[1.16.4] Send a chat message through player?

[metword]

Hi, I’m very new to modding and I haven’t been able to figure out how to make the player send a chat message through the mod. Basically I’m trying to make a mod that teleports the player when an event runs. For some reason Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.sendChatMessage("/Command here")  Does not work for me. I get an error that says: “Cannot resolve method ‘getMinecraft’ in ‘Minecraft’. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated! 

public static final Minecraft mc = Minecraft.getMinecraft();

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void onChat (ClientChatReceivedEvent event) {
        Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.sendChatMessage("");

        String message = event.getMessage().getUnformattedComponentText();
        if (message.contains("Teleport Me!"))
            Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.sendChatMessage("");
    }

The code you had copied from is old. The name/signature has changed.

Minecraft.getInstance().player;

That explains A LOT. Thank you!
