Eidur Gudjohnsen Reviles Ross Barkley after Failing a Penalty

DBasia.news –  Chelsea failed to achieve full points when hosting Valencia at Stamford Bridge in the first Champions League group match.

A few interesting events and attention in the game that ended with the score 1-0, one of which was when Ross Barkley failed to execute a penalty in the 87th minute.

Barkley, who had just entered in the 80th minute, replaced Mateo Kovacic, who immediately ran and volunteered as the executor, whereas previously Jorginho had been seen going to take a penalty, as well as Willian. Jorginho did not object this and then encouraged his team mates.

Unfortunately, this does not apply to Willian, he appeared furious and is still trying to persuade Barkley to give him a penalty, but the former Everton player still insisted and seemed to signal to his team-mates that he was be able to carry out their duties properly, but what happened was on the contrary.

This event certainly invited comments from various parties, including the former Blues striker Eidur Gudjohnsen. The man from Iceland even criticized Ross Barkley’s attitude and judged that the player did not respect his own teammates.

“Ross Barkley really behaved impolitely and disrespected his own teammates in this match. I am pretty sure that the person who is going to execute the penalty has been determined before the match,” Gudjohnsen said as reported by Goal.

“The failure of Barkley’s penalty will only further make the atmosphere in the team less conducive while increasing tension between him and the other players. He will also be increasingly under pressure,” added the man who also had time to defend Barcelona.

The defeat of Valencia is certainly very detrimental to Frank Lampard’s squad, they now occupy the top three standings of Group H, while the top position is filled by Ajax Amsterdam who at the same time has won a landslide 3-0 win over Lille.
