The 22-year-old has struggled during his nine months at Chelsea so far since snubbing Arsenal for the Blues
Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has claimed that Mykhailo Mudryk should blame his agent for his 'failed' move to Chelsea.
The Ukrainian international joined the Blues in January on an eight-and-a-half-year deal from Shakhtar Donetsk for a fee of €70m (£62m) but has since struggled to make a consistent impact on his side.
But current manager Mauricio Pochettino is happy with the youngster, claiming that he'll get better with time and that he has hope Mudryk will show his true potential in the near future.
"He has enormous quality and talent, it's only time for him to settle better with the team and find a way to perform in the way that we expect."
However, ex-Blues star Gallas believes that Mudryk shouldn't have gone to Stamford Bridge in the first place and that his proposed move to Arsenal would've been far better for him before Chelsea hijacked the deal.
"Last season I said Mudryk was going to regret signing for Chelsea because I thought Arsenal was the club for him to express himself. I don’t know if it was his choice, the choice of his agent to go to Chelsea, or maybe Shahktar’s choice," Gallas told Gambling Zone.
"I saw him at the beginning of the season and he was looking good, and I thought he was going to have a great season but I don’t know what has happened, why he is always on the bench and why he doesn’t get the opportunities.
"I feel sad for the players when they are in that situation. Right now, if you are talking about Mudryk, his agent didn’t take the right decision in bringing him to Chelsea. Most of the players who joined Chelsea were ready to play and if it was difficult at the beginning they adapted very well.
"That shows you the people who were working to bring players knew what they were doing. Right now it is a bit different."

Not agreeing with someone opinion and overstretched view doesn't make a fan unwise. Unwise is when people like you pretend to be wise. Blues 🔵 we move

Do you watch football? Jack Grealish was the star at Aston Villa. He carried them back to the premier league from the championship. Mudryk is going to do well this season but you can't compare his situation with that of Grealish.
When Aston Villa entered the EPL, Tammy Abraham was the star player and top performer not Jack Grilish

the comparison is he struggle at the beginning of his city career though I'm not saying things could be the same cuz am not a fortune teller. Mudryk was as well a star player at Donetsk before being signed by Chelsea

Remember when people thought city have bought a flop which was jack grelish. Pep taught jack put all his pieces together and look at him. I feel it’s the same with mudi this guy is still young let’s not expect things to happen just like that he will take time let’s just be patient and you will see the magic. He has already magic speed god like let’s not forget that he has the still all he needs is confidence

Any time Arsenal fans write , they talked about Chelsea's 12 position, But no one crucified them wen they have not qualified for CL so many years now. during those years, Chelsea have won Champions league without them even playing in it. they should just shut up and play CL league let see how far they go this year..
Why do I sense the same bitterness you are talking about in the post. The story is about Mudryk please stick to it.

Why English league like to pressure young players? Leave this guy he just 22, he has more to prove. Chelsea did the same thing before with Kelvin and the guy was sold later City bought him and today he doing well.

ha ha Arsenal went after Mudryk knowing Chelsea would step in without doing their due diligence on the player. To pay €100million and have him sitting on the bench is ridiculous.

Gallas what ever name you are known with for now, just keep your mouth shut,is it your money or are you contributing anything? This player is injured, and where do you think your so called gunners will go this season. you will see your baby coach being chased away soon,slam your self, besides you are not a coach and where have you coached before since leaving football? Just punditing! keep quiet.

Mykhailo Mudryk is a fine player that Chelsea have sign. His performance if not up to taste must personally be worked on by the coach. He is young and must be tutored by the coach to bring his performance to level desired by the coach. As for pundits, they just blow their minds to the Media for their paychecks. Mudryk is good and will perform better for Chelsea.
finally someone with sense talking.
