Chelsea managerial candidate, Abel Ferreira tells Erik Ten Hag to shut up

By -
Palmeiras manager, Abel Ferreira has responds to Erik Ten Hag's endless complains of the club's congested fixtures, by telling the Dutchman to shut up.


The Manchester United boss did not hide his displeasure after Marcus Rashford limped off the field in a 2-0 win over Everton at Old Trafford in the early Premier League kickoff on Saturday.

Rashford hobbled off less than ten minutes from time, minutes after assisting Anthony Martial for the second goal of the game, and Ten Hag has blamed the occurrence on the hectic fixtures, challenging the Premier League to make amendments.

It was United's third game already in April with six more to come despite the postponement of their league meeting with Chelsea due to the FA Cup trip to Brighton.

Commenting on Ten Hag's reaction, 44year old Abel Ferreira, who is being linked with the vacant managerial position at Chelsea said to the media; 

“The Manchester United coach complains because Rashford got hurt and that is a consequence of the number of games he has. I'd like to ask him, 'Look, in these two months, I've got nine games each month. Shut up man, you don't know what you're talking about.”


The Portuguese did not forget to aim a dig at fixture schedulers in Brazil, and his sentiments will be felt by football fans arcoss the globe.

“We have to change this. Forgive me those who don't like to hear it. We have to reduce the number of games. Whoever decides has to humanise this. Money is not everything. It is possible, with fewer games, to earn money. If the product is good, people pay."

“Football here has some fantastic qualities, but there are others that are not human. To have nine games in a month...”

Palmeiras themselves have played three times this month and six more is to come across three different competitions.

Manchester United host Sevilla in the Europa League quarter final first leg on Thursday evening.

Another Newcastle defeat means time to go BIG on Eddie Howe might be about right

Eddie Howe's Newcastle United falled to a sixth defeat in seven games as Nottingham Forest sealed a 3-1 comeback win in the Saint James' Park, adding to their Champions League and Carabao Cup elimination in December while they continue to drop down the Premier League table. Credits to the Englishman, however, he is not in an elite level. A project like Newcastle United's is in a stage where you say thank you very much to Eddie Howe, a bid him farewell. It was a miracle, what the former AFC Bournemouth boss has done in his just more than two years at the helm of affairs in Tyneside and after the club failed to make the statement upon their UEFA Champions League qualification, the time couldn't be more right. Eddie Howe took charge of Newcastle United when the club was deep down the bottom of the Premier League standing and helped them become the first-ever to avoid relegation having not won a single game up until Gameweek 14 in the competition's history.

Rasmus Hojlund has emerged as a real target for Manchester United as they look to secure a main goalscorer, who will lead the lines for the club on a long-term. Erik Ten Hag has opted for a different approach compared to previous managers of United in recent times, whom had all gone for players of different status. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Odion Ighalo, Edinson Cavani, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wout Weghorst are strikers the club has signed post Sir Alex Ferguson era, all of whom arrived at the club in their 30s. With Hojlund, United are looking to sign someone who just turned 20, though still has a lot more to learn to master the trade but at the same time, he has got the potentials to become one of the best around. The striker position has been a major issue for the club as many of those who had been signed has not lived up to expectations, while those who did ended up leaving due to their already ending careers. Cristiano Ronaldo and maybe Zlatan Ibrahimovic are the only two names who have m

Aside his conquests with Napoli, the 24-year-old striker was also unplayable in the AFCON qualifiers, scoring ten goals in six games and finishing as top scorer of the qualificatio
