Liam Rosenior is hardly the only problem at Chelsea - BlueCo’s model is a misguided fallacy.
But Rosenior is the personification of that model and he’s failing on every level.

Cardiff City have been rebuilt under Brian Barry-Murphy: young team, Welsh core, a new identity with fans at its heart.
The message to the club: this has to be the start, not the end

Few clubs have known pain like Coventry City. But all the fighting, campaigning, crying and hurting was worth it, in the end.
From Ewood Park, on a monumental victory for resilience.

Morgan Gibbs-White was bought by Nottingham Forest as a luxury player. He has become everything else too: worker, runner, presser, goalscorer, captain, leader by example.

On Saturday, I experienced a live game as a blind supporter does. It was one of the most fascinating days I've had in football.
These are the things I learned, and some of them are important.

Yes, mentioned in piece! It's such a good idea and I really hope it's not just one of those ideas that gets talked up and doesn't actually land in the laps of regular fans

Liverpool tried to play at double speed, but PSG were the ones who could actually cope with that tempo.
This tie felt like an audition for Arne Slot's future, proof of whether he could bridge the gap. I don't think he's there next season.

The wildest tale in English football this season is easy: Gateshead and the greatest escape of all.
Manager Rob Eliott walked me through the miracle.

Really hoping that they both win this weekend as I'm down to go to the final day shootout

Tomorrow I'm at Wigan for a piece with a difference. Am accompanying a registered blind supporter for the day.
I'll have glasses that replicate his experience and use audio equipment to tell the story of live football for the blind and understand how technology is improving.
In January, there was talk of protests at Southampton after repeated serious errors. Now they're the form team in the country.
A piece on a baffling club, a baffling season and a novice manager coming good.

I spent Easter weekend behind the scenes with Lincoln City as they confirmed promotion to the second tier for the first time in 65 years.
This is the story of the most overachieving club in England.

Arsenal are wobbling because they are making mistakes, but also because they are fighting a tide of self-fulfillment. The storm only whips up stronger...

The geopolitical issues are getting louder. So is Trump's hostility. So is the rhetoric. None can be allowed to define the World Cup. It might be too late.

Losses of £262m and selling your stadium to yourself: it has been a good week for English football’s gross Monopoly money culture.

Maybe you're right, but it's absolutely not a ridiculous opinion to consider him as the best player in the world this season. As backed up by the numbers and the Ballon Dor consideration
Why is it? He has scored 53 goals in 45 games and is second fav for the Ballon Dor behind Yamal and I think his form has been better this season
Ha yes, mentioned as part of the curse!
In Harry Kane, England might have the current best player in the world for the first time in their history. That is both a great blessing and a potential curse - Kane will define the summer.

Elite football must end its "Trust me, bro" culture of communication. Underperforming sporting directors should be fronting up to supporters.
