Enzo Maresca has something to complain about after this third game of the season. Chelsea led and dominated most of the time but were neutralized by Crystal Palace (1-1), Sunday 1Yes September at Stamford Bridge. AN Blues struggling to find balance, two days after closing a a very busy summer transfer window.
An uneven performance for Chelsea
The west London club have had it all in three Premier League games this season: a loss (2-0 against Manchester City), a big win (6-2 at Wolverhampton) and a draw, approx. last. It’s far from a perfect start for new coach Enzo Maresca and the American owners, who are still hyperactive this summer with twelve incomes and about twenty departure, indeed or through loans.
AN Blues they took the win thanks to their center forward Nicolas Jackson (25th, 1-0) on an assist from Cole Palmer, the fourth man this season for the 22-year-old offensive leader. They were joined by English international striker Eberechi Eze (54th, 1-1), one of the stars of Crystal Palace, who is now 16th in the ranking. Another problem, they lost the French defender Malo Gusto to injury, forced in the second half.
