El Everton ha echado sal en la herida del Chelsea al burlarse de Alejandro Garnacho en las redes sociales tras la contundente victoria por 3-0 de los Toffees sobre los Blues. La cuenta oficial de TikTok del club de Merseyside compartió un vídeo recopilatorio en el que se veía al extremo argentino sin conseguir destacar, acompañado de un comentario mordaz sobre el ambiente en el estadio Hill Dickinson.
Según se informa, el Chelsea ha tomado una decisión definitiva sobre el futuro del entrenador Liam Rosenior, en medio de una preocupante racha de malos resultados. A pesar de haber sufrido cuatro derrotas consecutivas y de haber encajado 12 goles en ese periodo, el técnico de 41 años sigue contando con el pleno respaldo de la directiva de Stamford Bridge.
La leyenda del Manchester United, Nicky Butt, ha mostrado su apoyo a Frank Lampard para que asuma su tercera etapa como entrenador del Chelsea, en un momento en que aumenta la presión sobre el actual técnico, Liam Rosenior. El excentrocampista del Chelsea ha relanzado su reputación como entrenador en la Championship, llevando al Coventry City hacia un tan esperado regreso a la Premier League. Butt cree que la evolución de Lampard como entrenador lo convierte en el candidato ideal para enderezar el rumbo en Stamford Bridge.
