Chelsea are yet to move on from the title challenge that never was. Carelessness has crept into their game and Enzo Maresca must find a way to ensure a blip does not turn into something more damaging.
This draw with a spirited Crystal Palace must have infuriated him. Chelsea were dominant during the first half, Cole Palmer giving them a deserved lead, but they did not push on and were caught at the end. Jean-Philippe Mateta’s late equaliser was no surprise and leaves Maresca’s team in fourth place, with Newcastle United and Manchester City closing in on them.
