      Arsenal star Oleksandr Zinchenko ‘received letter from FA warning him for over-celebrating’ when he wasn’t even playing

      by

      FA CHIEFS “warned” Oleksandr Zinchenko for over-celebrating… when the Arsenal hero was out injured!The summer signing leapt from the bench to join team-mates rejoicing Gabriel’s late comeback winner at home to Fulham in August.

      And The Telegraph say the FA sent him a letter telling him he could be considered a “pitch invader” as he was not in the match-day squad.
      The Ukraine left-back has become an instant favourite with fans of the Premier League leaders after moving from champions Manchester City.
      And although he was unfit at the time, he leapt from the sidelines to roar his delight when Gabriel smashed home from a corner to seal a 2-1 victory over the Cottagers.
      Zinchenko ran down the touchline to share celebrations with Arsenal players by the corner flag.

      And he gestured to fans with his hands to urge them to help see the Gunners home in the dying minutes.
      His joy was amplified by sharing Gabriel’s relief – as the Brazilian centre-back had been devastated when he blundered to gift Fulham’s opener to Aleksandar Mitrovic.
      But Martin Odegaard fired a deflected equaliser and Gabriel was mobbed by team-mates after he pounced for the clincher.
      Zinchenko has since put his injury niggles well behind him to emerge as an outstanding success for Mikel Arteta’s exciting side.

      by

      Tough times call for togetherness. We’re as frustrated as all the fans with the way things are going at the moment. We’ll continue to work on ourselves and improve with everyday! COYB 💙 pic.twitter.com/AdYJYAAYEw— Kai Havertz (@kaihavertz29) January 13, 2023

      Havertz played the whole game as Fulham’s 2-1 win on Thursday left Chelsea with just one victory in nine Premier League games.
      Joao Felix ruined his impressive debut with a red card that turned the game against the Blues and earned the loanee a three-game ban.
      And Havertz tried to soothe growing unease from Chelsea followers by going online to ask for unity at a difficult time.
      The Germany star, 23, posted: “Tough times call for togetherness.

      “We’re as frustrated as all the fans with the way things are going at the moment.
      “We’ll continue to work on ourselves and improve with everyday! COYB.”
      But although some supporters responded positively, many replied scathingly, including with strong criticism of Havertz himself.
      One wrote: “You can continue to work on yourself, but not at Chelsea.”

      Another said: “You better step up, my guy. I had so much expectations from you for this season.”
      Far more brutal was this: “You’re a terrible footballer, just leave my club.”
      And just as harsh: “You’re useless. Stop typing messages like this.”
      Perhaps tellingly, this message attracted hundreds of likes: “Same tweet every week, man.”
      A few posts, however, were SLIGHTLY more constructive.
      One read: “Give accurate passes mate it’s getting disgraceful.”
      And even more bluntly: “Go to Bayern, please.”
      One observer urged Havertz: “Please watch the video and raise your game. I think you can do it. ”

      There were, though, supporters who took Havertz’s post in the rallying way he surely intended – as boss Graham Potter battles to save his job.
      This message summed those up: “Please keep fighting!!!! I’m really struggling, like most fans, at the moment!” More

      Dan Cook revealed his identity to fans earlier this weekCredit: TALKSPORT
      He revealed his identity to fans as he opened a YouTube account after 12 years of anonymity.
      TalkSPORT breakfast presenter Woods was moved by his story and shared it on air.
      She said: “[Dan] is a massive Palace and football fanatic. And he’s been doing this social media stuff since about 2011. And he’s always kept his identity completely silent.
      “When he was younger I think he wanted, like most people, to be a footballer. He couldn’t do it because he realised really quickly that his disability wouldn’t allow him to do that.

      “Yesterday he revealed his identity – ‘my name is Dan and I have cerebral palsy.'”
      Woods adds that she had been on his podcast before and was not aware of his condition.
      The host, who also fronts ITV and Amazon football coverage, speaks about Dan’s fears of facing abuse for his disability.
      This took co-host Ally McCoist by surprise.

      Woods said: “Ally, it’s social media. Everything happens on there.
      “Why did I want to share his story? It made me feel a certain way. It made me feel shocked and a bit guilty because I didn’t know.
      “And it also made me feel sad that someone would want to hide a part of themselves away, especially something like a disability.
      “And then I read the comments underneath and I found them so uplifting.”

      Cook was stunned by Woods mentioning his story on air.
      He tweeted: “Honestly, having @laura_woodsy take the time to say this about me on national radio is mind-blowing. Thank you so, so much. You’re a legend.”
      The Palace podcaster is likely enjoying the season so far with the South London side a comfortable mid-table under Patrick Vieira.
