VAR cheated Manchester City again: Watch How Kyle Walker was Fouled and VAR ruled it out – PGMOL explained why Penalty was not giving– Not fair for England Referees as they seems to be favouring Chelsea and against Manchester City to win the league

Before facing off against his former club Manchester City, Cole Palmer, now playing for Chelsea, was visibly thrilled for his return to familiar territory.

 

Palmer, aged 21, spent over a decade with City after progressing through their academy ranks before making the switch to Chelsea during the summer transfer period. Since joining Chelsea, Palmer has been in sensational form, contributing 14 goals and nine assists in 31 appearances under the management of Mauricio Pochettino.

 

Upon his return to the Etihad Stadium, Palmer received warm greetings from many of his former teammates in the tunnel ahead of the highly anticipated clash between Chelsea and the reigning Premier League champions.

 

Notable among those greeting Palmer were Kyle Walker, Rodri, and Erling Haaland. Palmer enthusiastically engaged in conversations with them, reflecting the camaraderie among players despite being on opposing teams. However, such interactions have faced criticism from various quarters within the Premier League.

 

One prominent critic of pre-game camaraderie is Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane. Known for his no-nonsense attitude during his playing days with Manchester United, Keane has been vocal about what he perceives as a lack of intensity among modern players.

 

Keane particularly singled out an embrace between Andre Onana and Aaron Ramsdale in the tunnel before a match between Manchester United and Arsenal, expressing his disappointment at what he sees as a departure from the fierce competitive spirit that characterized his era.

 

For Keane, the tunnel interactions of yesteryears were emblematic of the mental preparation for battle, a mindset he believes is essential for success in high-stakes encounters.
