Chelsea secured their first back-to-back clean sheets since October on Saturday afternoon with a hard-fought 0-0 draw at Liverpool. The contest at Anfield provided an opportunity for Mykhailo Mudryk to show why the Blues coughed up £88million for his services and there were plenty of positives.
Mudryk replaced Lewis Hall in the 55th minute in Merseyside and came close to marking his debut in perfect fashion with a chance squandered from close range. The 22-year-old showed terrific quick feet to beat James Milner and Joe Gomez inside the area before firing his left-footed strike into the side-netting.
The game was Mudryk's first appearance since November 23, possibly allowing for his rustiness in front of goal. However, his debut for his new club will all but inject an influx of positivity amongst the Chelsea fanbase going forward.
