‘Why?’: Chelsea legend John Terry left stunned at what he saw in the Premier League last night
Chelsea legend John Terry has been left stunned after what he saw happen in the Premier League last night.
He took to Twitter to share his bewilderment after seeing West Ham score from a corner against Arsenal last night.
The Gunners threw away a chance to return to the top of the Premier League table last night when they were beaten 2-0 at the Emirates.
The result could well have been even worse, when summer transfer target Declan Rice gave away a penalty in the final moments.
He was bailed out by fellow reported former Chelsea target David Raya, however this could not stop them picking up a damning defeat.
The second goal saw former Gunner Konstantinos Mavropanos head home brilliantly, after it looked as if he was hardly being marked at all.
Terry shocked at Arsenal defending
Terry quickly took to Twitter to share that he was really confused at the method the Gunners took to marking in the area.
He said: “Why do so many teams allow there smallest players to mark the opposition big CBs from corners? While their best and biggest players are on the 6 yard line?
“Zinchenko marking Mavropanos? Saka and Trossard as Markers?”
Terry will likely have been left in similar bemusement when watching Chelsea concede this week in their 2-1 win over Crystal Palace.
Michael Olise was completely unmarked from a cross in added time of the first half, with left-back Levi Colwill instead challenging for a header.
It was further evidence that the 20-year-old seems as if he is playing in the wrong position right now, and instead would be performing a lot better if he was at the heart of defence.
However, the injuries suffered by Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella have forced Mauricio Pochettino’s hand up to now, with him seemingly not backing Ian Maatsen to feature in his regular role.
