Chelsea produced a stunning comeback away to Southampton in the English Premier League on Saturday, winning 3-2 after being two goals down.
While the three points were most certainly welcome, fans still had criticism for some performances in the match, particularly defender Gary Cahill’s.
The 32-year-old struggled with the threat of Saints throughout and missed his attempted interception of the cross that led to Southampton’s second goal.
Many fans now believe he is finished at the elite level, with some wanting him shipped out of the club this summer.
They took to twitter to share their thoughts…
Cahill/Alonso costing us another goal. You don’t have to be a tactical genius to realise neither should be playing #CFC— ChelseaFan (@JTChelseaFan01)
Gary Cahill is one of the worst “captains” in any sport, at any level. #CFC

Out of the ten Chelsea games have lost Cahill has played in 8 of them and made mistakes in 5 that led to a goal. Chelsea need a clear out. Cahill /Conte to name but a few #CFC — Nick (@KernowNick2011)
If we sold Gary Cahill back to Bolton he wouldn’t get in their team. He is shit. — Nathan Randall (@nathrandall)
Gary Cahill is utter garbage! Complete filth on a football field! What is he still doing starting games for us???? ????????— Bhut’ Ncamnce (@LonwaboB)
Gary Cahill is absolute crap again, he’s not good enough for us and Southgate must not take him to Russia #SOUCHE— winger57 (@abdaleboy)
Gary Cahill has been absolutely terrible.If you’re wondering why he’s even starting and Rudiger isn’t even in the squad, it’s because Conte’s too big of a bitch to handle valid criticism from a player who spoke up. — mhbofc (@mhbofc) April 14, 2018
Gary Cahill is the saddest excuse for a footballer, and captain, that I’ve seen in many years. Ship him off to China ffs @ChelseaFC— Ethan Bresnay (@ebresnay) April 14, 2018
