance 😉

Hincapie 😂

This run from Premier League referees is all time hall of shame. Embarrassing beyond belief. How is that not a red for Havertz?!

Another refereeing triumph.

More corruption. Awesome.

That’s not a red card?!? Pathetic officiating again.

"Best decision Chelsea have made since Abramovich, a guarantee of success" Sky Germany's Uli Kohler says Xabi Alonso is an "incredible manager" after he was appointed Chelsea manager today 🔵

Chelsea's appointment of Xabi Alonso kills the club's culture of excuses. The players will only have themselves to blame if it goes wrong. And the owners must trust their first 'manager' to be just that #CFC telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

✍🏻 Ignore the nonsense at Real Madrid: Xabi Alonso has all the tools to be a managerial great… Chelsea have landed a diamond with a vision. This is what Stamford Bridge can expect telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

I just don’t see how you can argue Cucu doesn’t have to deviate his run around Semenyo who’s offside in order to get to Haaland. There’s a clear sidestep

A long-read on Xabi Alonso to #CFC ahead of this morning's announcement ⌛️ 🤔 Why club have given him 'manager' title 📘 Chapter six of BlueCo's book 👊 44yo will command respect 🧠 What Kylian Mbappe thinks ⚠️ Most important decision yet ➕ And much more football.london/chelsea-fc/new…

No attempt to play the ball. Why is this not a foul?

you've just gotta laugh at this point haven't you
