“STOP THE BLAME, I AM NOT THE PROBLEM”, Chelsea FLOP Captain Reece James Caution Chelsea Fans As He Expose Those Behind The Team’s Recent Failures
Fans are very angry at Reece James for getting a “stupid” red card in Chelsea’s 4-1 loss at Newcastle. They say things like “worst captain at Chelsea” and “that was dumb.”
People are mad that Reece James, the leader of Chelsea, got a red card in their 4-1 loss at Newcastle United on November 25.Alexandre Isak gave Newcastle the lead in the 13th minute. Ten minutes later, Raheem Sterling tied the game for Chelsea, so both teams went into the break tied.
At the hour mark, though, Jamaal Lascelles and Joelinton scored within a minute of each other, putting the game out of the Blues’ reach. The away team’s job got harder when their captain James got a second yellow card for a foul on Gordon 17 minutes from time and was sent off.
The Magpies sealed the win with Gordon’s goal in the 83rd minute. Mauricio Pochettino’s team lost their fifth of 13 league games this season. Fans were furious with James for getting his second yellow card, which got him sent off. One tweeted, “Worst captain at Chelsea.”
Someone else spoke up:
“A captain gave two stupid yellow cards. That was a bad idea.
What people are saying on X (which used to be called Twitter):
Edgar Howe, the manager of Newcastle United, praised his team’s spirit and toughness in their game against Chelsea on Saturday. After losing their last few games in different tournaments, the Magpies got back to winning ways in a big way.
Three unanswered goals finally got the Blues down. A great free kick by Raheem Sterling had tied the game. In the end, James’ late red card made things even worse for the guests.Howe told Premier League Productions (via BBC) about the good things about his team on that day: “It was a real statement of character within the squad.” People were really asked to step up, and we deserved to win. Today had a lot of good things. Jamaal Lascelles, Kieran Trippier, and Matt Ritchie set the tone for the group. They make sure we don’t give up.
Chelsea’s next game is on December 3 at home against Brighton & Hove Albion in the league. On Tuesday, Newcastle plays PSG in the UEFA Champions League.
