The Argentine fluffed his clearance, which fell into the path of Oliver Skipp, who cannoned a shot in off the underside of the crossbar.
However, fans have been quick to dismiss the woeful stat.
One said on Twitter: “He’s alone in the midfield playing with a mediocre manager who doesn’t know how to use him and not in his natural position but you must run your agenda.”
On the other hand, rival fans have been less forgiving.
A Manchester United fan declared: “When I said that Fred is better than this guy Chelsea fans cooked me.”
