Chelsea ratings from 3-1 defeat to Liverpool: Mourinho 3/10, Dirty Diego equally bad

Posted by

Cesar Azpilicueta – 7/10

Perhaps the only Chelsea player whose form hasn’t noticeably dipped since last season. He was again impressive at left-back, keeping things simple in defence, and setting up Ramires for the game’s opening goal with an excellent cross.

Replaced by Radamel Falcao (5/10) for the final 15 minutes as Mourinho went all-out attack, to no avail.

John Obi Mikel – 7/10

Selected ahead of Nemanja Matic. Sat deep and did a decent job as an anchor man, making seven tackles before making way for Cesc Fabregas (5/10), who came on for the final 20 minutes.

Ramires – 7/10

With Obi Mikel sitting, Ramires was afforded freedom to get forward. And he took full advantage early on by getting into the box to score the game’s opening goal.

Willian – 7/10

Won 10 free kicks during a tough physical battle.

Oscar – 4/10

Coasted through the 90 minutes, offering very little offensively.
