Chelsea 2-1 Leicester City: Player ratings in horrible performance
By James Bishop
Luke Thomas- 4
Really bad, lost his footing a lot through no fault of his own, but he was always caught out of position and when he received the ball, he -like everyone else- lost it before he blinked an eye.
Ayoze Perez- 4
Did nothing all game and fluffed his lines when called upon. His performance was identical to Maddison, so I don’t know why he lasted till the end. But he has to score that chance at the end, it looked too easy.
James Maddison- 3
He’s really been a mystery these past couple of weeks. Dropped at West Ham, teared it up against West Brom, and has either been benched or substituted for being bad or not match fit due to his injury. Obviously, his injury hasn’t helped his form because he is being monitored closely, but my god he was anonymous today. Yes, he had to track back a lot but he’s got to do more when he does get on the ball rather than lose it immediately
Jamie Vardy- 3
Obviously, everyone loves him, but when is he going to get dropped? It’s like playing with ten men. His run of form is almost embarrassing. If you are going to play with one striker, it shouldn’t be him.
Substitutes:
Kelechi Iheanacho- 7
I’m still trying to work out why he wasn’t starting?! In form, full of confidence, important match and he’s benched. He showed his manager why he made a mistake by giving his side a chance with a well taken goal. He just looks so much more alive than Vardy.
Ricardo- 5
Didn’t do a lot, but then came alive in the last five minutes with a good cross for Perez and then started a mass brawl.
