Former Chelsea skipper Dennis Wise has lamented the decision of the club not to sign Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy during the summer’s transfer window.
Lack of goals from the striking department has plagued Chelsea in the new campaign thus leading ex-Chelsea midfielder Dennis Wise to question the decision not to sign the aforementioned Vardy in the summer.
Chelsea legend Dennis Wise spoke about Chelsea and their strikers’ struggles while he fielded questions from reporters during the Sportsperson With A Personality Award.
Chelsea strikers have struggled for consistency this season.
Both Olivier Giroud and Alvaro Morata have failed to light up Stamford Bridge with goals.
Both players have just 11 goals between them in the colours of the Blues in all competitions.
Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri finally lost faith in the two players after he started Eden Hazard in the false nine roles in their last league game against Premier League champions Manchester City.
The tactical switch was successful as Chelsea ended the Citizens’ unbeaten run in the Premier League via a 2-0 win.
N’Golo Kante and David Luiz scored either side of the halftime interval to give Chelsea an unexpected victory.
Apart from Vardy, Chelsea were linked with Italy-based strikers like Gonzalo Higuain and Mauro Icardi in the summer.
