Mudryk wasn’t happy.

Mykhailo Mudryk appeared to vent his frustrations after he liked an Instagram post appearing to criticise his Chelsea teammate, Marc Cucurella.

Chelsea dropped points yet again after they were held to a 1-1 draw away to West Ham on Saturday.

João Félix’s first goal for the club was cancelled out by former Blues defender Emerson Palmieri however there was controversy as Tomáš Souček appeared to handle the ball in the box, only for VAR to think otherwise. 

After the game, Mudryk appeared to like a post criticising Cucurella, who played on the same side of the pitch as the Ukrainian.

Cucurella was subjected to a chorus of boos when he was replaced by Ben Chilwell in the 67th minute however Graham Potter defended the Spaniard.

He said: “Supporters are entitled to their opinion of course, they just want the team to do well and as I said in the previous press conference I don’t think Marc is in his absolute best moment.

“But at the same time, he’s been part of a team that’s kept a clean sheet at Anfield, a clean sheet against Fulham.

“In the summer, I know because I was at the selling club, there was another club that were interested in Marc.

“From a points view in the Premier League, they are a good club, so Marc hasn’t become a bad player at all but some players can go through bad times so we need to stick together and help him.”

According to The Sun, the winger has unliked the post since.
