Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer suspensions add to Chelsea wоes
Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty scored for the Blues in a 2-1 loss at Molineux; Christopher Nkunku’s header in his Premier League debut was the only bright spot on an otherwise forgettable day for the Blues.
If Chelsea had capitalized on more of their many opportunities, the outcome could have been different. In particular, Sterling should have scored when he was through on goal but calmly sent his shot straight at Jose Sa, despite having Palmer and Nicolas Jackson open on his right and in front of the goal.
Due to their yellow cards, Sterling and Palmer will not be able to play in Wednesday’s Premier League match against Palace. Jackson, Malo Gusto, Conor Gallagher, and Conor Gallagher also received yellow cards in the loss.Even if Mauricio Pochettino is already battling with a slew of injuries and is having trouble maintaining consistency and form, it will just make matters worse.
In addition to missing last week’s loss to Wolves, Carney Chukwuemeka, Wesley Fofana, Marc Cucurella, Ben Chilwell, Robert Sanchez, Enzo Fernandez, Trevoh Chalobah, and James will likely sit out next week’s game as well.
The summer signing from Southampton, Romeo Lavia, was on the bench at Molineux and is almost ready to make his Chelsea debut.
According to Pochettino, Chelsea are solely responsible for their most recent loss since they failed to capitalize on several opportunities and played sloppy defense.
We messed up. The onus is on us to take the blame. Our defeat was due to that. “We could have scored,” Pochettino stated. In this way, we hurt ourselves. We were defeated in today’s game.
We are uttеrly let down because, in my opinion, we are worthy of so much more. When you lack the necessary clinical acumen, this competition can be devastating. We made opportunities. For that reason, it is rather disheartening. It was incredibly tough, and we gave up after a few bends.
