Chelsea star Mason Mount launched a damning verdict on his side's performance versus Dinamo Zagreb and declared that the Blues must up their standards. The 23-year-old could not hide his disappointment as he reflected on how the team could not capitalise on a promising start.
Chelsea created chances before Mislav Orsic outpaced Wesley Fofana and sent the ball past Kepa but lost their way in the opening half. Thomas Tuchel set in motion a number of changes during the second. Formations were altered, and all five substitutes were used in the second 45 minutes. The Blues applied more pressure as the game went on, but it never truly felt like Chelsea had the conviction to score. An increasingly familiar feeling.
The frustration was evident across Chelsea's faces come the full-time whistle, with the group wasting little time in heading back to the changing rooms, heads bowed. Mount was unhappy with the manner in which the Blues conceded and the pressure it adds but had some demands for every sing player in the squad.
