Dude, Red Cards affect the Carabao Cup, right? If this is true, Richarlison should be back for the Arsenal game.

Nope red cards are competition specific this season to prevent manipulation by deliberately getting suspended for cup games. So he misses 3 PL games hahaha. I said to a colleague at work I hope Richarlison gets sent off today because I don't have him in my FPL team. Glad God listened!

Nah Bro, i think the new rule affects only Yellow cards. Red Cards still apply across all competitions.

Yeah, game was a photocopy of last year vs pec...they were better but again lucky luuk stole it in the final min of the game.

Ajax has an amazing squad this year, I think theyll do well in Europe...

Sidenote: Ten Hag is an excellent coach imo but he gets hated on cause hes from the east of the country and speaks with a ridiculous accent lol...man is under extra pressure and doesnt really know how to carry himself infront of the camera...dutch journalists are some arrogant mofos lol, they wont let that man cook.

I thought the Richarlison red card was weak tbh, Smith looked stupid making a meal out of that... Glad he got sent over later, karma...

End of the day hopefully Richarlison will learn from it, any time you make an aggressive gesture with your head players and refs will make a meal outta it...
 
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich 'puts club up for sale with bank valuing Premier League side at £2BILLION'
  • Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is reportedly preparing to sell the club
  • He is said to have hired a New York bank to value the club and advise on the sale
  • Raine Group have reportedly valued the Premier League club at £2billion

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has hired New York bank Raine Group in preparation for selling off the club, according to The Sunday Times.

The bank is said to have valued the club at £2billion and Chelsea have engaged their advisors after they helped Manchester City sell a 13 per cent stake in the club to China Media Capital for £265m in 2015.

It is unclear whether they would look for new owners or to sell a stake in the club which Abramovich bought for £140m in 2003 but the move comes at a critical time for Chelsea, who look overwhelmed by the scale of the wealth of clubs such as Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain.

In May, following the political sanctions Great Britain imposed on Russia in response to the Salisbury poisoning, Chelsea announced that Abramovich was putting off a proposed £500m expansion of Stamford Bridge.

They have failed to qualify for the Champions League for the second time in three years, having previously qualified for the competition every year since Abramovich took over.

They have also still to convince Eden Hazard to sign a new contract or risk having to sell him to Real Madrid next summer when he will have just one more year on his deal.

Chelsea need to rebuild the team under new manager Maurizio Sarri after having allowed talents such as Mo Salah, Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku to leave the club in recent years.
