Chelsea 1-1 Burnley: Red cards and poor home form
BBC • • sports
Key Points:
- Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior faces ongoing challenges inherited from predecessor Enzo Maresca, with the team struggling with discipline, having received a league-high six red cards this season, including Wesley Fofana's recent dismissal.
- Chelsea has dropped 17 points from winning positions at home, the most in the Premier League, partly due to defensive lapses on set-pieces, conceding 11 goals from such situations, which Rosenior acknowledges needs urgent improvement.
- Despite having the youngest squad in the Premier League, Rosenior attributes Chelsea's problems to accountability and player reliability rather than youth, emphasizing his responsibility as head coach to manage performances and discipline.
- The team’s poor disciplinary record is reflected in their position at the bottom of the Fair
