On Wednesday, Liverpool convincingly outplayed Chelsea at Anfield, capitalizing on the visitors’ weak defensive showing. Axel Disasi, Thiago Silva, Benoit Badiashile, and Ben Chilwell all contributed to Chelsea’s downfall as Liverpool emerged victorious against Mauricio Pochettino’s side. Gabriel Agbonlahor heavily criticized the entire Chelsea team, particularly singling out Badiashile for his defensive errors.
During The Sports Breakfast, Agbonlahor remarked, “Chelsea look like they don’t care if they lose. That’s what I got from last night, they were that bad. They didn’t look like they cared about losing. Darwin Nunez hit the bar, the post, the woodwork five times – it could have been like 8-1 or 8-2.”
“Badiashile, the centre half, he gave probably the worst centre-half performance I’ve seen in the Premier League in the last two seasons. He was dreadful, Chilwell wasn’t great and then you’ve got Mudryk coming on – he hasn’t learned anything. He’s running into people, kicking it out of play and doesn’t look like he’s got any football intelligence. Thiago Silva was poor. You spend a billion pounds on players and you’ve got a 39-year-old – nearly 40-year-old – playing centre-back.”
Chelsea frequently conceded possession in critical areas, with Badiashile particularly vulnerable as Diogo Jota surged through to score Liverpool’s opening goal. Badiashile further compounded his errors by conceding a penalty, though he was fortunate to see Darwin Nunez strike the post from the spot. However, his defensive lapses persisted, as he lost sight of Luis Diaz, allowing the Colombian to score Liverpool’s fourth goal of the evening.
Badiashile will be eager for another chance to silence his critics when Chelsea welcomes Wolves to Stamford Bridge on Sunday under Pochettino’s management.
