John Obi Mikel has strongly criticised Chelsea for their failure to sign a midfield replacement after selling Enzo Fernandez to Manchester City. The former midfielder believes this £125 million transfer mistake is directly responsible for Xabi Alonso's defensive issues this season, pointing out that the team desperately misses the injured Moises Caicedo to protect the defence.
The fallout from a controversial Manchester derby continues as Pro Ref officials have confirmed that the VAR team responsible for awarding Erling Haaland’s winning goal has been stood down. Manchester City secured all three points at Old Trafford, but the decision-making process behind the game's only goal has led to significant disciplinary action.
