A section of the Chelsea FC fans have praised the performance of Jorginho during the club’s 2-1 away win over Watford in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Italy international came for much criticism from the club’s supporters last term where he was generally passing the ball sideways without much penetration in the attacking point of view.
However, he has transformed his game on the guidance of Frank Lampard and he has looked more positive with most of his passing aimed at getting the forwards into play.
Against the Hornets, Jorginho probably registered the assist of the campaign after he provided a wonderful defence splitting pass from nearly the halfway line for Tammy Abraham.
The Italian had tried the same kind of delivery in the past without much success but he aced it at Vicarage Road after providing a first time pass for Abraham, who scored with ease.
Here are some of the reactions…
Jorginho did concede a soft penalty during the final 10 minutes of the game but that did not prove costly with Christian Pulisic scoring prior to the hour mark to double the club’s advantage.
The Italian is expected to miss the Premier League clash against Crystal Palace next weekend after picking up his fifth yellow card of the top-flight campaign.
