Chelsea fans left puzzled as Batshauyi steals the show again for Dortmund

Queues: Take That – Back for Good.
A solitary Chelsea fan sits alone in the corner. He weeps a single tear.

Or at least that’s how we imagine all Chelsea fans to be right now as they witnessed Michy Batshuayi put in yet another star performance for Borussia Dortmund on Thursday night.

The Belgian struck another brace – his second in three games – for Die Borussen as Dortmund pulled off a last gasp win over Atalanta in the Europa league during mid-week.

The two strikes took Batshuayi’s total in a yellow shirt to five in three games. He has also registered two assists, and was given a 10/10 rating for his performance against Atalanta by ESPN.

‘Batsman’ joined Borussia on-loan on the final day of the January transfer window – as part of a trio of deals that saw Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang move to Arsenal and Olivier Giroud subsequently make the switch to Stamford Bridge.

Shunned by Antonio Conte, the 24-year-old struggled for opportunities at Chelsea in the first half of the season prior to his departure. He did however manage 12 goals, making him the club’s joint top scorer, and he has continued – trumped even – that form since his move to Germany.

His dismissal by Conte has not deterred the talented youngster. Instead, Batshauyi looks a man possessed to prove a point to the Italian.

While Chelsea continue to fail to hit top form and with their strikers still unable to find the net, the decision to let the Stamford Bridge fan favourite leave gets more perplexing by the day.

We want you back, we want you back, we want you back, for good …..
