Gary Neville was shocked by what he saw chelsea He called Kevin “De Bruyne-esque” on Sky Sports commentary.
Chelsea’s dramatic win over West Ham United
Liam Rosenior came off the bench to save the day as Chelsea earned a brilliant 3-2 win over West Ham United at Stamford Bridge.
That counterattack could work wonders as the Blues boss looks to build confidence in his young squad and build unity with supporters, but things looked bleak at half-time after his decision to replace seven players backfired.
The home side were a mess, trailing behind goals from Jarrod Bowen and Crissencio Somerville, and their rotation after Napoli’s win left them disjointed and lacking cohesion.
Three half-time changes came to Chelsea’s rescue, with Wesley Fofana crossing for Joao Pedro and Marc Cucurella’s header equalizing the score.
Arguably Chelsea’s best player of the season, Enzo Fernandez, won the game, with Pedro Neto once again involved in the assist, but people will still question the rotation and ability of Roniol’s second team.
Jean-Claire Todibo was sent off for a temper tantrum in stoppage time, creating a frantic end to an exciting game.
Cucurella gives his thoughts on comeback win tell reporters: “We’ll talk at half-time and at the end of the day it’s about the mentality and desire we showed in the second half and we’re really happy with it.
“(Liam Ronniol) said it’s about us, if we press, want the ball, play with confidence we’ll have a chance to win. We’ve got really good players, a really good team and we’ve shown a lot of energy and desire since the start of the second half. If we play with that energy we can win a lot of games.”
Gary Neville stunned by Fofana
Neville made no secret of his praise when he saw the first of Chelsea’s three goals, with Fofana managing to provide him with the assist. A Sky Sports commentator even described Fofana as “like De Bruyne” for his pinpoint cross to Pedro’s head.
he Said in the comments: “Fofana’s cross, like De Bruyne did… Joao Pedro was brilliant when he was behind. Suddenly they are back in the game and we have a real game now and a really good half hour to look forward to now.”
Another impressive moment RoseChelsea’s dominance. The new manager and the Blues are off to a great start; a comeback win certainly won’t hurt.
