I believe there are many people that predicted that Nottingham Forest will win Chelsea.
If you have watched Nottingham Forest from the beginning of this season, are you will know that they have improved their squad and pattern of play and in the other hand Chelsea is still struggling to find their way forward amidst their new coach and so many new players. A very good sports bet analyst and a risk-taker will predict that Nottingham Forest will win Chelsea and I am sure that some persons must have done that.
Football is all about teamwork and team bonding. If your team does not bond, individual players will do nothing even with following the coach's instructions.
Nothingham Forest really was lucky, they didn't get the better of the game though but games like this when you don't score early enough against tough sides, you find it problematic to make things better.
Despite Forest threatening first half, The blues dis had a good game. Raheem Sterling was the best player during the first half for blues cutting through the the right wing but didn't get a good goal chance to slot one at the back of the net.
Not a bad game for Chelsea, Palmer should have been paired with Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez, Gallagher runs to and fro on the pitch and adds nothing to the club. He shouldn't have stayed for another season, a loan move should develop him in the right direction for the club, if not he should be sold off completely.
Elanga though got to score but should be unselfish and learn to play as a team. Last week they should have won Manchester United, this week they didn't do better but showed class against Chelsea.
Chelsea players will blend but time is something that it'll sure take them.
I think rather than saying Nottingham were lucky it would be better to say Chelsea still can't be consistent.
Even if in the previous week they were really good and got 3 points with a striking score but in today's match they still have the same problem with the difficulty of finishing for them.
Nottingham did something good by capitalising on the momentum of Chelsea's lack of focus at the start of the second half which allowed Elanga to easily create the winning goal there.
On the other hand, Chelsea's finishing was very poor in this match, they played with full control and they created a lot of opportunities but if you look at the statistics of this match, 21 shots taken by Chelsea are not comparable to their 2 on target so in this case they still have to improve themselves to be better because if it continues like this it will be very natural if there are still a lot of people who still doubt them even though they have won in the previous match,
