The most curious thing..
Everton was never going to be a step up. I was astonished they bought him, given the number of chances he missed for us. Far too wasteful at this level, and it only demonstrated how desperate Everton were (and still are). Relegation is an increasing possibility and would be financially ruinious for them given the cost of the Bramley Dock stadium build.

I was one of those who really wanted him to stay at the end of his time with us. He scored some important goals and always gave his best.

Yet, as it turns out with the benefit of hindsight, yes, it was absolutely right to sell Neal Maupay. Sorry Neal, hope you rediscover some form at Brentford. (except against us of course)

At the time I couldn’t envisage us having a team that contained Ferguson, Fati, Enciso, Pedro, Mitoma as well as Solly March 2.0.

Anyone know why he was sitting with Nathan Jones at the Brentford game yesterday?
Have we recruited him to do some scouting for us? We play Bournemouth the match after next, so could be there for us. I assume we’re still on friendly terms with him.

I never rated Maupay as a striker, for us, at the time. But always seemed like a decent Monsieur

Sutton hmmmm . . . . Was in a Norwich team that beat Bayern Munich . . . . . Cashed in and helped Shearer for a year in the old fashioned equivalent of Chelsea . . . Other than that. . .waste of oxygen.

I think the point was, Maupay could have just shot at the empty net.
He could, but I think he was happy to try and walk it into the empty net to get in the faces of the Chelsea fans behind the goal. He is the professional WUM after all.

If he'd shot from 30 yards.

lets not go there. . . . It was a sweet sweet goal, he did his job, well, Chelsea lost. All is good.

Or possibly he didn’t want to score (embarrass) against a former team mate and possibly a good friend of his.
Or expecting Sanchez would take him down and be given a red card to save his good friend playing in front of the entitled twats for a couple of games...
