Enzo Maresca is in unchartered territory at the moment after losing back-to-back matches for the first time as Chelsea head coach.
However, they are most certainly in a battle to finish in the top four in the Premier League table this season. The next fight for Chelsea is a clash with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon.
If they are to get a positive result in south London, the Blues are going to have to drastically improve from their last two performances. With that said, Bobby Vincent takes a look at how Chelsea have to improve…
Faltering attack
In the last three matches against Everton, Fulham and Ipswich, Chelsea have only scored one goal. Bar Cole Palmer, who scored against Fulham and hit the woodwork twice in the Ipswich defeat, none of the Blues’ front-line has really showed up.
Right-back problem
Axel Disasi was used at right-back from the start against Ipswich and put in a bit of a disastrous performance in the loss at Portman Road. It is clear to all Chelsea fans that the Frenchman cannot continue to play at right-back but the form of his fellow countryman Malo Gusto has not been great either.
.Discipline issue
Chelsea have the joint-most yellow cards in the Premier League this season with 56 bookings since the start of the campaign. On Monday evening, there were four yellows handed out to Blues players and it could have been more.
