Mykhaylo Mudryk’s former team-mate, Georgiy Sudakov, claims to have spoken with the Chelsea man about why his Premier League career is yet to take off. And Mudryk has allegedly pinned the blame on a lack of killer service from those at Stamford Bridge, with Mauricio Pochettino’s side collectively struggling for consistency.<\/p>\n
Mudryk has scored only two Premier League goals since signing from Shakhtar in a bumper \u00a388million deal back in January. The 22-year-old has been forced to make do with cameos from the bench throughout November, with Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer locking down the wide positions.<\/p>\n
Another shake-up could be on the cards, however, after the Blues were humbled by Newcastle United in a 4-1 thrashing on Saturday. Mudryk came on for the final 20 minutes but he was unable to turn the tide in Chelsea’s favour.<\/p>\n
Approaching his one-year anniversary in west London, the Ukraine international has come nowhere near the scintillating Shakhtar form which convinced Chelsea to part with such a huge transfer fee.<\/p>\n
