A mixture of their inexperience to see games when they are forward and controlled by the pace of play, their lack of ability to break the defense units with low blocks and bad volumes from their wide men contributed to this bad part of the form. Something has to change with Aston Villa next …
Jadon Sancho’s Chelsea trouble
The pairing of wings in Chelsea has been a problem in recent weeks, as the lack of results from wide areas has left like Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson with a terrible attacking work load.
Noni Madueka has cut Seven goals in the Premier Leaguebut Pedro Net has managed only two goals of the league And Jadon Sancho has only I managed the two.
In addition to Madueke, Net and Sancho were much less direct with their actions on the field, often turning to retain possession, take fewer shots in games and seek creation for others, not playing the game with the neck itself.
Sancho did so against Tottenham, returning Chelsea to the game after he left 2-0 down, but in recent weeks the Sanch’s shape did not help Maresca’s side, and could require a change in this position to add something different.
But Sancho is not the only man to be rejected, because there is another Chelsea star who has been in poor form in recent weeks.
Chelsea’s star that needs to be discarded now
Levi Colwill has This season left 23 appearances for bluesThey all come to the Premier League, providing one help, contributing to four clean leaves and a total of 2,070 minutes.
The 21-year-old defender was a clear favorite of Maresca, but ever since Wesley Fofana was injured, Colwill has been fighting more in the defensive line.
Of the Fofan injury, Colwill joined Benoit Badiashile, Tosin Adarabioyo, Josh Acheampong, Axel Disasi and Trevo Chalobah (Returning with a Loan in January).
The lack of consistency did not help Blues’s background, as they fought to find the same balance provided to them with Colwill and Fofan.
Sky Sports ‘Dougie Critchley described Colwill’s mistake against Brighton as’unforgivable“For their second goal, looking for a foul, not clinging to a position to defend a permanent attack and then admitted. And this is not the only mistake of a young defender in recent weeks, after it also gave their goal West Ham to go 1-. a few weeks ago.
Although Colwill’s talent is clear and the future of Chelsea defense lines has absolutely, after several bad performances, the blues could make him get him out of shooting, bringing adarabioyo, who adds some experience and watching the storm.
