The most useless player in Chelsea history’: fans slam one player after horrific first-half performance against Brighton
Chelsea embarked on a trip to Brighton for a highly anticipated fourth-round FA Cup match, featuring two Premier League teams vying for victory. The encounter promised intense competition and delivered plenty of drama on the field.
Maresca’s team managed to gain an early advantage when Bart Verbruggen mistakenly deflected the ball into his own net, handing Chelsea a lead. However, Brighton quickly responded, leveling the score just seven minutes later through a well-taken goal by Georginio Rutter.
Despite the early scoring incident, Chelsea’s attacking efforts fell flat for the remainder of the first half, failing to register a single shot on target beyond the own goal. The team’s lackluster performance left their supporters disheartened, with much of their frustration directed at Jadon Sancho. Fans voiced their discontent over his recent poor form, which they described as increasingly disappointing and unproductive.
Here are some of the reactions shared by Chelsea fans on social media platform X:
“Sancho is the most useless player in Chelsea history!”
“Sancho being pocketed by a winger… absolutely embarrassing.”
“Sancho is useless. Get him off my club.”
“What happened to Sancho? He’s been so poor for several games now.”
“We’re practically down a winger with Sancho doing nothing as usual, and Nkunku isn’t a natural striker, so there’s never anyone in the box.”
The criticism highlighted growing concerns among fans about the state of Chelsea’s attack and the mounting pressure on Sancho to turn his form around.
