Chelsea's Man of the match on Wednesday night Callum Hudson-Odoi caught the eye despite being asked to play in a rather unfamiliar position. Man of the match Callum Hudson-Odoi put in a brilliant performance in a 0-0 against Wolves The youngster was started at right back by Thomas Tuchel in the Germans' first game in charge and was later switched to the left hand side later on in the game as Christian Pulisic came on. The game as a whole finished in a 0-0 stalemate with not a lot of chances although changes began to increase for Chelsea nearer the end of the game. One of those was a shot from Hudson-Odoi as he cut in from the left hand side only for the shot to be saved.  However it was not only Hudson-Odoi's attacking work which saw him awarded the man of the match, it was in fact his duties as a wing-back  which were evident as the game ended when he snuffed out a dangerous attack from Wolves.  Afterwards, Hudson-Odoi said 'I spotted it straight away'. ' I rem

And that Ladies and gentlemen is all she wrote. Another dreadful, woeful, shambolic, rubbish and pathetic performance from Chelsea Football Club as we slip to a 2-0 defeat away at the King Power Stadium to slip to 9th in the premier league table. everything that could have got worse did get worse we were nowhere in the first half we allowed Leicester's players too much time on the ball there was no marking for both of Leicester's goals. we were slow out of the blocks in that first half Leicester were all over us and could and probably should have scored more in the first half. In the second half it was a case of damage limitations but we still didn't do enough when we had the ball and Leicester kept counter attacking us. Leicester had already secured the game so didn't have to do much and were under little pressure and played in 2nd gear and thoroughly deserved their win. For Chelsea on the other hand thought its back to the drawing board. What's happened has Frank
