4 Reasons Why Rio Ferdinand Is Right To Raise Concerns About Edouard Mendy’s Form

BT Sport pundit Rio Ferdinand has expressed concern about Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy’s recent performances

The Senegalese shot-stopper was involved in a controversial incident late on against West Ham at the weekend, when a goal for the Hammers was ruled out by VAR, and Ferdinand feels Mendy has been making too many errors recently:

“I think the biggest thing for Chelsea from this game [against West Ham] is Edouard Mendy is becoming far too involved in situations like this. Against Leeds, he was at fault for the first goal. This one as well. There’s been other occasions where he’s made mistakes and hasn’t been punished. They need to iron that out quick because he was brilliant last season, he was phenomenal.He needs to eradicate those mistakes from his game. You don’t want to be in the news as a goalkeeper. The less you talk about them the better they’re doing. At the moment he’s also in the news.”
