Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk have liked an Instagram post saying his teammate, Marc Cucurella doesn’t pass the ball to him.
West Ham held Chelsea to an unexpected 1-1 draw, with the Blues yet to get a win since the inclusion of their new expensive signings.
Having impressed in his first 35 minutes in a Chelsea shirt against Liverpool, Mudryk is yet to prove his worth to the hungered Chelsea fans hoping see him at his very best.

Mudryk had a frustrating game against The Hammers, with the winger seeing less of the ball. Left back, Marc Cucurella got all the blames for Mykhailo Mudryk getting less time on the ball.
In one of the match scenarios, Marc Cucurella received the ball inside the West Ham half as Mudryk was making a run down the left and slipping in behind his defender into space.
Cucurella moved inside instead of finding the winger, playing a straightforward pass to Enzo Fernandez, who wasn’t pleased with the choice.

Chelsea supporters caught up on the incident and others like it, with one image showing Cucurella blanking Mudryk in favor of his other Chelsea teammates.

A similar social media episode this week involving Chelsea’s co-owner Todd Boehly implicated Cucurella, who has also been struggling with a personal issue lately.
On Thursday, Boehly’s Twitter account liked a tweet from football.london that included remarks from legendary Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf in the post.
We don’t want to see Cucurella anymore,’ the club’s former defender said. ‘With all due respect to a man that I don’t know, the player is not good enough for Chelsea. It’s as simple as that.’
