Chelsea have appointed Frank Arnesen to the role of sporting director at Stamford Bridge.
Roman Abramovich met John Terry yesterday as Chelsea called their captain’s bluff over his highly public flirtation with Manchester City. The Russian billionaire will reject a third, £30m-plus bid for their captain this week and has told Terry there is no intention of matching City’s offer to double his pay to £250,000 a week.
The Special One is two-faced towards his players. That is the suggestion about Jose Mourinho made by his former defender Glen Johnson, at least. Johnson, who the Portuguese manager jettisoned from Chelsea in 2006, rehabilitated his career at Portsmouth and after establishing himself as an England regular was unveiled as a £17m signing by Liverpool last week. He said he would like nothing better than to be drawn against Mourinho’s Internazionale in the Champions League “to show him what he missed”, adding: “There were a lot of things he told me that weren’t true.”
A MANAGERLESS Newcastle side featuring Joey Barton, Nicky Butt and Kevin Nolan registered only their second win in 15 matches when they ran out comfortable 3-0 winners against a second-string Shamrock Rovers team in Dublin.
