Murphy and Rooney talk about Maresca s substitution: It s really strange, without Neto and Palmer, there is no creativity
Early this morning, Chelsea lost to Manchester United 1-2, and Danny Murphy and Rooney talked about Maresca's substitution after the game.
Murphy told the BBC: "I think it's understandable to replace an extra defender and remove the forward, but it's really puzzling to replace Palmer after a few minutes behind 0-1. We think it's extremely negative to replace Neto and Palmer. Well, we believe Palmer is indeed trapped by injury, but maybe we should replace him at the beginning to leave Neto to maintain a speed advantage."
"Because even after the number of players in the second half, Chelsea lacks substantial threat in the counterattack, and only Joao Pedro is truly forward-study."
Rooney said: "They have all the imagination on the court, but that's right. It is what Chelsea lacked. Although the ball possession in the second half was mostly horizontal transmission, it lacked the creativity that Neto or Palmer could provide. "
"This substitution is indeed strange, but it is good for Manchester United. The whole game was very strange. When both sides were ten people fighting, Chelsea did not show the urgency to recover the score at all. "
" They did score a goal through crosses, but there were very few crosses in the penalty area. Two crosses were exchanged for a goal and a good opportunity. The team's pace was slow and overly horizontal transmission. Although the weather was bad, as Chelsea fans, they definitely hoped to see a stronger desire to win. "
