Dominic Cummings 'has years of unpaid council tax bill on two homes written off'

Romelu Lukaku should be “going nuts” at his Chelsea teammates over a lack of service.The Belgian has struggled massively this season for the Blues and only managed seven touches of the ball in their Premier League clash with Crystal Palace on Saturday.Lukaku’s non-existent performance prompted former England strikers Lineker and Shearer to come to his defence on Match of the Day by arguing that Thomas Tuchel’s side were not creating enough opportunities for him.And Ferdinand has now also taken to his Vibe with Five podcast to slam Lukaku’s team-mates for his lack of service and goals.Ferdinand said: “I agree with Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer by the way, if anyone saw their comments. If I’m Lukaku I’m going nuts."[I would be saying] get me that ball, get wide and cross me the ball, play the ball in behind when you get the opportunity, play to my strengths."I think that’s probably the biggest issue you’ve got with Chelsea at the moment - what’s their best team? I don’t think Tuchel knows his best team at the moment."He wants to get a £100million player in - which is understandable - in Lukaku and he’s hit a bit of a bad run in terms of goals.”Do you think Romelu Lukaku was the wrong signing for Chelsea?

Chelsea have taken a big step towards the next round of the Champions League after they beat Lille 2-0 in the first leg of their knockout tie.It took Kai Havertz just eight minutes to open the scoring after he headed home from Hakim Ziyech's corner to put Chelsea ahead, and Lille were fortunate to go into the break just a goal down.Injuries dominated the early stages of the second half as Mateo Kovacic and Ziyech limped off down the tunnel, but Christian Pulisic alleviated the pressure by adding a second after 63 minutes to give the home side some breathing space.It was a comfortable night for Chelsea, and it could have been a more convincing win if their flow wasn't disrupted early in the second half, but Thomas Tuchel will feel confident heading to Lille with a two-goal advantage against the French Champions.As Chelsea take control of their Champions League knockout tie, here Daily Star Sport takes a look at what Tuchel got right at Stamford Bridge...It was a huge decision by Thomas Tuchel to leave Romelu Lukaku out of the starting line-up against Lille, but it paid off as Chelsea looked fluid in attack in the absence of their summer signing.It was a game to forget on Saturday for Lukaku, who touched the ball just seven times against Crystal Palace, and Tuchel pulled him out of the line-up after vowing to 'protect him' following the backlash from the fans.Although on his day he is their best centre-forward, it provided a lift for the whole team, who seemed to play with more freedom.It appeared to catch Lille off guard too, as centre-back pairing Jose Fonte and Sven Botman were likely preparing to face Lukaku all week, but took time to adjust to the agility of Chelsea's font-three.In the absence of Lukaku from the

Forbes.“If you don’t, he’ll take 100% of your wealth and throw you in jail.”Mr Browder described Putin to the US Senate Judiciary Committee in 2017 as “one of the richest men in the world”.“I estimate that he has accumulated $200 billion of ill-gotten gains from these types of operations over his 17 years in power,” Mr Browder said.Another theory is that the Russian leader used nepotism to hand favours to his close circle, then gleaning money from ventures he helped create for them. Kirill Shamalov, who was married to Putin's daughter Katerina Tikhonova, became a billionaire at 34-years-old after being allowed to borrow money from private banking company Gazprombank so he could buy a 17 per cent stake in the company Sibur from one of Mr Putin’s friends, Gennady Timchenko.Bloomberg columnist Leonid Bershidsky suggested Putin actually doesn't have much personal wealth, because he hasn't much need for it.“He has the whole country at his beck and call,” Bershidsky wrote in 2013.“It is enough for Putin to snap his fingers, and state-owned companies will cede assets to his friends at bargain-basement prices.
