5 big-money signings who have disappointed so far this Premier League 2018-19 season

#3 Jorginho (Chelsea)

Chelsea's issues have not helped Jorginho adapt

Another player who hasn't necessarily been as horrible as being portrayed, the Italian international has had a forgettable first season in the Premier League.

Brought in alongside Maurizio Sarri from Napoli, the £57 million regista was brought in with the expectation that he would ease the team's adaptation to the new manager's style - Sarriball.

As the heartbeat of the Napoli side, Jorginho dictated play from deep - shielding the defence, initiating attacks, and dictating the tempo.

Unfortunately, the setup at Chelsea has meant that his deficiencies have become more noticeable than they were in Serie A.

In Naples, the towering presence of Kalidou Koulibaly, Allan's industry, and the pacy attackers and fullbacks meant he was given multiple options every time he had the ball.

At Chelsea, the lack of pace from the fullbacks has meant Jorginho is forced to hold onto the ball for too long, thereby inviting pressure on an already unsteady defence.

The lack of guile in the midfield ahead of him (he had Marek Hamsik and Piotr Zielinski at Napoli) has not helped. Neither Marco Kovacic nor N'Golo Kante is exceptionally skilled or an amazing passer.

Chelsea fans will be hoping the 27-year-old comes good next season.
