Liam Delap mistakes in Chelsea Vs los Angeles pointed out


 Liam Delap made his Chelsea debut against Los Angeles FC in the Club World Cup, and while he received a lot of praise for his immediate impact (assisting Enzo Fernandez's goal), there were a couple of minor points noted by observers.

One of the main "mistakes" or areas for improvement highlighted by some, including former Premier League striker Gabriel Agbonlahor, was that Delap initially gave the ball away too often. Agbonlahor attributed this to nerves, which is understandable for a debut.

Another instance mentioned was when Delap clattered into LAFC captain Aaron Long, leaving him on the floor, though this was seen by some as a positive display of aggression and "Chelsea colours" rather than a mistake.

Overall, the sentiment around Delap's debut was overwhelmingly positive. He showed good movement, linked up well, and provided a crucial assist. While there were a few early touches that looked "a bit fast" for him, as noted by Micah Richards, he quickly grew into the game and made a significant impact. These minor issues are typical for a player making their debut, especially after a recent transfer, and are generally seen as areas for growth rather than major flaws.
