EPL: Absolute disgrace – Neville slams Chelsea stars after latest defeat
Manchester United legend Gary Neville has slammed Chelsea players, describing them as disgusting, shambles, pathetic and a disgrace.
This was following their latest woeful 3-1 defeat to Arsenal on Tuesday
Martin Odegaard (2), and Gabriel Jesus scored in the first half to give the Gunners a comfortable lead. Noni Madueke grabbed a consolation goal for the Blues on the night.
It was Chelsea’s sixth consecutive defeat in six games under Lampard.
Neville, a former Manchester United defender, was disgusted with Chelsea’s performance at the Emirates Stadium.
“Disgusting. It was the best team on paper I’ve ever seen play as badly as that. It was a shambles in the first half. Pathetic,” he told Sky Sports.
“There were World Cup winners, internationals, so expensive – I can’t believe it.
“What we’ve seen since is nothing short of a disgrace.”

EPL: Liverpool in talks with Arne Slot to replace Klopp
Liverpool have opened talks with Feyenoord about appointing Arne Slot as their new manager.
According to Sky Sports, Slot is now the favourite to replace Jurgen Klopp at Anfield.
The Dutchman is believed to tick all their key criteria for the role and the process could move quickly with the 45-year-old keen to join the Reds.
Slot lifted the KNVB Cup last weekend and guided Feyenoord to their first title in six years last season.
He appeals to Liverpool due to his aggressive, full-throttle style.
Slot’s penchant for a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation also fits Liverpool’s squad.

EPL: Lee Sharps wants ex-PSG coach to replace Ten Hag at Man Utd
Former Manchester Player, Lee Sharps wants former Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery to replace Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag’s long-term future at Man United is unclear because of the Re Devils’ performances this season.
Man United currently sit outside of the Premier League top four behind the likes of Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City.
“If I were choosing and Erik ten Hag was to go, Unai Emery would be at the top of my list.
“I think given the support and the full backing, he could replicate what he has done at [Aston] Villa. I think he’d be a class manager for United.”
