Chelsea surprised everyone by resuming the Premier League with a solid performance because no one expected Chelsea to score their first goal, which was scored by Cole Palmer in the first half. I wasn't expecting Full Ham to find the game difficult, but thanks to Chelsea's strong performance, Full Ham did. To be honest, if Chelsea can continue to play like this, they will win their next match since they have made their fans happy today by moving up to 8th place in the table after being in 10 position more than 4month. Chelsea currently lead Manchester United, and anything that causes Manchester United to lose against Tottenham in a match tomorrow will be significant.
You called that performance solid? Chelsea won the match but there's nothing impressive in their performance and the fact that they had to win with a penalty against Fulham is a prove that there is no improvement. If they continue to play like this especially against top clubs going back to tenth position again is very imminent. Honestly, there is still a lot of work to do in that front line if Chelsea wants a positive result. A good finisher would make use and convert some precious chances missed today. Broja is not suppose to be playing football in the first place talk more of using him as an attacker. No single creativity and impact from that dude. Madueke who was substitute with him to change things seems to make it worse with his selfish attitude. On a two obvious chance to pass and create room for goal or on target but he holds the ball and lose it to opponents. Being in that tenth position is just temporary because other are yet to play their 21st game and even a draw from Manchester united will kick Chelsea out of eighth position.
