Complacent, error-prone and no plan B: Inside the nine days that ended Chelsea's title charge before it could begin

Daily Mail  

From Premier League title talk to Champions League FOMO. Enzo Maresca's Chelsea have undergone a mini slump with two losses and a draw in nine days Chelsea had been talked up as Premier League contenders prior to their disappointing end to the year It was while waiting for Maresca to enter the press conference room after Chelsea’s latest deficient display that some local Ipswich reporters were chewing over what they had witnessed. There is also growing optimism that at some stage over the 90 minutes Chelsea will gift them a chance, as was the case when Axel Disasi played the erroneous pass in his own defensive third of the pitch which led to Omari Hutchinson scoring against his old club to confirm Ipswich’s first Premier League home win for 8,286 days. Six Ipswich Town players have been at Portman Road since the club were still in League One Ipswich made Chelsea look like what they are - the youngest team in the league with a new head coach Teams have been content to let Chelsea have the ball and manmark Cole Palmer out of games Disasi was a centre back playing at right back, despite Josh Acheampong, Malo Gusto and James being on the substitutes’ bench, as Maresca’s team tweaks did not work this time. Chelsea’s last three victories at Selhurst Park have all required winners in the final seconds, but Maresca could do with a controlled win this time around to bring back the optimism of their season’s first half.
