“He’s proving haters wrong”, “Our next Hazard” – Chelsea fans praise 21-year-old Chelsea star after outstanding performance in 3-2 win over Luton
Chelsea fans on X have waxed lyrical about Noni Madueke after his excellent performance during the Blues’ 3-2 win against Luton Town on Saturday, December 30.
Mauricio Pochettino and Co. had a dominant start at Kenilworth Road with Cole Palmer breaking the deadlock in the 12th minute with a fine finish. Madueke scored his second goal in as many games in the 37th minute with a superb strike which crept in at the near post, past Thomas Kaminski.
Palmer showed great composure in the 70th minute to give Chelsea a 3-0 lead. However, Luton fiercely rallied back and were unfortunate to have a goal ruled out for offside four minutes later.
Ross Barkley pulled one back in the 80th minute with a free header, before Elijah Adebayo tapped home to give the hosts hope seven minutes later.
The Blues held onto their lead to secure all three points. They remain in 10th place in the Premier League standings with 28 points from 20 games, 14 points behind leaders Liverpool who have a gamed in hand.Fans were impressed by Noni Madueke’s performance. The 21-year-old scored a good goal, created three big chances, and completed 21 out of his 23 passes with an accuracy of 91 percent. He also made five recoveries and won nine duels.One fan posted:

Come on Chelsea
@SH_O_KI_: My baller ????????????
@CFCMod_: Madueke could’ve easily turned out like Sancho so this is very impressive, after falling out with the manager earlier he fought his way back and look at him now, I’m so proud.
@kofoworola__a: I liked what I saw from Madueke today. Just like Mudryk in the last game, both of them have improved defensively especially on their workrate. ????????
@Pighty: “Noni can’t pass”
“Noni isn’t clinical enough”
“Noni can only dribble”
