Chelsea is truly a confuse club because how would they be relying on such a defenders and be expecting to challenge for silverware?
During the January transfer window i expected them to strengthen their backline aggressively, but they were just reluctant to do so, then on the final day, they went and bring sarr m. back from loan knowing fully well that he lack maturity and experience.
As you have already said, they were just lucky not to lose this game because their defense was like an express road the moment they went a man down.
Situation is annoying to fans of Chelsea as they expect to win cups but their performance is poor in terms of defense, having no strong leader and right plan. Although they have one of worst defending histories in league, they spent the money on midfielders in January other than to get top defender, which shows that they are more interested in future value of player than winning this season. Instead of tested expert, who has been there and done it, bringing back Malang Sarr is sign of lack of experience as team needs steady and calm leader to bring order to backline instead of young players who are still learning. This was clear in their final match where defense turned into open road to opponent upon getting red card where numbers showed that they had totally lost shape and it is through help of lucky goalkeeping that they had not completely lost. Chelsea at end cannot afford to depend on only luck to keep them safe and unless huge change is done with their defense, they will never be able to win anything.During the January transfer window i expected them to strengthen their backline aggressively, but they were just reluctant to do so, then on the final day, they went and bring sarr m. back from loan knowing fully well that he lack maturity and experience.
