Given the wages of todays footballers, its fair to assume many wouldnt know how to change a car tire. Break down on the motorway? Most would probably just call roadside assistance.
But thanks to Chelsea's partnership with official tire sponsor Linglong Tire, that theory was put to the test with hilarious results.
In a light-hearted video challenge, Chelsea stars Tosin Adarabioyo, Noni Madueke, and Pedro Neto dressed head-to-toe in royal blue mechanic jumpsuits were tasked with changing a hatchback tire, completely unassisted.
First up was Adarabioyo, who handled the challenge surprisingly well, completing the swap in just over two minutes.
Then came Madueke, whose experience was far less smooth. Brother, what the hell? he exclaimed in confusion. Which way is it meant to go in?
When Adarabioyo pointed out that Madueke hadnt even fitted the tire properly, the winger was promptly disqualified much to the amusement of his teammates. Laughing it off, Madueke joked: Forget it, bro. Am I a football player or a tire specialist?
Last up was Neto, who showed no signs of pressure and breezed through the task in just 1 minute and 32 seconds the fastest of the bunch.
Adarabioyo wasnt surprised by the result either. When asked beforehand who he thought would win, he quipped: Pedros really low down to the tire already, so he doesnt need to bend down.
Judging by the jokes and the jack mishaps, poor Pedro probably gets extremely tyred of hearing that.
