Chelsea news: Mykhailo Mudryk was targeted by a laser pen from the Emirates Stadium crowd in the Blues' Premier League defeat to Arsenal
Mykhailo Mudryk has provided his response to the incident that took place during Arsenal vs Chelsea which saw a green laser pen shone in his face. The Blues winger was on the verge of joining the Gunners in January before Chelsea swooped in and signed the 22-year-old in a major transfer hijack.
Frank Lampard named Mudryk on the bench for the London derby clash but he was introduced with just under 20 minutes to play. Fellow winter window arrival Noni Madueke had pulled one back for the visitors at Emirates Stadium, but Mudryk could not repeat his team-mates achievement, instead enduring a relatively quiet cameo.
In the hours following the clash, Mudryk has since provided his response to the incident. Posting an Instagram story where the laser can clearly be seen on his face, Mudryk added the caption "it's ok" *two hands that make a heart emoji*.
Since arriving at Stamford Bridge in an £88million deal, Mudryk has struggled for consistent game time appearing for just 506 Premier League minutes with only five starts coming his way. In that time he has grabbed two assists but is yet to find his first goal in a Chelsea shirt.

I'm with Mudryk on this one, I mean the guy made the right decision choosing Chelsea over Arsenal and I mean no disrespect to Arsenal fans but just because Chelsea is passing through some difficult times doesn't mean that they'll not be back... MUDRYK chose more money he chose a club with the POTENTIAL to win some real authentic silverware the EPL and probably a European cup which Arsenal cannot provide, MUDRYK looked at the bigger picture here and Chelsea is a more bigger picture than Arsenal whether we like it or not. I bet that if it were Chelsea that are in this kind of form like Arsenal I strongly doubt that they'll slip so easily... MUDRYK chose the bigger picture and he who laughs last laughs the BEST😃😃😃
