KSI slammed the “awful and boring” Soccer Aid and called for a drastic format change.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer watched as familiar faces played in this year’s game including friend Simon “Miniminter” Minter.
Former boxing opponent Tommy Fury, 25, also played as was mocked for his underarm throw in during the match.
The likes of Eden Hazard, Patrice Evra, Michael Essien and Roberto Carlos featured at Stamford Bridge.
But despite raising a sensational £15million for Unicef, KSI believes improvements can be made in the match.
He posted on X: “I’m very glad Soccer Aid raised a lot of money today. Always brings a smile to my face every year.

“However as football match, that was an awful and boring watch.
“It was literally ex pros just passing amongst themselves, dribbling past people and shooting from anywhere constantly lol.
“Would much rather it just be influencers and entertainers play.

“Just feel like you should give more game time to people who don’t normally get to play in front of these crowds, as a opposed to giving pros most of the minutes.”
KSI has helped mastermind the yearly celebrity match between his content group The Sidemen against YouTube Allstars.
Last year, it raised £2.4m and was played at a sellout 62,000 at West Ham’s London Stadium.
Soccer Aid 2024 ended in a 6-3 win for England against World XI to end their five-year losing streak.
