Merson: Chelsea are playing very poorly and need experienced players to come in

Hupu News on October 26: In a previous Premier League match, Chelsea lost 1-2 to Sunderland. After the game, Paul Merson criticized the Blues' performance in an interview with Sky Sports.

Paul Merson said: "I was deeply impressed by Sunderland's performance, while Chelsea was the complete opposite. I had long thought that the Blues would have a hard time. Chelsea needed Delap back so much, and they had to have an offensive core. Gio played as a forward, and I saw him only touch the ball nine or ten times throughout the game. For a team that should be in control of the ball, this kind of performance is simply not possible. "

"Chelsea completely lost their thinking in the end. They sent one winger after another, but half of them couldn't even get past the defensive players. The Blues players struggled to find their way throughout the game. "

"This Chelsea team is too young, and the oldest player on the team is only 23. , 24 years old, right? Such is the case with young teams, their form is ups and downs, and the performance of the wingers is also extremely inconsistent. For example, Pedro Neto, when he is in good condition, he can play very well, but in the next game he may be a completely different player. "

"There are no players in Chelsea who can perform stably - everyone either scores a high performance of 8 or 9 points, or a sluggish performance of only 5 points. They can't win the Premier League championship at all in this state, and they need some experienced players to come to the game. No one can replace Thiago Silva's experience, and this is the problem they face now. "

"There is a high probability that the Blues will continue to advance amid ups and downs in performance. Hopefully they can break into the top four, but judging from their current performance, they have to do better. "
