Mykhailo Mudryk and Reece James both played an important role for Chelsea in their win today.
Mudryk opened the scoring, while James assisted Nicolas Jackson’s late winner.
At full time, there was a moment between the two of them which an eagle-eyed fan noticed.
Mudryk had James in an embrace, and seemed to say “he’s back, he’s back” to his captain to celebrate James’ return to action. There was good vibes all around at full time – how could there not be after a late comeback to win?
Many fans have lost patience with the winger, who has had some bad games and doesn’t always show the most focused attitude on the pitch either, but moments like this will make him a lot more popular and show his human side clearly. If he can keep scoring goals as he did today, that will help too.
