Goalkeepers do so much for their teams, yet they are rarely considered serious contenders for the Ballon d’Or. Instead, they are boxed into the Best Goalkeeper in the World category. Why can’t they be given the same consideration as outfield players for football’s biggest individual award?

He needs to leave Barcelona and move to PSG. That useless Catalan club will ruin his chances of ever winning the Ballon d’Or.

First impressions matter, and the impression Mike Penders has given me is that he cannot be trusted. Against Everton, his first attempt to deal with a ball in the box was to punch it straight out for a throw-in to the opponent, even though it wasn’t the best option. We were two goals up, and the game was almost over. I took note but said nothing. He repeated the same mistake against Tottenham, and this time, it led to a goal. I want Martínez back ASAP. Penders has given me little reason to believe he has a future at Chelsea.
