“Is high time we drop him” “He’s costing us games” – Chelsea fans calls for 21-years-old Chelsea star to be dropped for Chelsea youngster
Chelsea supporters are debating Malo Gusto’s recent slump in play, with many calling for young Josh Acheampong to be given a chance in the Premier League.
Some blame Gusto’s poor play in recent games on tactical changes made by Enzo Maresca, who has been using him as an inverted fullback, a position that seems to go against the defender’s natural style of play.
Gusto’s supporters think that the squad and the player’s confidence might both gain from his rest. What some admirers had to say was as follows:
@tovers98: “Malo Gusto has been really out of form lately. He is making errors which are costing goals and will be hitting his confidence, and I think a spell out of the team is needed. Acheampong or Caicedo at RB would be better for Ipswich.”
@_doony0: “So many times when in possession at the right back position I wish it was Acheampong to just carry the ball past some players and make something happen instead of getting out in an uncomfortable situation.”
@CFCdruw: “Josh Acheampong starting against Ipswich HAS to be one of the chances Enzo Maresca makes on Monday.”
@tiamcfc: “Malo Gusto has been playing badly from the start. So yeah, let Josh Acheampong play.”
Acheampong’s qualities have also been highlighted, with @CFCdruw praising the defender’s mentality: “I would like to see Josh Acheampong play in the Premier League. His composure and confidence at such a young age…”
As Chelsea prepare to face Ipswich, fans are eagerly awaiting Maresca’s lineup to see if the talented Acheampong will get his Premier League debut.
