Oliver Glasner speaks out after 'being ignored' by Marc Guehi after Chelsea draw
As the two teams were walking off the pitch following the stalemate at Stamford Bridge, Glasner called out to Guehi as he headed towards the tunnel.
Guehi briefly glanced at Glasner but did not stop and continued to head towards the dressing room, leaving the Palace manager looking confused by the defender's response.
Liverpool have made a move to sign Guehi before the end of the summer transfer window and the 25-year-old's response to Glasner has sparked further speculation over his future.
However, Glasner has moved to play down the exchange and insists Guehi was only upset by Palace's 0-0 draw against Chelsea.
When asked about the incident on Wednesday, Glasner said: 'I've seen so much nonsense written about this.
'Marc was upset that he didn't win the game and I loved this. It's the best sign that he could show of how ambitious we are.' More Trending
Glasner also confirmed that Guehi and Eze will start for Palace's Conference League play-off clash against Fredrikstad on Thursday night.

'The player gives 100 per cent because he is under contract. We don't have to say thank you every day, he is getting a few pounds every week,' Glasner said.
'Many of you were surprised he and Marc started against Chelsea, most of you will be surprised that they will start again tomorrow, but they are committed to the team.
'They will play a crucial part as long as they are here they are committed to the team. If they leave, they want to leave as the guys who gave 100 per cent to Crystal Palace.'

Celtic left with plenty to do after goalless stalemate with Kairat Almaty
In Brendan Rodgers' 800th match as a manager, there was no traditional early onslaught by the Hoops as the accomplished Kazakh side more than matched their hosts. However, with Yang Hyun-jun on for Adam Idah and Daizen Maeda moving to centre forward at the start of the second half, Celtic stepped up the pace and piled on the pressure in the later stages but could not find a way through despite 10 added minutes. All to play for in Kazakhstan.#CelticKairat | #UCL | #CelticFC🍀 — Celtic Football Club (@CelticFC) August 20, 2025 After Saturday's home William Hill Premiership game against Livingston, Celtic will get ready for the return leg in Kazakhstan next Tuesday night which involves a 7,000-mile round trip knowing qualification requires perhaps more work than many anticipated. Much of the build-up to the game was centred on if and when Rodgers would add to his squad for the European campaign. There were no late signings, but Rodgers made six changes to his side, with Kasper Schmeichel, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Liam Scales, Reo Hatate, Benjamin Nygren and Idah returning and Viljami Sinisalo, Dane Murray, Auston Trusty, Arne Engels, Luke McCowan and Johnny Kenny dropping out. Rafael Urazbakhtin stressed his side were playing for the glory of Kazakhstan and the Kairat head coach was pinning a lot of hopes on 17-year-old Chelsea-bound Dastan Satpayev. The visitors settled early and in the 11th minute captain Aleksandr Martynovich had the ball in the Hoops net from close range but was offside. With Satpayev influential, Kairat attacked fluidly and at pace on the counter, dampening the mood of the expectant home support. In the 32nd minute, Celtic defender Alastair Johnston pulled up with what looked like a hamstring injury as he backtracked and was taken from the field on a stretcher, replaced by Anthony Ralston. Moments later, Kairat goalkeeper Alexandr Zarutskiy saved from Maeda when Celtic at last got through, but at the other end Ofri Arad's powerful drive flew just wide of Schmeichel's post. Yang for Idah for the start of the second period and Maeda moving central was no surprise and within a minute Yang set up James Forrest, whose shot was touched onto a post and then gathered by Zarutskiy. In the 58th minute, after some sloppiness by Carter-Vickers in the Hoops defence, Brazilian striker Edmilson tried a speculative shot from 40 yards and it landed on the roof of Schmeichel's goal. Celtic's corner count mounted but to no avail and Hoops fans – perhaps also frustrated by a lack of transfer activity – began singing 'sack the board' as the game moved into the final quarter. In the 75th minute, after sustaining an injury defending a corner, Zarutskiy had to be replaced by understudy Temirlan Anarbekov and he had his head bandaged and covered by a protective cap after taking a knock. The visitors, though, were wasting time at every opportunity and 10 added minutes gave Celtic scope, but Maeda spurned a gift when he ran through alone and could only manage a tame shot which was easily saved by Anarbekov and there were boos at the end from irate supporters.

