Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen dropped a big clanger at the end of Saturday's game against Aston Villa to cost the Blues points, but his position in the team is safe
A Chelsea loan star, who was exiled from the first-team by Enzo Maresca, enjoyed a ‘sensationally good’ debut for his new club. On Saturday evening, Chelsea capitulated at Aston Villa, losing 2-1 and dropping to seventh in the Premier League as their poor form continued.
After a run of bad results culminating in two games where they managed one shot on target in 180 minutes, it was clear that a Chelsea shorn of both its viable strikers desperately needed a change, and the team sheet Enzo Maresca dropped for the game against Aston Villa at the weekend delivered just that.
