On the field, this week has been one to forget. Defeat away to Liverpool in the Champions League was followed by losing from a winning position at home to United. It could dampen what has been a very good season for the Blues, but we should not forget the season as a whole.
Off the field partnerships are developing and business partners brought on board. The latest company to come on board is the social media app, Tinder. Being announced last week the deal is reportedly in the millions of pounds mark, and encompasses the Mens side, the women’s side along with New York City FC plying their trade in the MLS.
