SHOCKING NEWS: coming Live from Stamford bridge, Chelsea manager displeased with the performance of star player yesterday. He Said, “He might actually be the worst ever player i’ve seen play this sport. I have lost patience with him and his attitude on the pitch, That guys is gone for good, I need to offload him asap,” “There is no hope for him”, “Uncoachable” – Chelsea manager slam star’s performance despite 2-0 win over Servette.
Chelsea secured their first win under manager Enzo Maresca with a 2-0 victory over Servette in the first leg of the Conference League qualification round on August 22. Despite the result, the performance left much to be desired, with the team struggling to create significant chances, leading to jeers from supporters at halftime. A penalty from Christopher Nkunku in the 50th minute and a late goal by substitute Noni Madueke in the 76th minute salvaged the match for the Blues.
One player who faced heavy criticism was Mykhailo Mudryk. The Ukrainian winger, who has struggled to justify his £88.5 million transfer fee, delivered another underwhelming performance, prompting frustration from both fans and his manager. Some fans took to social media platform X to express their disappointment, with comments like “There is no hope for him” and “Mudryk might actually be the worst ever player I’ve seen play this sport” reflecting the growing discontent.
Mudryk, who joined Chelsea with high expectations, has managed just seven goals and four assists in 59 appearances across all competitions. He currently finds himself behind the likes of Pedro Neto and Nkunku in Maresca’s lineup.
Despite Mudryk’s struggles, Maresca opted to keep him on the field for the entire match against Servette. After a lackluster first half, Mudryk showed some improvement in the second half, though it wasn’t enough to fully redeem his performance. Maresca acknowledged the winger’s inconsistency, noting that while Mudryk has had good moments, he needs to become more reliable and make better decisions in the final third.
Maresca stated, “I think this is Mudryk, in terms of not only tonight, but in terms of since he joined the club. I think he had some good moments and then some moments like flipping a coin. You don’t know if it’s one thing or the other thing. If he can become more consistent, he can take one step forward.”
Chelsea will be looking to build on this victory when they face Wolves in the Premier League on August 25, before heading to Switzerland for the second leg against Servette on August 29. Fans and the club alike will be hoping for a more convincing performance as the season progresses.
