I know we say this often, but it’s going to be a late night tonight.

Emma Hayes says the title is 'not to be' and adds: 'I'm not going to be harsh on the players, after everything they've delivered over a long period. I don't want to be an ars***** about it. I want to make sure they feel supported by me until the end.' Telegraph Sport #ChelseaFCW

He was my colleague at TUDN from whom I learned a lot. This is his call when Cruz Azul broke their 2+ decade championship drought 💙
