“Soon he will be a top player and win over Chelsea fans”, “Let’s stop the hate on him” – Chelsea fans impressed by 25-year-old Chelsea star display in 2-0 win over Fulham
Chelsea picked up their second Premier League win of the season, defeating city rivals Fulham 2-0 at Craven Cottage to move up to 11th place. The Blues had several standout performers in the match, including French centre-back Axel Disasi.
The Blues began the day dangerously close to the relegation zone and knew only a victory would do for them. They picked up an impressive win over Brighton and Hove Albion in the Carabao Cup last week, giving the side a bit of a lift.
Chelsea had picked up only five points from six matches heading into the encounter, with their sole win coming against Luton Town. They suffered a defeat against Aston Villa in their last league match after an Ollie Watkins goal, with Malo Gusto sent off in the second half.The Blues got into rhythm quickly in West London, with two goals in the space of 71 seconds proving to be enough for the win. Mykhailo Mudryk and Armando Broja scored for the Blues in the 18th and 19th minute each to hand Chelsea their first away win of the season.While the attack did a good job, the defense also played its part in keeping a third shut-out of the season. 25-year-old defender Axel Disasi was singled out for praise by the Chelsea faithful on X (formerly Twitter) after an impressive showing for the side.
Some X users declared that the former AS Monaco man was impressive and did a good job in the game.
