It has taken Jadon Sancho no time at all to make an impact at Chelsea, with the winger providing yet another assist on Saturday.
It was Jadon Sancho‘s third since joining Chelsea from Manchester United on deadline day and helped the Blues to beat Brighton & Hove Albion 4-2.
The 24-year-old registered an assist on his debut against Bournemouth before recording another one away at West Ham United a week later.
Compared to other wide men, former Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood thinks Sancho is so smart.
Marc Cucurella impressed with Jadon Sancho in Chelsea’s win versus Brighton
It is fair to say that Marc Cucurella liked what he saw from Sancho in the Brighton victory as the two combined down the left-hand side.
After the game, Sancho shared a post on Instagram to celebrate making his first appearance and setting up his first goal at Stamford Bridge.
In response, Cucurella simply wrote the word “Easy”, which was then followed by two fire emojis.
Before the game, Brighton striker Evan Ferguson chose teammate Kaoru Mitoma when picking between the Japan international and Sancho, but it was the latter who came out on top on Saturday.
How many assists can Jadon Sancho get this season?
Already being on three, the new Chelsea signing has to be aiming for at least 10 in the Premier League.
If Sancho retains his starting spot on the left and Cole Palmer does not lose his coldness in front of goal, which looks extremely unlikely right now, then he should be able to easily reach that figure.
Chelsea supporters will now be hoping to see Sancho score his first goal in blue as Enzo Maresca‘s men look to continue this fine start that they have made to the season.
Next up for them in the Premier League is another home game against Nottingham Forest, which they will be expected to win. However, Chelsea did lose the same fixture last term, so they cannot get complacent.
