Jamie Carragher reacts to Joao Felix’s red card in Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat against Fulham
Jamie Carragher responded to Joao Felix’s dramatic Chelsea debut in the 2-1 loss to Fulham on Twitter tonight.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Felix, who just transferred from Atletico Madrid to Chelsea on a temporary loan, was thrust into the middle of the action at Craven Cottage.
During the first half, the 23-year-old attacker appeared to be the Blues’ greatest goal threat and forced the opposition goalie to make a few saves.
But the wrong things will ultimately be remembered about his English football debut.
Just past the hour mark, Felix was shown a straight red card for lunging at Kenny Tete of Fulham.

Carragher sent a statement on Felix’s first appearance in Chelsea garb on social media.
He claimed that up until his early departure, which will cause him to miss the next three games, the Portuguese superstar was the best player on the field.
Felix and Chelsea cannot be upset about the red card, but before to that, he was the greatest player on the field. Carragher tweeted something.
It is devastating news that Felix will miss the upcoming games, especially because he was having such a promising season.
The squad will have to function without the loaned star in the upcoming games even though it appears that he can help with their problem with creativity in the last third of the field.
The nightmare keeps going.
Chelsea suffered again another league defeat, this time falling to Fulham for the first time since 2006.
With his deflected shot in the first half, Willian, who didn’t really celebrate against his former team, gave the hosts the lead.
At the start of the second period, Kalidou Koulibaly’s goal tied the score, but Felix’s dismissal caused the situation to change once more.
In place of Aleksandar Mitrovic, who was out due to suspension, Carlos Vinicius scored the game-winning goal with a header in the 73rd minute.
Then, this Sunday in league play, Chelsea will host Crystal Palace.
