Morgan Rogers, Cole Palmer react to message from Chelsea ace Tosin Adarabioyo
Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers and Chelsea’s Cole Palmer reacted to a message on social media from Tosin Adarabioyo.
The Blues cruised to a 3-0 win in the first leg of their Conference League quarter-final against Legia Warszawa.
Two goals from Aston Villa target Noni Madueke followed a goal from academy graduate, Tyrique George.
In spite of heavy speculation surrounding Jadon Sancho’s Chelsea future, the English winger put in a solid performance.
The result was also a welcome one for the Blues’ boss, as Enzo Maresca finds himself under pressure following a disappointing mid-season.
Tosin Adarabioyo sends message to Chelsea fans
Following the win in Poland, Adarabioyo shared a series of photos on Instagram, captioned: “Clean sheet. Three goals. W in Poland.”
The post was then liked by Chelsea teammate Palmer, and Aston Villa‘s Rogers, showing support for the 27-year-old.
Whilst winning the Conference League would guarantee the Blues a place in next year’s Europa League, the West London side will hope to maintain their good form and capture a Champions League spot for next year.
Chelsea will face off against Ipswich in their next game on Sunday, 13 April.
Christopher Nkunku’s Chelsea woes continue against Legia Warszawa
Football Insider Verdict
During Chelsea’s 0-0 draw with Brentford at the weekend, footage caught Christopher Nkunku and Robert Sanchez having a heated on-field debate.
The French striker has struggled to settle in West London and was linked with a move to Bayern Munich in January.
Following an injury to Nicolas Jackson, Nkunku has had ample opportunity to make the number nine position his own, but has failed to live up to expectations.
| Match stats | Legia Warszawa | Chelsea |
| Possession | 28% | 72% |
| Shots (on target) | 8 (1) | 24 (10) |
| Expected goals | 0.42 | 4.08 |
| Big chances (missed) | 1 (1) | 5 (2) |
| Corners | 6 | 8 |
Against their Polish opposition, Chelsea never looked in danger of failing to win, but the French striker once again looked uncomfortable leading the line for the Blues, missing a penalty in the second half.
As a consequence of his misfortunes and underperformance this season, the Blues may look to cash in on their French striker in the summer.
