Chelsea make it 16 goals in just three Europa Conference League games with an 8-0 win against Armenian opponents, Noah.
A brace each for Felix & Nkunku, with goals from set pieces, and a stunner from Mudryk partnered a much needed clean sheet, for a perfect Thursday night.
Filip Jorgensen – 8
I didn’t anticipate he’d be needed tonight but my word he was tested throughout with it being a quite open game. Made some good saves, dealt well with what came at him and was really good on the ball.
Axel Disasi – 7
Scored a goal and had an okay overall performance. Feels hard to really judge defenders on a night where it was all about the goals we scored.
Tosin Adarabioyo – 7
Much the same as Disasi, with his first Chelsea goal tonight too, a great moment. Misplaced only one pass too, a solid night.
Benoit Badiashile – 7
Quietly went about his business tonight, didn’t make any noticeable errors, and he’ll be pleased with a solid performance.
Renato Veiga – 6
Was a little disappointed tonight, a few more uncharacteristically wayward passes at points in the game, though was unlucky not to have an assist for Nkunku in the second half.
Enzo Fernandez – 7
Three first half assists will do him nicely, and taken off to rest after that 45. Not a great deal else to add.
Tyrique George – 6
An okay 65 or so minutes. Looked quite direct on the right side, showed some really good intent, just a shame he couldn’t get himself on the scoresheet.
Christopher Nkunku – 7
Two second half goals to make it 10 in all competitions this season. Wasn’t overly in the game at points but the goals matter most for him I’d say. Could really have had more.
Joao Felix – 8
A positive night tonight with two first half goals and just a nice performance bar a couple of slightly more selfish moments. He’s done well in this competition as you’d expect.
Mykhailo Mudryk – 7
A good shift and my word what a goal as well. Another player who is definitely benefitting from playing in this competition.
Marc Guiu – 6
Finally his first Chelsea goal tonight and a well taken one at that. Was a shame he only made 45 minutes though, not sure if an injury or just part of the plan.
Substitutes:
Cesare Casadei – 5
Not much to report but ticked things over.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall – 5
Same as Casadei really, not a great deal to report, though won a contentious penalty for our eighth.
Carney Chukwuemeka – 5
Should’ve had a goal of his own tonight, an okay cameo but want to see more of him.
Sam Rak-Sakyi – N/A
Enzo Maresca – 8
Job done as expected, no injuries and managed minutes also as expected. No issues for me tonight!
