Marc Guiu's Premier League Debut with Chelsea Ends in Defeat
Marc Guiu's Tough Start with Chelsea
Marc Guiu, the promising forward from Granollers, officially debuted with Chelsea this past Sunday, but it was a match to forget as they fell short against Manchester City with a score of 0-2. Guiu, who previously made headlines at FC Barcelona, entered the game in the 67th minute but didn’t manage to showcase his scoring abilities.
Match Overview
In the brief 27 minutes on the pitch, Guiu only completed one dribble and touched the ball six times. He achieved a pass accuracy of 75%, successfully completing three out of four attempted passes. However, he lost possession twice and struggled to break through the strong defense of Manchester City.
Player Background
The young talent, known for his number 38 jersey—mirroring his debut number at FC Barcelona—joined Chelsea on July 1st after the club activated his release clause, set at six million euros. Despite the depth of Enzo Maresca's squad, which includes 42 players, Chelsea's start to the Premier League has been marred by another home defeat, raising concerns about their strategic planning this season.
