“Sancho Has Talent, But He Can’t Perform” – Gallas on Chelsea Winger
Former Chelsea defender William Gallas believes Jadon Sancho isn’t doing enough to earn a permanent stay at the club. Gallas advised Chelsea to reconsider signing the England international permanently, saying Sancho hasn’t shown he can deliver consistently for the West London side.
Sancho’s performance in Chelsea’s recent 1-0 loss to Arsenal at the Emirates, where Mikel Merino’s first-half header secured the win, left Gallas unimpressed.
“Sancho is talented — everyone knows that — but for some reason, he just isn’t performing,” Gallas told Stadium Astro. “He was brilliant at Dortmund, but things didn’t work out at Manchester United. When he first came to Chelsea, we saw glimpses of that Dortmund form, but now he seems to have faded again.”
Gallas suggested that Chelsea might need to think twice before making Sancho’s move permanent unless he steps up his game.
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.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
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.”
