Chelsea put in an absolutely rampant display in the Europa Conference League on Thursday night, scoring a whopping eight goals against Noah at Stamford Bridge.
Enzo Maresca called upon his so-called Chelsea B-team once again in the Europa Conference League, and boy did they deliver, with six different goal scorers.
Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku grabbed a brace each, while Tosin Adarabioyo, Marc Guiu, Axel Disasi and Mykhailo Mudryk added one piece.
Noah certainly didn’t help themselves, as a number of Chelsea’s goals were handed to them on a plate due to a combination of bad defending and carelessness.
Chelsea now sit top of the Europa Conference League standings with 16 goals scored in just three games, which is a clear sign of their dominance in this competition.
There was one player in particular who caught the eyes of Chelsea fans with his Noah performance.
Joao Felix’s performance in numbers against Noah
Joao Felix was one of the stars of the show once again in the Europa Conference League, grabbing his second successive brace in the competition.
He played the full 90 minutes plus stoppage time against Noah. During this time, he had 58 touches of the ball, a passing accuracy percentage of 78, two goals, made two key passes, completed five long balls, completed two crosses, created one big chance, successfully made five dribbles and won six duels.
It comes as no surprise that Benoit Badiashille described Felix as a ‘smart’ player ahead of the Noah clash, as his movement was brilliant on occasions tonight.
Enzo Maresca could call on Felix against Arsenal if Cole Palmer doesn’t resolve a potential issue in the next couple of days.
