🚨🗣️ John Terry on the constant controversial refereeing decisions going against Chelsea recently: “I honestly think it's about time Xabi Alonso spoke up about the wrong calls going against Chelsea this season. You cannot keep watching the same questionable decisions go against this football club week after week and expect everyone to remain silent. The standard of officiating we've witnessed in some of these Premier League games is simply unacceptable, and at some point, somebody has to stand up and demand accountability. “I look back at the Chelsea teams I played in, and I can tell you one thing: José Mourinho would never have tolerated this kind of bizarre officiating against Chelsea. He would have challenged the officials, questioned the decisions and made it absolutely clear that this club would not simply accept being treated this way. Mourinho was never afraid to speak his mind, especially when he felt his players and the football club were being unfairly treated. “Chelsea have worked too hard, built too much and achieved too much for these repeated controversial decisions to become something we are expected to accept. Every manager, player and supporter can see what's happening. It's frustrating when you give everything on the pitch, only for decisions that can completely change the outcome of a game to go against you. Xabi Alonso needs to understand that sometimes protecting your players and standing up for your football club goes beyond what happens on the training ground or during a match. You also have to speak when things aren't right. Chelsea need a manager who isn't afraid to challenge these decisions and make his voice heard. Silence isn't always the answer.”

🚨🛫 NEW: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia spotted in Chelsea colours in a new photo after his ACL injury.

🚨 BREAKING: PGMOL have reportedly started an investigation into referee Jarred Gillett over his decisions in Chelsea vs Sunderland. They will review the penalty given to Sunderland, the yellow card given to Neto after a 50/50 challenge with Reinildo Mandava and other controversial decisions made by the ref during the game. If found guilty, Gillett could face a four-year suspension, a huge fine and demotion to refereeing in the championship.

🚨🗣️ José Mourinho: “I've always said that the referees have never been fair to Chelsea. People talk about the history of the club, but nobody wants to acknowledge how many decisions have gone against the club over the years. That's why Chelsea have only won 6 Premier League titles and haven't won the league in 10 years. When you look at some of the decisions other clubs get, you begin to understand why the gap is there. It's not always about the players or the manager. Sometimes, you have to look at what's happening on the pitch. “When I retire, I am going to become a pundit so I can defend Chelsea and expose these referees on television.”

6 goals in 6 premier league games for Nicolas Jackson. While Chelsea are stuck with injury prone joao Pedro, a 40 yr old Danny Welbeck, and a failed musician. Thank you xabi.

What a block from pep chavarria. would've been a Sunderland goal there

Having Caicedo in this game has increased my confidence level by 80%. The defence isn't looking very good but I trust Lavia and Caicedo to protect that backline. Let's go chels

This is surely the best XI we can put out today against Sunderland. Henderson for Caicedo if Caicedo doesn't make it. Estevao honestly deserves to start after that performance against United. Fofana had a good second half against United. Hopefully, he carries that form into this game. Martinez over penders just because of experience. Penders has been exceptional in the last two games but I would prefer a much more experienced Martinez to start over him if Martinez is available.

Looking back, these players were never the problem. Maresca ruined them at Chelsea.

Ageing like fine 🍷 Ronaldo at 31. Ronaldo at 41.

I froze and slowly turned towards the door. Then my landlord screamed through the phone: "Don't open it! That's the woman in the photographs. She's been missing for three years!" Suddenly, the knocking stopped. A message appeared on my phone from an unknown number. It read: "Thank you for finding my pictures. Now tell him I know where he buried me."
