KIERAN GILL AT STAMFORD BRIDGE:
Long before
Aston Villa realised they were also allowed to attack‚
Chelsea had so many chances to kill this contest‚ but therein lied the problem: they lack killers.
Joao Pedro led the line for
Enzo Maresca and scored somewhat flukily after
Reece James' brilliant cross from a corner
nicked his backside. Yet you watch
Chelsea‚ you see them create chances galore‚ and rarely do you get that 'they could score here' sense of anticipation in your stomach. It is all so wasteful.
Alejandro Garnacho might get himself into a good position‚ only to then balloon the ball into the Shed End.
Pedro Neto might skip by his man‚ only to then find nobody with his cross.
Chelsea have attackers galore who can
nick a goal here and there‚ from
Garnacho to
Neto to Jamie Gittens to
Enzo Fernandez‚ but are craving that ultra clinical finisher.
