Blues Get Brutal: Chelsea Ratings vs Noah
Okay, folks, let's talk about that Chelsea performance against Noah. It was brutal, let's just say it. You could practically smell the frustration coming off the pitch.
A Real Stinker
Chelsea were all over the place. The midfield was a mess, the defense looked like it was playing blindfolded, and the attack? Well, it was a ghost town. They were like a bunch of puppies trying to play fetch in a hurricane.
Player Ratings: Who Sank and Who Swam?
Kepa (5/10): He couldn't have done much about the goals, but his distribution was woeful. Maybe he needs to practice throwing a football, too.
James (6/10): He was the only one who looked like he had any energy, constantly trying to bomb down the right flank. But his crosses were pretty bad.
Fofana (4/10): A real nightmare. He was all over the place, giving the ball away and getting caught out of position. He needs to find his feet, ASAP.
Silva (4/10): His experience wasn't enough to rescue this sinking ship. He got caught out a few times and was just plain unlucky.
Koulibaly (3/10): Yikes! He made some really bad decisions and looked like he was playing in quicksand.
Fernandes (4/10): He was a ghost, hardly making any impact. You could tell he was struggling with the pace of the game.
Gallagher (5/10): He put in a decent shift in midfield, trying to win the ball back and move it quickly. But he was just a lone wolf out there.
Mount (4/10): It was a rough day at the office for Mount. He couldn't find his feet, and his passes were off-target. It was like he forgot how to play football.
Havertz (3/10): He was anonymous. He just disappeared for most of the game. I'm not even sure if he was on the pitch.
Sterling (4/10): He tried hard, but it wasn't his night. He had a couple of decent runs, but he couldn't finish.
Mudryk (5/10): He looked a bit lost at times, but showed some glimpses of pace and dribbling skill. Maybe he just needs more time.
What Now?
The team need to get their heads down and figure out how to turn things around. They need to get back to basics and start playing as a team. The fans are getting frustrated, so they better start playing like they actually care.
This was a brutal, ugly performance that everyone would like to forget. But forget it, they can't. They need to learn from it and come back stronger.
Let's hope the next game is a little bit more entertaining, for everyone's sake.
