Chelsea suffered an embarrassing 4-1 defeat to Celtic in their pre-season friendly, leaving much to be desired from Enzo Maresca's team. Here are the player ratings from the dismal performance, according to Football London:
Robert Sanchez - 4/10
Sanchez had a mixed game, making some smart stops but also showing poor distribution, which contributed to Celtic's third goal.
Reece James - 5/10
James struggled in his new inverted role, looking uncomfortable and failing to make an impact.
Wesley Fofana - 3/10
Fofana had a difficult game, showing silky feet in possession but struggling defensively, particularly for Celtic's opener.
Benoit Badiashile - 3/10
Badiashile was exposed early on and continued to struggle, looking the most expendable of the back three.
Levi Colwill - 3/10
Colwill formed a back three in possession but was not alert for the Celtic opener and struggled throughout.
Romeo Lavia - 5/10
Lavia showed glimpses of his quality but shirked his defensive duties, leaving the backline exposed.
Carney Chukwuemeka - 5/10
Chukwuemeka started brightly but faded, missing a golden chance to put Chelsea ahead.
Noni Madueke - 5/10
Madueke looked quick but was frustrated by his teammates' failure to find him free on the right flank.
Christopher Nkunku - 5/10
Nkunku missed several opportunities, including a powerful header and a close-range effort.
Mykhaylo Mudryk - 4/10
Mudryk faded badly, failing to help Colwill defensively and being hooked at half-time.
Marc Guiu - 6/10
Guiu showed some nice touches and didn't look daunted by the occasion, but was unlucky not to win a penalty.
Substitutes:
Raheem Sterling - 7/10
Sterling nearly made an immediate impact, striking the woodwork and terrorizing Anthony Ralston down the left.
Lesley Ugochukwu - 5/10
Ugochukwu struggled to impose himself on the game.
Malo Gusto - 5/10
Gusto had a poor cameo, with both goals coming from his side.
Andrey Santos - 5/10
Santos was not involved enough in the centre of midfield.
Tosin Adarabioyo - 4/10
Adarabioyo was left wanting as Johnston raced through to make it 4-0.
Lucas Bergstrom - N/A
Bergstrom replaced Sanchez but had little to do.
Angelo - N/A
Angelo was not involved enough to warrant a rating.
Renato Veiga - N/A
Veiga was not involved enough to warrant a rating.
Chelsea's performance was a worrying sign for Enzo Maresca's team, with much work to be done in pre-season.
