One football pundit has decided to go on a bit of an honest rant directed towards one current Chelsea player right now who has ‘gone backwards.’
It’s been a relatively quiet news week so far for Chelsea and really, since the transfer window closed. But there is one man making the headlines this week and perhaps we don’t really want him to be.
A lot is being said and written about Jadon Sancho this week, with the on loan Manchester United player in the headlines for taking a pop at his current employers.
Sancho will join Chelsea in the summer, that has become clear, and Sancho clearly knows this and that is why he feels comfortable enough to put out some digs at United.
Former Crystal Palace owner turned pundit Simon Jordan, is not amused with Sancho’s actions this week, and has gone in on him a bit too.

When asked what he thought about the situation, Jordan told talkSPORT: “Not very much to be honest with you. I think what Jadon Sancho has to say is not particularly relevant to Marcus Rashford’s situation. I don’t think he’s covered himself in glory.
“He’s had a few decent games for Chelsea but other than that, a few decent games for Dortmund. But his career has gone backwards, he’s responsible for it not anyone else and this is the sort of atypical response from people that always like to align other people with the blame or their current failings.
“I think it’s a sad indication of where United have gotten to to think that people can speak about the club in this way. I think the underlying message is that you’re out of the awful place that Man United has become.
“A place that has been created by the culture of players there and I would suggest that players like Jadon Sancho who only like it when they’re told all the good things. They can’t really deal with any home truths or they can’t have any consequences for their actions because if they do, they don’t like it.”
