Chelsea and Wolverhampton Wanderers played out a really exciting match in their Premier League encounter at Molineux today, which ended 6-2 to the visitors.

Chelsea took an early lead after Nicolas Jackson opened the scoring in the second minute. It led to Jackson winding up Wolves fans in what was a fiery affair.

Matheus Cunha then equalised before the Blues went back in front thanks to Cole Palmer. But they could not go into the break in the lead after Jorgen Strand Larsen cancelled out Palmer’s excellent lob.

Noni Madueke was the next Chelsea attacker to score, impressing one pundit with his overall performance at Molineux.

Noni Madueke combined well with Cole Palmer

Madueke went up against Rayan Ait-Nouri, and former Crystal Palace forward Clinton Morrison felt that the 22-year-old gave the Wolves defender a torrid time while linking up well with £45m attacker Palmer.

Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, with BBC Sport sharing his words, Morrison said: “Rayan Ait-Nouri has to be careful now he is on a yellow card.

“Noni Madueke has caused him all sorts of problems so far in this game, he combined well there with Cole Palmer, a lovely backheeled pass too.”

The England U21 international has been linked with a move to Newcastle United, but Enzo Maresca wants to keep Madueke.

Noni Madueke’s hat-trick against Wolves

Madueke was absolutely menacing down the right as he went on to score a hat-trick.

With Chelsea signing Pedro Neto and Joao Felix, Madueke’s spot in Enzo Maresca‘s squad did not look too safe.

However, after his hat-trick against Wolves and goal versus Servette in the Conference League midweek, he now has to be one of the first names on the team sheet.

In those positions just behind the striker, Maresca is spoilt for choice. As well as Madueke, Neto, Felix, Palmer and Mykhailo Mudryk are also options for the new Chelsea manager.

In the win at Wolves, the Blues’ defending was not the most convincing. But going forward, they were excellent.

With the likes of Madueke, Palmer and Neto, Chelsea look like they are going to have a really exciting attack this season. There is just the small matter of keeping all of these offensive players happy.
