🚨 Chelsea thrashed by Nottingham, four players go off injured! Chelsea are draining the cup to the dregs. On Monday early evening, the Blues added another humiliation to their season: Nottingham Forest (16th) won 3-1 at Stamford Bridge.
Interim coach Callum McFarlane inherited a decimated, unbalanced and demotivated squad. The Blues are now ninth in the Premier League table: they will not take part in next season’s Champions League. The Londoners’ record in the PL since March 21 has been abysmal: six straight defeats and just one goal scored!
Against Nottingham, Chelsea conceded the opener in the 2nd minute before quickly collapsing. On the second goal, France international Malo Gusto was at fault after pulling a shirt and giving away a penalty. After just 15 minutes, Forest were already 2-0 up!
Also worth noting was the long stoppage before half-time: Jesse Derry (18), making his Premier League debut, was carried off on a stretcher and given oxygen after a collision with Zach Abbott (concussion protocol). When play resumed, Cole Palmer missed the penalty that could have cut the deficit. After the hour mark, Robert Sánchez also went off after a collision with Morgan Gibbs-White.
