Chelsea vs Wolves player ratings

1. Chelsea (3-4-2-1)

GK: Kepa Arrizabalaga – 7/10 – Kepa did well to make some remarkable saves during the game and above all he had a clean sheet again to his credit. Though he must not forget to give credit to the shining sun in the stadium too.

CB: Trevoh Chalobah – 7/10 – He was superb during the game as defended well and also provided good attacking returns for the blues. also maintained a clean sheet at the end of 90 minutes.

CB: Kalidou Koulibaly – 7/10 – Impressive at the defense as he made some blocks against the wolves attack and also maintained a clean sheet.

CB: Marc Cucurella – 6/10 – Struggled to contain ever-penetrating Adama Traore but did well not to concede.

RM: Cesar Azpilicueta – 8/10 – He was absolutely superb in the game being everywhere all through the game. Did amazingly defensively and also made couple of nice crosses. It was quite unfortunate that the skipper was unable to have a goal or at least an assist in the game.

CM: Jorginho – 7/10 – He did well by retaining possession and also blended well in the midfield. His performance was commendable too.

CM: Ruben Loftus-Cheek – 6/10 – Got several chances of going forward but often times losses the ball to the opponent. He needs to step up his game in the midfield.

LM: Christian Pulisic – 8/10 – If only luck was on his side, he would have netted a brace or an hat-trick in the game but at least when chance presented itself, he netted a classic goal past Jose Sa.

AM: Conor Gallagher – 8/10 – He is yet another player who was everywhere on the pitch. Linked up perfectly with Kai Harvertz, Pulisic and Azplicueta.

AM: Mason Mount – 8/10 – Was excellent all through the game as he was involved in two goal and could have recorded his name on the scoresheet but luck wasn’t on his side.

ST: Kai Havertz – 6/10 – Not his best performance but he took the chance when the opportunity presented itself. He was at his best during the game.

SUB: Mateo Kovacic (66′ for Loftus-Cheek) – 7/10 – Coming in from the bench, he did well to have possession during some moments in the game.

SUB: Reece James (72′ for Pulisic) – 7/10 – He was a terror to the Wolves team. His introduction into the game caused a great shock to the opponent and he did made a good threat in the opponent’s camp.

SUB: Armando Broja (72′ for Mount) – 7/10 – The forward was introduced in the 72nd minute, made some good runs and later crowned his effort with a goal.

SUB: Carney Chukwuemeka (86′ for Gallagher) – N/A

SUB: Hakim Ziyech (86′ for Havertz) – N/A

Manager: Graham Potter – 8/10 – He was clinical in his formation and team selection that yielded the desired victory at Stamford Bridge. Even without some of his key players he was able to pick all three points. He made the right substitutions just when it was necessary. Great game for Graham Potter.

2. Wolves (4-2-3-1)

GK: Jose Sa – 5/10 – Made a couple of nice saves in both halves of the game but his effort was not enough to deprive the host from scoring.

RB: Nelson Semedo – 4/10 – It was a bad day for Semedo who was nowhere to be found in the defense and was not also supportive upfront. A total blackout for the defender.

CB: Toti Gomes – 4/10 – He was superb in the defense but couldn’t hold unto possession.

CB: Max Kilman – 4/10 – He was the only defender looking all tensed and under pressure. Didn’t perform as he use to, quite a bad day for the defender.

LB: Jonny – 3/10 – He was saddled with the task of containing Aziplicueta and Gallaher which is quite impossible for the defender and he couldn’t get the desired help from his teammate.

DM: Matheus Nunes – 7/10 – His pace and dribbling skills were exquisite. He could have gotten a goal or an assist.

DM: Joao Moutinho – 5/10 – He did well defensively but has a limited mobility upfront leaving Matheus with lot of work to do in the midfield.

RM: Adama Traore – 5/10 – Though he find his way past Cucurella on several occasions, his finishing touhes didn’t yield the desired result.

AM: Daniel Podence – 3/10 – Perhaps he didn’t get the desired support from his teammates upfront to finish the ball as expected. Wasted quite a number of chances.

LM: Goncalo Guedes – 2/10 – It was a poor outing for the winger as he was no where to be found in terms of possession and contribution to the attacking line.

ST: Diego Costa – 3/10 – He tried to get involved in the first half without much impact. He was substituted in the second half and got an outstanding reception and ovation from the Chelsea supporters.

SUB: Joe Hodge (46′ for Guedes) – 6/10 – Hodge’s was brought in immediately after the halftime break and the young lad actually played better. It was indeed a splendid senior league outing for Hodge.

SUB: Hwang Hee-chan (56′ for Costa) – 3/10 – Didn’t do much. Just a single wasted chance.

SUB: Chem Campbell (72′ for Traore) – 5/10 – Campbell weakened Traore’s wing, as he did nothing much to cause havoc to the home team.

SUB: Rayan Ait-Nouri (72′ for Jonny) – 6/10 – Did well in the defense, one could wish he was introduced earlier.

Manager: Steve Davis – 4/10 – Did well to have done the substitution as at when needed. It was a tough game for the team and Steve Davis will be happy his boys did well but couldn’t a point at Stamford Bridge.

Player of the Match – Conor Gallagher
