Chelsea are in high spirits after defeating Newcastle United in the league cup. Moreover, this win has boosted their confidence for the upcoming matches. The blues are struggling this season. They’re having a hard time getting closer to the top 4 spot. They are currently lying in the middle of the table. In addition to that, the club has been dealing with injuries for a while now. However, there has been some sort of good news in the form of Christopher Nkunku’s return to the team. The Frenchman was injured in the pre season friendly and was out of the team till now. However, he made his debut against Newcastle United. Although he only played for 20 minutes, he got the support of the home fans who believe that Christopher Nkunku should be a regular starter for the team in the upcoming matches.
According to the Chelseachronicle, Christopher Nkunku’s debut was the most awaited moment for the fans at the Stamford Bridge on Sunday. The fans were full of cheers for the 20 minutes that Nkunku played. Moreover, he didn’t let the home fans down and scored a penalty in the shootout to give his team the advantage. Although he couldn’t score in the regular time, he still had a positive impact on the team post his arrival on the pitch. Now that he’s made his debut, we believe that he should start against Wolves in Chelsea’s next league match.
Christopher Nkunku should now assist the team in getting back to the winning track.
This is for the first time this season that Chelsea are looking confident. Furthermore, it seems like they can challenge any team across Europe. Now that Christopher Nkunku has finally got back to the field for Chelsea, he should now help them in attack. Attack is one of the areas that Mauricio Pochettino needs to work upon. And with Nkunku’s return, the Argentine coach has the chance to revive the team’s best form again.