Bournemouth rekindle interest in Chelsea star as Blues look to contiue offloading players as the transfer window draws to a close
Bournemouth have rekindled interest in another Chelsea star after signing goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic earlier in the window. The Blues are in the midst of a wholesale clear-out as they look to redress the balance in Enzo Maresca 's squad after another summer of spending. Among the arrivals at Stamford Bridge this summer are forwards Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, and Jamie Gittens. Other recruits include Dario Essugo from Sporting Lisbon, and Ajax academy star Jorrel Hato. Maresca also welcomed Estevao Willian after the Palmieras teenager signed for the club last summer, but were unable to work with him due to restrictions over his age. But with the incomings, a number of players have been earmarked for outgoings, including Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell. *18+, excludes NI. Terms and conditions apply And the Cherries could yet take another star off Maresca's hands, with the club reconsidering a move for defender Axel Disasi. Daily Mail Sport first reported the south coast club's interest in the player earlier this month, but a potential move is thought to be in the early stages, with the two teams working on different solutions. Disasi joined the Blues ahead of the 2023-24 season from Monaco, making 31 Premier League appearances during his debut season. But his playing time decreased with the return of Levi Colwill and Reece James to regular competition limited the majority of his appearances for Chelsea last term to run-outs in the UEFA Conference League. The player signed a loan deal to move to Aston Villa for the second-half of the season, where he made a further 10 appearances in the top division. But the star did not fit Unai Emery's requirements enough to make the move permanent at the end of the campaign. As well as Disasi, the Blues will look to shift a further nine stars before the window shuts in September. Moves have already been agreed for players including Joao Felix, Noni Madueke, Armando Broja, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and Kepa Arrizabalaga. Bournemouth are enjoying a strong end to their window after signing Ben Gannon Doak from Liverpool, alongside Petrovic, Bafode Diakite from Lille, and Rennes' Adrien Truffert.

Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City? Hasselbaink names his favourite for Premier League
Chelsea hero Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has picked out Manchester City as his favourites for the Premier League title this season. City's sustained period of dominance came crashing to a halt last term as Liverpool stormed to the top-flight title for an 18th time in Arne Slot's debut year in English football. Having hoisted the trophy aloft in each of the previous four seasons, Pep Guardiola's City eventually had to settle for third place – with 13 points separating them from the eventual champions. But City supporters were able to take some encouragement from their resurgence across a strong end to the campaign, which ensured another year of Champions League football. Etihad bosses have made sure to invest heavily across a free-spending summer transfer window to give Guardiola's men the best possible chance of knocking Liverpool off their perch again this season. The likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker and Jack Grealish have made way in recent months, but Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rayan Cherki and James Trafford have all been recruited – for a combined fee of around £108million – to bolster a new-look City squad. And after a promising pre-season, the eight-time Premier League champions got the new campaign off to a blistering start, putting four goals past Wolves to clinch top spot ahead of their clash with Tottenham. Sky Sports is going full throttle this Premier League season, airing a record-breaking 215 live matches - that's nearly double the usual dose of drama, goals, and post-match meltdowns.

Reijnders, in particular, shone on debut, doubling City's lead before assisting Erling Haaland at Molineux – and Hasselbaink was mightily impressed with what he saw from his fellow Dutchman. 'He's not going to get as many assists as De Bruyne,' Hasselbaink told Sky Sports News of Reijnders' eye-catching start for City. 'He's going to be more available and I think he's going to score more goals than De Bruyne. But assists-wise, I don't think that there are going to be as many. 'But the boy can play and they have found a diamond there.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The former Chelsea and Netherlands striker has seen enough to believe that City are 'the team to beat' again after their disappointing season last term. 'Manchester City is my favourite for the year to win the title,' Hasselbaink added. 'Everyone is talking about Liverpool and I do think it's going to be very close, but Manchester City, for me, is the team to beat.' During an interview with HaytersTV, Hasselbaink's former Chelsea team-mate Joe Cole backed Liverpool to successfully defend their title having won 'at a canter' last season. Cole also revealed his doubts surrounding Arsenal's marquee summer signing Viktor Gyokeres, who he feels is yet to prove himself despite his extraordinary goalscoring exploits at Sporting. 'I make them [Liverpool] favourites [for the title]. They've strengthened and they won it at a canter last season,' Cole told Hayters TV. 'I think this might be [Mikel] Arteta's best chance that he's had. He's got a centre-forward in, but there's still a question mark there. 'It's not like you're bringing in a player like… if Arsenal would've gone and signed Osimhen, who I've seen do it in Italy and in Turkey… 'This kid [Gyokeres], there is still a question mark. I think he's going to be alright, I think he'll score goals, but I just think Liverpool are the best side at the moment. 'The best chance the other teams have is if Liverpool have a slow start because there's a lot of change, but by the end of the season I expect them to be motoring.'
