Jorgensen should not be anywhere near the Chelsea first team after his role in the second-half collapse vs Wolves | OneFootball

Chelsea progressed to the League Cup quarter-final with a 4-3 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, making a meal of what should have been a straightforward win.

Chelsea led 3-0 by half-time but inexplicably let the hosts back into the game thanks to some calamitous performances.

Facundo Buonanotte gave away the ball that led to the first goal by Tolu Arokodare early in the second half, starting the Chelsea capitulation.

However, Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen could have saved the second goal from David Wolfe.

The Chelsea shot-stopper let the hit get under his arm, not for the first time this season.

His claiming and kicking were also atrocious, drawing jeers from the home fans.

Jorgensen does not inspire confidence at the back as a goalkeeper. His ‘nervy’ performance earned him a 5/10 rating from Football London.

The major aspects of his game, shot-stopping, kicking, cross collection, and penalties, are worrisome.

The Blues have had their issues with Robert Sanchez, but Jorgensen has been notably below par every time he has had the starting berth.

Since joining Chelsea last season, the 23-year-old has been nothing short of disappointing.

The Dane has failed to justify his place in a top Premier League squad, looking nervous and uncertain whenever called upon.

His hesitancy when claiming crosses often spreads panic through the backline, and his lack of command in the box undermines the defence’s stability.

In his last start, he committed another costly blunder, allowing a tame penalty to squirm beneath his hands, a mistake emblematic of his season so far.

His first start for Chelsea this season against Lincoln City was equally poor.

For a club with Chelsea’s ambitions, having a goalkeeper so unconvincing between the sticks simply isn’t sustainable.

Every appearance feels like an accident waiting to happen, and it’s clear that Jorgensen is out of his depth at this level.

Thankfully, the Blues have Mike Penders developing impressively out on loan.

The Belgian’s return to Stamford Bridge next season could finally provide Chelsea with a reliable goalkeeper who looks comfortable wearing the shirt.
