'Did not look happy': £30m Chelsea player was fuming that he was subbed off vs Aston Villa tonight
Journalist Simon Johnson has now claimed that one Chelsea player was not happy when he was replaced during tonight’s game.
He took to Twitter to state that Noni Madueke did not look happy when he was substituted in the 0-0 draw with Aston Villa.
Chelsea were unable to book their place in the next round of a cup competition for the second time this week following the stalemate at Stamford Bridge.
However, they will at least still be in the hat for the 5th Round draw set to take place later this weekend.
Mauricio Pochettino was thinking on his feet from the start, with him having to replace Levi Colwill in the starting line-up just minutes before kick-off.
He brought in Alfie Gilchrist, whose assured performance again hinted to the manager that he should be in line for more minutes in the coming weeks.
As the Argentine chased a goal late on, he turned to his bench to utilise the attacking options he had available for him.
One of those sacrificed was Madueke, who Johnson claimed did not look happy to be removed in the second half.
He said: “Mudryk and Broja coming on for Chelsea. On for Madueke and Sterling. Madueke did not look happy.”
The England U21 star has had a far more promising last few weeks or so, and will be disappointed that he did not fully take his opportunity to impress tonight.
