Chelsea's season got off to a good start Maresca was able to get his squad back in shape quickly, but the new year has not started well for the Blues. Constant injuries have also affected the team's performance, but the 1 win in 7 league games against Wolves is a bit disappointing. This negative period can be attributed to a number of problems. The first cornerstone is the goalkeeper position. Sanchez has been involved in a lot of goals, the Italian coach mentioned this at the press conference. You can take him at his word, because Jorgensen is already in the starting line-up today.The third point is stamina. Chelsea start the games with a very intense intensity, which means that they score an average of 2.9 balls, which is top 4 in the table, while in the second half of the game the performance steadily decreases and the number of balls scored drops back to 2.1, which is only enough to finish in the midfield (9th - 10th).
The fourth point is the coach. Maresca makes the fewest substitutions and often only throws in 1-2 players at the end of games. I guess that's why Felix said yes to Milan.
Fifth point Injuries: Lamia (10/0 defensive midfielder) is out, Mudryk was found to have a banned substance in his system and was banned. The two central defenders Fofana and Badiashile are still not recovered.Chelsea are not made of sausage either.
It will be an interesting game that's for sure, especially as Potter knows the blues and he was very lucky to get Bowen back. For West Ham, the trio of Bowen - Kudus - Soler will be in charge of the attack today, so it's not a bad offence either. Chelsea's xGA (expected goals conceded) is 1.34, which is very high for a top team, so it's not surprising that 91% of these meetings have ended in goals conceded.
