Ex-Ukraine star Vorobey: Mudryk should've chosen Arsenal over Chelsea

Former Ukraine star Andrey Vorobey has recommended Chelsea winger Mykhaylo Mudryk visit a sports shrink.

Vorobey feels too much expectation has been placed on his countryman given his €100m price-tag.

He said, "It's like a child who has to be held by the hand, even though he costs 100 million euros.

"Mudryk is a little overrated, but it is an irreversible situation.

"It was too early to judge Mudryk as a leader and top player. He still has to work hard and overcome difficulties to achieve results. Although Mudryk has incredible physical attributes, speed and vision, he lacks the analytical thinking to make decisions. That will come over time.

"Maybe it was too early to go to a club as important as Chelsea. Maybe Arsenal would have been the ideal option. But what happened happened. Now he has to go through this. Mudryk will only be able to overcome the pressure by training, hard work and winning."
