Calvin Bassey Blames Bad Luck for Fulham’s Loss to Man United
Fulham defender Calvin Bassey expressed his frustration after the Cottagers suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Craven Cottage.
Speaking with TNT Sports, Bassey shared his disappointment, emphasizing that Fulham deserved a better result.
“We controlled the game and had plenty of chances, but it just wasn’t our day,” the Nigerian international said. “Football sometimes needs a bit of luck, and today, it didn’t go our way.”
Fulham’s defence kept United at bay for most of the match, with Bassey noting that the Red Devils didn’t pose much of a threat.
“They didn’t create too much to trouble us, but we know the quality they have. We had enough opportunities, but maybe we could have been sharper in the final moments,” he added.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
