Chelsea Fans React as Garnacho Struggles in 0-0 Draw Against Bournemouth
Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho failed to win over supporters during the Blues’ frustrating 0–0 draw against Bournemouth, and social media erupted almost instantly after his performance.
The match itself was difficult for both sides, with clear chances limited, but much of the post-game discussion centred around Garnacho’s display. Despite starting with energy, the Argentine struggled to make an impact in the final third, losing several duels and failing to provide a decisive moment.
Substitution brings “relief” among sections of the fanbase
In the 77th minute, Enzo Maresca decided to replace Garnacho with teenage sensation Estevão Willian — and online reaction came immediately.
Chelsea fans on X (formerly Twitter) didn’t hold back:
- @Blue_Footy: “Garnacho is just Mudryk who hits a lot. No 1v1 skills. Just speed, movement, and hope.”
- @Myka_veli: “Although Mudryk is better at dribbling.”
- @VinnyPaulx: “He played well in that game… in fact, everyone was disgraced.”
- @Chel5861: “Are you surprised? I’ve been saying this all along.”
- @andervogado: “Estevao is OUT. Thank God, Garnacho is no good.”
A wider frustration from fans
The reaction reflects a growing impatience from some supporters, especially following back-to-back games in which Chelsea have struggled in the final third. Garnacho, signed to bring directness and attacking threat, is still adapting to Maresca’s system — but fans are demanding more end product.
With young talents like Estevão pushing hard for minutes, pressure on Garnacho will only increase.
Chelsea return to action mid-week, and Maresca will hope someone steps up to deliver the goals the team has been missing.
