It seems to me however that Eidevall was justified in his complaint about the ball but probably not so in how he dealt with it. In the heat of the moment, with time running out in a cup final you are losing, no footballer is going to remember that the game was being played with a single ball system. They are just going to grab the nearest one and get it into play ASAP. Arsenal's manager was right to complain, he just shouldn't have addressed his complaint to the player. Get the ref's attention or talk to the fourth official. Weather Eidevall was aggressive or not I can't say, but I think it's hard to attach blame to either party. The player and the opposing manager both acted instinctively. The underlying factor here is that, although they try to hide it, these two managers don't like each other. The first time they faced off, Eidevall irritated Hayes which led to she and her squad reacting in a way that raised the temperature between them though not in a good way.🙂 Emma didn't like how Eidevall celebrated Arsenal's win that day. She stewed on it until we beat Arsenal to the title by defeating Man United on the last day of the season. She deliberately did a copycat of his celebration in a clear attempt to mock him. Worse, when we clinched the double at Wembley the next week, many members of the squad also mocked him with the same celebration. For his part, when Eidevall was invited to say something nice about Emma before she heads off to the States, the best he could come up with was that she had won a lot but that she had also spent a lot. Underlining this point by claiming that she had spent more in this January's transfer window alone than he, and his Arsenal predecessor, had spent in total over the last five seasons. As you youngsters say there is 'beef' there. Edited April 1, 2024 by OhForAGreavsie Vesper and OneMoSalah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,219 Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 Emma Hayes goes 'full Eric Cantona' reciting poem over Jonas Eidevall spat comments Chelsea boss Emma Hayes has responded to Jonas Eidevall's comments about her "irresponsibility" in a bizarre press conference ahead of the FA Cup semi-final https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/emma-hayes-Chelsea-eric-cantona-32575371 Chelsea manager Emma Hayes recited an American poet's quote in a wacky retort to Jonas Eidevall's jibes post-League Cup final spat. The Blues' boss went all literary, citing Robert Frost and playing it cool with a "no opinion" stance on Eidevall's beef over her supposed "irresponsibility" after last month's fiery cup showdown. The drama hit boiling point at the final whistle when Hayes seemed to shove her managerial rival and gave him a piece of her mind. Earlier sparks flew as Eidevall got into a tiff with Chelsea's Erin Cuthbert, who wanted to use a different football when both teams had agreed to only play with one ball before the match. Hayes had previously lashed out at the Arsenal manager for his "inappropriate" sideline shenanigans during Chelsea's Conti Cup tumble, accusing him of "male aggression" that she reckoned should've seen him sent off. Eidevall hit back, branding her remarks "irresponsible", but the FA didn't slap Hayes with any sanctions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just baffling. 🤣 Headline is maybe right mentioning Cantona moment. Utter dross. Emma Hayes quotes Robert Frost poem in response to Jonas Eidevall clash after Conti Cup final https://theathletic.com/5411126/2024/04/12/emma-hayes-poem-uswnt-eidevall/ Chelsea manager Emma Hayes recited a line from a Robert Frost poem in response to questions about her Arsenal counterpart Jonas Eidevall after the two clashed after last month’s Conti Cup final. Hayes — who will leave Chelsea at the end of the season to start her job as USWNT boss — and Eidevall disagreed on the touchline during the final at Molineux, before she appeared to push the Swede away from her after the match had concluded. In her post-match press conference immediately following the game — in which Arsenal’s Stina Blackstenius scored the final’s only goal in extra time — Hayes, 47, criticised the “male aggression” shown by Eidevall, who described her comments as “very irresponsible” and rejected her version of events. Hayes was asked about the incident on Friday and recalled a conversation with her son that took place following the Conti Cup final fallout. “My son said to me after the game, ‘Mummy, when you push someone in school you’re asked to go and take time out’,” Hayes said. “I said to him, ‘You know what darling, you can’t meet aggression with aggression, all you can do is tell the teacher, all you can do is go and explain why you think something’s unfair. That’s all you can do.’ “You cannot meet aggression with aggression. I thought it was a really good conversation to have with my son after the final.” GO DEEPER Hayes, Eidevall and a final chapter in the WSL's most intense managerial rivalry Hayes was then pressed on whether she stood by her post-match comments following the final, which the Chelsea boss responded to by reading four lines from Robert Frost’s poem Choose Something Like a Star. Frost’s 1943 poem is the narrator speaking to a star in the night sky, in which they are urging it to speak to them and provide clear answers. “So when at times the mob is swayed, to carry praise and blame too far, we may choose somewhere like a star, to stay our minds on and be staid,” Hayes quoted. When she was asked what she meant by reciting the poem, Hayes responded: “I’ve had a fantastic break, I’ve already explained an important analogy with my son and the lessons learned and my focus is on moving forward. I’ve had time to look at my star.” “I’m very happy with the way I conducted myself. Emotions are high in football,” Eidevall said earlier on Friday when asked about the incident. “There are two really competitive teams and they want to win so sometimes one team tries to stretch the rules and that’s fine — that’s what we have the referees for and they made sure we stayed to the agreed rules. From my perspective, I wouldn’t change anything.” The English FA confirmed last week Hayes will not face further action over the incident. “I thought the comments that I heard after the game were very irresponsible,” Eidevall added. “They were not mirroring the conduct that I had in the technical area. That I thought was irresponsible, but that’s all I basically think about it.” Concluding her press conference, Hayes was asked why she had recited poetry on this occasion. “I’ll lean on lots of things, not just poetry,” she responded. “I’ve got different mentors. I’ve got different spiritual leaders, I’ve got great family. I’ve got all of those things. Being in my position is not easy. So, I need to keep my sanity. And I’m grateful that things like that help.” GO DEEPER USWNT managed uncertainty to win trophies while waiting for Emma Hayes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,077 Posted April 19, 2024 Share Posted April 19, 2024 Former Chelsea Women first choice keeper Ann-Katrin Berger (33), who recently found herself relegated to third choice, and whose contract was due to expire this summer, has signed for Gotham FC in the NWSL. The NWSL has been flexing it's financial muscle leading into its latest season which started last month. For a long time the US league was regarded as the best in the world and attracted all of the top players. European leagues, most notably the WSL and Ligue 1 in France have gained ground, but the NWSL has decided to reassert itself. It must be said mind you that many of it's captures this year have been in the veteran stage of their careers. These include former Blues superstar So Yun Ji (33) who joined Seattle Reign in January after leaving Cobham in July 2022. Meanwhile Canadian Captain Jessie Fleming (25) also moved Stateside from Chelsea to get more playing time with Portland Thorns. https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/ann-katrin-berger-completes-transfer-to-nj-ny-gotham-fc Thank you AKB.
