I asked a mate about who EM was directing his post match press conference comments at. He said there was a fairly heated and protracted argument between EM and the SD’s.
I assume the media will say the comments were directed at the owners. Who knows, who cares!

He made it pretty clear that it wasn’t aimed at the fans, that leaves the club (SD’s) or the press. I don’t think the press have been particularly scathing, given the poor run of form and the attention Salah-gate has received. In a previous conference, earlier in the season, he made it clear the transfer window hadn’t gone how he’d have liked.
Pretty obvious where he would point the finger during a run of poor results. Form aside, I can picture this finishing in a very similar manor to Sarri, a publicly amicable split.

Tom
Please correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Maresca say when he joined that he only wanted to be involved on the field and not with selling or buying players.

I suppose it could be social media. From what im told it’s generally been pretty awful towards CFC, the manager and certain players.
The guy who nuts happened to mention it as we were chatting about the game used to work for Chelsea at Cobham. He retired a few years ago but still has a few mates there. Having said that he has got plenty of things wrong in the last few years.

I have heard. Its his usage of estevao. Mainly that the SD don't agree with. They believe while cole has been out he should of been starting.

Bill, correct me if I’m wrong but wouldn’t it depend what was said and by whom?
14 Dec 2025 12:28:41
Not sure what you mean Tom, can you elaborate further?

Bill, because this was apparently due to an at the moment remarks not what was contractually agreed. I would assume the SD’s haven’t got team selection or tactics in their job description. It doesn’t have to be the fault of EM.
