Former Premier League top scorer, Chris Sutton has slammed Brentford striker Neal Maupay following a decision against Chelsea.
Travelling to Stamford Bridge was set to be a stern test for Brentford but it was brushed aside in a professional manner.
The side was set up perfectly by Thomas Frank. It gave the Bees the platform to go on to win the game.
The opening goal scored by Ethan Pinnock allowed for a defensive shut out and this was done to great effect.
This saw Chelsea push and push as they looked to get an equaliser.
What has Chris Sutton said about Neal Maupay?
The Blues continued to look for an equaliser as the clock ticked down towards the 90-minute mark.
As the last attack of the game came, Chelsea keeper, Robert Sanchez came up and failed to make an impact.
The ball was cleared and Neal Maupay broke away with the ball. It looked as if he would grab his first goal since rejoining the Bees with an open goal at his mercy.
Bearing down on goal, the Frenchman decided to square the ball to starman Bryan Mbeumo to tap in for his sixth goal of the season.
Former striker, Chris Sutton was against this decision given the Everton loanee’s lack of goals.
Speaking on BBC The Monday Night Club, he said: “If I was Neal Maupay, I tell you, I’d retire. I mean come on.”
It must be said with the striker in the team in recent weeks, the Bees have been better given a vocal point.
In recent weeks he has said how desperate he is for a goal. It felt like this was the easiest chance he will ever get.
Maybe confidence is so low that he didn’t back himself to score into the empty net. He needs that all-important first goal, that is for sure.
