“He Struggled All Game”: Wayne Rooney Criticizes Reece James’ Display Against Arsenal
Manchester United Legend, Wayne Rooney criticizes Chelsea’s team captain, Reece James.
The criticism comes after the team’s recent defeat to Arsenal on the Premier League clash on Sunday. The Man U legend shares that James struggled throughout the game and was constantly focused on Declan Rice.
“I just felt that Reece James had a job to do today, and he was man-marking Declan Rice—which, coming back from injury, is very difficult to do.”
“I felt he struggled all game. He’s trying to play the role the manager has given him, but I think he found it tough.”
“But as play progresses, Reece James is always thinking about Declan Rice—there’s no other thought in his head.”
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.”
