talkSPORT pundit says player Chelsea signed has been nothing like they expected
One talkSPORT pundit has this week claimed that one player that Chelsea signed has been nothing like they expected him to be.
The news comes after Chelsea were defeated by Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, losing to a first half headed goal by Mikel Merino.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea in for THIRD Sporting player this summer after two agreements made!
The game was obviously not without its drama and Chelsea fans saw what they expect to see every time Robert Sanchez starts, and that is him making a silly mistake and giving away a goal. This time he got lucky, but Maresca continued to back his goalkeeper at the full time whistle once again.
Meanwhile, Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber was seen mocking Maresca on the side lines in an interaction that has annoyed Blues fans even more.
All in all it wasn’t a good performance from Chelsea and it lacked intensity, desire, energy, and any kind of real belief that they could get something from the game.
We are now into an international break and a chance for Chelsea’s players and Maresca to have a bit of a reset before our next game against Tottenham!
Nkunku slated
Christopher Nkunku has hardly hit the ground running at Chelsea when there was some big expectations when he arrived at the club.
He’s been largely inconsistent and lately, just does not look interested at all.
Troy Deeney thinks that Nkunku has been a let down since he joined from German Bundesliga club RB Leipzig in 2023.
When discussing Nkunku, Deeney told talkSPORT: “I think Nkunku has been a massive disappointment for Chelsea, [given] what they thought they were buying.”
He’s actually not wrong there, but I think Nkunku has had eyes on an exit for some time now.
