Wolves - Chelsea is the most electrifying match I have watched since the season started. From Chelsea’s performance today, I don’t think Enzo Maresca needs a number 9 anymore. Nicolas Jackson was impressive in the game scoring one goal and gave an assist. No doubt, having Victor Osimhen in the team would be a great addition to the squad but right now I don’t think it is a necessity for Chelsea especially with the money involved in that signing.
Despite the huge goal difference, Chelsea were just lucky to won the game but there is nothing impressive with their performance especially in the first half. If you watched the match closely, you will believe with me that Chelsea still need striker (the likes of Osimhen). The game changed in the second half thou but there is serious work to be done in the defense and midfield. The attackers showed a bit of effectiveness but it doesn't change the fact that they have a very bad defense line and it's going to cost them if nothing is done about it. It doesn't make sense celebrating a goal and see opponent scores immediately thereby cutting the celebration short.
Chelsea at very least made progress. I remind you that they lost against Wolves in an away game last season, and they are now winning it. Although they conceded many goals due to their poor defense. But, this is a positive for them. Chelsea needs a good striker. But, we can't be sure Osimhen will easily adapt to their style. I'm not really concerning it as long as we can still score as many as we can, and I'm fine with it. We have no issue on the attacking line after all, but we're so bad when it comes to defense. Then it must be our main concern to have a solution for our defence.
