During Sunday’s goalless draw against Bournemouth, a keen observer, Glenn Murray, noted a visible display of frustration from Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk. The match ended in a 0-0 stalemate, leaving Chelsea with only five points from their initial five Premier League fixtures.
Mauricio Pochettino’s squad struggled to find the clinical touch in the final third, with players like Nicolas Jackson and Conor Gallagher missing significant opportunities to secure a much-needed win. Looking ahead, Chelsea is set to face Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in their next league fixture.
Mudryk showcased glimpses of attacking prowess during his time on the pitch, displaying good link-up play with Nicolas Jackson. However, his final pass execution and decision-making fell short of the expectations associated with an £89 million player, as noted by BBC pundit Glenn Murray.
In particular, Murray highlighted Mudryk’s frustration after receiving a yellow card for a late challenge on Bournemouth’s full-back Max Aarons, signaling the beginning of a potential battle between the two players.
Despite the promising bursts of play from Mudryk, the pressure surrounding him will only escalate until he manages to find the back of the net. Remarkably, he has gone 21 appearances for Chelsea without scoring, a statistic that adds to the mounting expectations for him to break this goal drought.
