“Liabilities players” “Both are playing against us” – Chelsea Legend John Terry openly slams two Chelsea players after disappointing defeat to Aston Villa claims they don’t deserve to play for Chelsea team
Chelsea legend John Terry was disappointed after another loss as the Blues lost 2-1 to Aston Villa as Top4 looks shaky once again..John claims he watch every bit of the game and was absolutely disappointed by some of the performances.
John Terry said after the match: “I watched every second of the full 90-minute match between Aston Villa and Chelsea, and it was nothing short of a disaster for the Blues. The 2-1 defeat was not just disappointing; it was a reflection of deeper issues within the squad. After scoring first through Enzo Fernandez, Chelsea completely lost control of the game, allowing Aston Villa to turn the match around. It was a performance that lacked urgency, composure, and most of all, quality. While several players failed to step up, two individuals stood out for all the wrong reasons, and their displays were simply unacceptable”
Chelsea legend John Terry did not hold back in his criticism, voicing his frustration over the performances of Christopher Nkunku and Malo Gusto. Both players struggled throughout the match, making costly errors and failing to contribute in the way Chelsea needed them to. Terry, who knows what it takes to wear the Chelsea badge with pride, was brutally honest in his assessment, questioning their suitability for the club moving forward. Fans have also echoed his sentiments, taking to social media to express their disappointment in the duo.
Christopher Nkunku, who arrived with high expectations, has been struggling to make a meaningful impact, and this game was another example of his shortcomings. Despite being an attacking player expected to create chances and influence the game, he was largely invisible. His movements were predictable, his passing lacked sharpness, and his finishing was nowhere to be seen. In moments when Chelsea needed a spark, Nkunku failed to provide it, leaving the team without a true attacking threat. His lack of urgency and failure to impose himself on the game left Chelsea fans frustrated, and Terry made it clear that performances like this are unacceptable at a club of Chelsea’s stature.
Malo Gusto, on the other hand, had a night to forget in defense. His positioning was questionable, his decision-making was poor, and he was repeatedly caught out of place. Against a Villa side that exploited every weakness, Gusto was a liability rather than an asset. Defensively, he struggled to contain his opponents, often losing duels and allowing dangerous attacks to develop. Offensively, he failed to contribute anything meaningful, offering little in terms of creativity or link-up play. John Terry, known for his defensive discipline and leadership, was particularly unimpressed with Gusto’s display, criticizing his lack of awareness and defensive responsibility.
The Chelsea fanbase was in complete agreement with Terry’s harsh criticism. Many supporters expressed their disappointment, calling for changes and questioning whether Nkunku and Gusto truly belong at the club. Social media was flooded with reactions, with fans demanding accountability for such poor performances. Some even went as far as suggesting that Chelsea should consider moving on from both players, arguing that they are not good enough to be part of the club’s long-term plans.
This defeat to Aston Villa was not just another loss; it was a wake-up call. Chelsea’s ambitions of securing a top-four finish have been seriously damaged, and if performances like this continue, they risk falling further behind.
John Terry’s brutal assessment of Nkunku and Gusto reflects a growing concern among Chelsea supporters that some players are simply not meeting the required standard. With the season reaching its critical stages, Chelsea cannot afford to carry underperforming players. It remains to be seen how Enzo Maresca will respond to this setback, but one thing is clear: changes are needed, and the futures of Nkunku and Gusto at Chelsea are now under serious scrutiny.
