On Wednesday, 31 January, Chelsea met Liverpool away in a match of the 22nd round of the English Premier League. Mauricio Pochettino's team suffered a 1-4 defeat. The English press criticised the Chelsea winger for this match.
"Misses a great chance in the 50th minute, moments after coming on. Maybe it's his left foot, but he just needs to play better."
"He had a great chance coming off the bench at half-time, but he shot over the bar. He did nothing else."
"Moments after coming on, Mudryk missed a chance at the stadium where he made his Chelsea debut."
"Had Chelsea's best chance of the match but fired over the top. Another player who still looks desperately weak a year after joining the club."
"He added pace to Pochettino's attack."
"Desire and a lot of running".
"Had a fantastic opportunity to get Chelsea back into the game just five minutes after coming on, but his shot sailed so far over the bar it could have landed at Goodison Park.
