A moment worth a thousand words about Garnacho

In the early morning of October 23, Alejandro Garnacho became a laughing stock on social media during Chelsea's 5-1 victory over Ajax in the Champions League qualifying round.

Garnacho's moment became a laughing stock online.

After Chelsea's big win at Stamford Bridge, all eyes were on the young attacking trio of Estevao, Marc Guiu and Jamie Gittens in explosive form. But amid the joy, Alejandro Garnacho was completely out of sight. The Argentine striker sat on the bench for the entire 90 minutes, not being brought on by coach Enzo Maresca even though the game was already decided.

On social media, the fan community’s reaction was explosive and mostly… teasing. One image that went viral was a “heat map” of Garnacho, with only one hot spot located near the touchline – illustrating that he was only… warming up but not playing on the field. The tweet “Touchline winger” (winger along the touchline warming up) was quickly shared everywhere.

Below the post were a series of humorous comments such as: "He's really out of date". "Chelsea chose 17-19 year old boys instead of him... Free now, Garnacho", "Someone tell Garnacho's brother to post about his new destination".

In fact, Garnacho's form makes it difficult for the coaching staff to put their trust in him. In the previous match against Nottingham Forest, he only played 45 minutes and was substituted after the first half when he had no shots, no decisive passes, and lost the ball 6 times. After 6 appearances, he has no goals or assists.

With other young talents like Estevao and Gittens breaking through, Garnacho's position at Chelsea is more precarious than ever. If he doesn't create a real "heat map" on the pitch, rather than on social media, his future at Stamford Bridge could quickly come to an end.
