Ikpeba says for Chelsea poor results blame players, manager Potter

Former Super Eagles striker, Victor Ikpeba has revealed that Chelsea players and not Graham Potter was the major problem behind the team’s poor run of results in the Premier League.
The Atlanta Olympic gold medalist made this known to journalists he stated that Chelsea’s hierarchy should have continued with Potter until the end of the season.
Potter was sacked as Chelsea manager last weekend after the team’s Premier League 2-0 home defeat to Aston Villa.
Ikpeba also blamed Potter for using striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang regularly in his team.
“It’s unfortunate [that Graham Potter was sacked]. In football, it is about results. When you look at the timelines, the statistics from when he [Potter] took over, you cannot argue that the players are not doing enough,” Ikpeba said.
“The truth of the matter is that I don’t know why he doesn’t have faith in Aubameyang. You can’t win games without strikers. There are no strikers in this Chelsea side.
“You have a lot of attacking players in the team. Joao Felix, who came from Atletico Madrid, you can’t question his creativity, but he’s not a player that can score two digits goals for you. They just bought these players from everywhere.
“I think the Chelsea owners and recruitment department must take responsibility for what is happening at Chelsea.
“Sacking a manager nine or ten games to the end of the season won’t solve this problem. They should have kept faith in Potter until the end of the season and say: ‘you have done your best bye bye,” he added.

Barca Pissed As Yamal Caught In All Night Romp With Strange Model
Recently, Barcelona’s young star Lamine Yamal has once again found himself embroiled in off-field controversy. Just days after the defeat in the Clásico, on Monday local time last week, he was photographed travelling to Milan with several friends.
According to renowned paparazzo Jordi Martín, Yamal attended a party with a prominent Italian model during his trip and spent the night with her – a woman who is not his current girlfriend. Rumours suggest Yamal had previously shared an ambiguous relationship with this model before he began dating his current partner.
During his stay in Milan, Yamal attended a party with a prominent model who was not his current girlfriend Nicki Nicole. It is understood that this model, Anna Gegnoso, is Italian and rumoured to have had a prior romantic connection with Yamal before his relationship with Nicki Nicole began.
According to the photographer, Yamal first attended the party with Anna that evening before the pair spent the night together at Milan’s Armani Hotel – an incident that would undoubtedly displease Nicki Nicole should it prove true. Furthermore, Yamal and his accompanying friends deliberately obstructed media personnel from capturing photographs and footage at the scene.
Jordi Martin further disclosed that this behaviour has provoked considerable displeasure among Barcelona’s club hierarchy. They have grown weary of Yamal’s lifestyle. Several weeks prior, whilst injured, he flew to Croatia for a holiday with Nicki Nicole, publicly sharing photos of their trip on social media – an act that already drew criticism.
This latest incident – reportedly flying to Milan for revelry within hours of the Clásico defeat – has only exacerbated the situation. Particularly given his lacklustre performance against Real Madrid, he now finds himself dominating headlines for off-field reasons.
These successive off-field incidents, coupled with his earlier controversial remarks about Real Madrid at an event, have increasingly raised concerns within Barcelona’s ranks. Club officials fear he is becoming increasingly overwhelmed by this “noise,” drifting away from his core focus on football
