Liam Delap's performance at Hull City left Chelsea fans divided, with some celebrating his three assists and others fuming over a missed opportunity. The 23-year-old striker, who made his return to his former loan club, showcased his skills with a hat-trick of assists, but also had a huge chance to score himself. However, his miss sparked a heated debate among Blues supporters, with some questioning his £30 million price tag. Despite the initial frustration, Delap's overall performance was impressive, and he ended the match with three assists, including a crucial one for Estevao Willian's goal. While some may argue that his miss was insignificant, others believe it could have been the turning point in the game. Liam Rosenior, the Chelsea manager, had to make a difficult decision on whether to start Delap or opt for a more experienced striker like Joao Pedro. The debate over Delap's performance and his role in the team is likely to continue, with fans eagerly awaiting his next move. And this is the part most people miss... The controversial moment that sparked the debate was Delap's missed opportunity in the first half. As Hull goalkeeper Dillon Phillips attempted to kick the ball long, Delap got in the way, causing the ball to hit his leg and nearly go over the line. Chelsea's No.9 thought he had scored, but the ball spun back out to him, and he tried to round Phillips but was dispossessed. This moment left fans questioning his decision-making and whether he was the right choice for the team. So, what do you think? Was Delap's miss a significant moment in the game, or was it just a minor blip? And what does the future hold for him at Chelsea? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
