VIDEO: Loic Remy saves his best for the post-season with thunderbolt against Sydney

Pick that one out

Loic Remy would have been frustrated at his lack of opportunities at Stamford Bridge this season.

9 goals in 29 appearances for the Blues isn’t the worst return but the fact that he never stood any real chance of dethroning Diego Costa from his place as Jose Mourinho’s preferred striker would have irked the Frenchman.

And he let every ounce of frustration out on the Sydney goal during Chelsea’s post-season game Down Under.

After collecting the ball on the right flank, the former QPR striker cut inside onto his left boot and let fly with a rip-roaring effort that left the ‘keeper with no chance.

So if Diego Costa does return to Atletico, with rumours of his unhappiness in London, Remy has truly set out his stall to be in contention for first-choice on Jose’s teamsheet.
