“Isn’t a footballer”, “Should never step into the pitch again till season ends” plays like a 2nd Division player-Todd Boehly has instructed Pochettino never to Start Chelsea FLOP again
In Chelsea’s recent 2-2 draw against Aston Villa, striker Mykhailo Mudryk faced harsh criticism from fans following lackluster performances. Despite initial struggles, Chelsea showcased remarkable resilience, rallying from a two-goal deficit to salvage a point.
Following a demoralizing 5-0 defeat to Arsenal, Mauricio Pochettino’s youthful Chelsea side faced another formidable opponent in Aston Villa, exacerbated by key player absences, a recurring issue throughout the season. Despite Mudryk’s underwhelming display against Arsenal, Pochettino opted to field him again, albeit with minimal impact on the game’s outcome.
Mudryk’s extended playing time, spanning 89 minutes, stemmed from Chelsea’s limited offensive options on the bench, with academy talent Tyrique George as the only comparable alternative. However, Mudryk’s performance fell short of expectations, leading to his substitution by midfielder Cesare Casadei as Pochettino sought a late breakthrough.
Chelsea supporters voiced their disappointment with Mudryk’s performance on social media platforms, highlighting his perceived shortcomings and questioning his suitability for professional football. Nevertheless, Chelsea managed to secure a draw against Aston Villa, thwarting their opponents’ ambitions of a top-four finish and maintaining their position in the Premier League standings, albeit trailing Manchester United by seven points.
