Chelsea victory eases pressure on manager Graham Potter


  • English
  • Arabic

Chelsea's revival under Graham Potter continued at Leicester with a 3-1 win in the Premier League on Saturday, making it three straight wins in all competitions for the London club.

Kai Havertz’s fine finish restored the visitors’ lead just before halftime after Patson Daka equalised, and Mateo Kovacic’s volley added the third for the Blues in the second half.

Chelsea forward Joao Felix hit the post and had a goal ruled out by VAR while Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall missed a sitter for the hosts before Leicester's Wout Faes was sent off late on.

After reaching the Champions League quarterfinals by knocking out Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, Chelsea's latest win eases the pressure even further on Potter.

It was just the second time Chelsea scored three times in a league game, and there was a fluidity and clinical edge which has been lacking this season.

For Leicester, the loss edged Brendan Rodgers' team closer to the relegation zone after wins for Bournemouth and Everton left the Foxes just a point above the drop zone.

Gary Lineker watched the game in the stands after the TV presenter was taken off the air by the BBC for comments criticising the government's new asylum policy.

Farage on Muslim Brotherhood

Nigel Farage told Reform's annual conference that the party will proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood if he becomes Prime Minister.
"We will stop dangerous organisations with links to terrorism operating in our country," he said. "Quite why we've been so gutless about this – both Labour and Conservative – I don't know.
“All across the Middle East, countries have banned and proscribed the Muslim Brotherhood as a dangerous organisation. We will do the very same.”
It is 10 years since a ground-breaking report into the Muslim Brotherhood by Sir John Jenkins.
Among the former diplomat's findings was an assessment that “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” has “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
The prime minister at the time, David Cameron, who commissioned the report, said membership or association with the Muslim Brotherhood was a "possible indicator of extremism" but it would not be banned.

Dubai works towards better air quality by 2021

Dubai is on a mission to record good air quality for 90 per cent of the year – up from 86 per cent annually today – by 2021.

The municipality plans to have seven mobile air-monitoring stations by 2020 to capture more accurate data in hourly and daily trends of pollution.

These will be on the Palm Jumeirah, Al Qusais, Muhaisnah, Rashidiyah, Al Wasl, Al Quoz and Dubai Investment Park.

“It will allow real-time responding for emergency cases,” said Khaldoon Al Daraji, first environment safety officer at the municipality.

“We’re in a good position except for the cases that are out of our hands, such as sandstorms.

“Sandstorms are our main concern because the UAE is just a receiver.

“The hotspots are Iran, Saudi Arabia and southern Iraq, but we’re working hard with the region to reduce the cycle of sandstorm generation.”

Mr Al Daraji said monitoring as it stood covered 47 per cent of Dubai.

There are 12 fixed stations in the emirate, but Dubai also receives information from monitors belonging to other entities.

“There are 25 stations in total,” Mr Al Daraji said.

“We added new technology and equipment used for the first time for the detection of heavy metals.

“A hundred parameters can be detected but we want to expand it to make sure that the data captured can allow a baseline study in some areas to ensure they are well positioned.”
