“Ego of Cristiano Ronaldo and ability of Jonathan Walters” – Chelsea fans slam Blues star who makes football look ‘difficult’ and ‘messy’ after FA Cup final defeat to Liverpool

Chelsea fans have slammed striker Romelu Lukaku for an abject showing in their FA Cup final loss to Liverpool on Saturday, May 12.The Blues were beaten 6-5 on penalties at Wembley, becoming the first side in the competition's history to lose three finals in a row. Just like in the Carabao Cup final in February, the Premier League giants played out a goalless draw after 120 minutes. Liverpool won back then 11-10 on penalties.The first round of the penalty shootout ended 4-4 after both sides missed one each, with Cesar Azpilicueta and Sadio Mane being the culprits. A miss from Mason Mount then allowed Kostas Tsimikas to fire home the winning spot-kick as the Merseysiders lifted their eighth FA Cup trophy.

He failed to muster a single shot on target and completed only five passes in 85 minutes of action.Coming into the match with three goals in his last two games, the Belgian was in great form but dropped another stinker in the final. His touches were generally awful. He also skied one good chance over the crossbar in the opening stanza, although Virgil van Dijk deserves credit for marking him closely.Chelsea fans have now taken to social media to vent their frustrations at the 29-year-old.
