Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has dropped two pretty much certain starting team news updates ahead of the Southampton game tomorrow.
The Blues are off the back of yet another defeat from the weekend as things get even more gloomier for Maresca and his players.
The Blues lost 2-1 against Aston Villa on Saturday evening after being 1-0 up inside the first 20 minutes. I think Chelsea fans would have just expected even at that point, that their side were still going to lose this game, and they did.
Yet another horror goalkeeper error from Chelsea saw Villa grab the winning goal near the end of the game, but we all saw it coming.
Chelsea could not score and were really terrible. Even Cole Palmer was terrible, and he was seen trying to blame others for a bad pass that HE himself made. This just about sums everything up right now.
But now they have another chance to turn things around and get three points back on the board.
Filip Jorgensen makes a good save from Ollie Watkins.
On Tuesday night, Chelsea welcome Southampton to Stamford Bridge, and this is an absolutely winnable game.
Maresca has been speaking to the media today ahead of the game tomorrow, and he dropped two big bits of certain team news.
It sounds like Pedro Neto will start as the 9 again, and Filip Jorgensen will continue in goal despite his mistake against Villa.
In words picked up by SPTC, Maresca said:
“We tried with Pedro days before the game [as a 9], we saw he could do that. It was a positive one. The performance in general was positive.”
And on whether Jorgensen is still the number one, Maresca said:
“If we need to change players every time there is a mistake, we will change many players but no, nothing has changed.”
