Chelsea soon ran out of patience with Frank Lampard after a major investment in their first team during the tight season.
Chelsea have spent more than two hundred million pounds on reinforcements for the 2020-2021 campaign, however, with the ninth club in the Premier League and 11 numbers halfway through, they ceded their head coach’s facilities on Monday.
Lampard arrived at the club just 18 months ago under a play embargo and praised his confidence in the youth in a first crusade that allowed him to finish in the 4 most sensible and one last fa Cup appearance.
However, Chelsea have not achieved an upward trajectory this season and after a two-match streak in eight Premier League games, the resolve has been made to cut ties with the club legend.
It’s fair to say that some of Chelsea’s newcomers didn’t meet expectations this quarter and we took a look at the numbers in their performances.
Timo Werner – forty-five million pounds from RB Leipzig
Werner arrived from Leipzig with the highest expectation after being concerned about 36 league goals (26 goals, 8 assists) in 2019-20, an advance recount through Robert Lewandowski (38), Ciro Immobile (45) and Lionel Messi (46).
He soon tracked down his pace, scoring 11 goals (eight goals scored, 3 assists) in 10 games in all competitions between September and November.
However, the purpose he has set in 15 appearances since the end of that series came here against Morecambe in the third circular of the FA Cup – ended an 827-minute drought in all competitions.
He has not scored in 11 Premier League games and his problems were compounded by his failed to convert from the penalty spot against Luton Town on Sunday.
Kai Havertz – millions of pounds from Bayer Leverkusen
Along with Werner (14) and Tammy Abraham (15), Havertz (10) is one of Chelsea’s three players who have cared in at least 10 goals in all of this season’s competitions.
However, some of those who came here opposed the warplanes of the lower league: he scored the first hat-trick of his senior career opposed to Barnsley in the EFL Cup in September, and opposed Morecambe in the FA Cup this month had a purpose. and a help.
As for their Premier League numbers, it has only one purpose and one lends one hand in 16 appearances, 11 of them from the beginning.
Lampard will be suffering to figure out how to get the most out of the flexible Front Havertz and, given his worth, will be at full time for replacement.
Ben Chilwell – forty-five million pounds from Leicester City
An injury to Chilwell’s Chelsea plantar deyet fascia soon had an impact, only the third Blues player to score and watch his Premier League deyet, joining Deco and Alvaro Morata.
By thirteen games he had already matched the most productive of his career with four Premier League assists in a single season, while his six goals at the time were the same as he had controlled in 2019-20 for Leicester.
The power plants were a key component of Lampard’s technique and Chilwell’s open game 82 after 97 Reece James.
But while 24. 7% of James’ installments were accurate, Chilwell’s 13. 4 was the third worst rate of any Blues player to locate a teammate with at least one open play center.
Hakim Ziyech – 33. 3 million euros from Ajax
A hand for Werner in a pre-season friendly against Brighton provided promising signs, but a knee injury meant his competitive deyet did not arrive until October.
He has two goals and 4 assists in 17 appearances in all competitions, but Mason Mount (2. 5) has created more opportunities consistent with 90 minutes than Ziyech (2. 4) this season (all competitions).
In addition, it creates 0. 8 ‘big odds’ explained through Opta every 90 minutes, which is the largest number of Chelsea players who have participated in more than two matches.
His assists were expected in the open game over 90 minutes of 0. 21 in seventh place alongside Kevin De Bruyne (among the players who played at least 450 minutes), so with a better ending, its effect might seem more impressive on paper.
Edouard Mendy – 22 million euros from Rennes
After Kepa Arrizabalaga made three mistakes that led to goals in so many other Premier League games to start the season, bringing Mendy from Rennes came up with a smart decision.
He has kept nine leaves blank in his first 12 appearances in all competitions, but in his next nine outings he has blocked the opposition twice and conceded thirteen goals.
In the Premier League, Mendy scored 12 goals with an expected purpose (xGOT) of 10. 8, leaving one more purpose than expected based on the opportunities he faced.
It is the eighth worst in the league among goalkeepers who have played more than 900 minutes.
Thiago Silva – loose transfer
Although he has become the first outfielder to make a one-goal mistake in his Premier League debut in two years when his cowardly control was taken through Callum Robinson in a 3–3 draw with West Brom in September, Silva’s delight seemed to be particularly Chelsea’s. Defense.
Kurt Zouma only (64. 6%) he has a good fortune rate in duels greater than Silva’s 63. 5 among players who have played at least 10 matches in all competitions, and has helped them harden in defending stopped shots.
Excluding goals scored directly on loose shots, Chelsea conceded thirteen times in shots stopped in the Premier League in 2019-20, while this fourth sent only five dead balls and one of them happened when Silva was not in camp.
The Brazilian also made them more threatening through the games stopped, offering two of the goals scored through Chelsea in such situations.
