Former Chelsea Player, Mikel Obi Urges Chelsea Manager to Take Tips from Pep Guardiola
Former Chelsea Player, John Obi Mikel suggests that Chelsea Manager, Enzo Maresca should learn the movements from Manchester City’s Manager.
The former player shared that Chelsea might be out of moves and needs to be as strategic as Manchester City. He stated that their current approach has been learnt by the other teams for the Premier League.
“We’ve been found out. The premier league is where clubs study you. I have said it so many times. Clubs study how you play and straight away they will stop you from doing exactly what you know how to.”
“So you need to find a different way. You need to learn how to tweak things, just like Pep Guardiola is doing right now. Manchester city are not playing 20 passes to get to where they want.”
“We saw against Newcastle at the weekend they went direct. You need to be creative and find a different way of winning games. Right now we’re not doing that. The players look like they’re out of ideas.”

Thierry Henry Criticises Taking Dressing Room Issues to the Press
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”

Walid Acherchour Backs Lamine Yamal to Win 2026 Ballon d’Or
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
