In the 20th round of the Premier League, Chelsea were drawn by Brighton in the last minute, and could only swallow the bitter fruit of 1-1, already 8 points behind Manchester City, and at the beginning of December, they were still the leaders of the Premier League!
Chelsea beat Watford 2-1 away from home in February, when they finished 14 rounds and achieved an impressive record of 10 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, topping the Premier League table with 33 points, leading Manchester City by 1 point and Liverpool by 2 points.
After that, however, the Blues suddenly turned off the ignition and repeatedly overturned. On 4 December, they were defeated by West Ham 2-3 away from home and lost the London derby. Facing Leeds United at home on 11 December, although the 3-2 win was also very thrilling, it was not until the 94th minute that Jorginho scored on penalties.
On 17 December, Chelsea were forced to draw 1-1 at home by Everton, and two days later, they exchanged 0-0 with Wolves on the road, suffering two consecutive draws. On the 27th, they defeated Aston Villa 3-1 away from home, ending the decline, who expected that after 3 days, they were tragically drawn by Brighton and lost 3 points!
As a result, in the six Premier League games in December, Chelsea only achieved 2 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, and only scored 9 points out of 18 points, losing 9 points! Manchester City won all, so after 20 rounds of fighting, the Blues have 12 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses and 42 points, and the Blue Moon has 16 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses and 50 points, from the top to the second, and has fallen behind by as many as 8 points!
It has to be said that the reason for Chelsea's overturning, including the epidemic and injuries, but the lack of goals in the front line and the defense line are no longer solid, which really makes their performance fluctuate. Although it is just halfway through the season, it is still too early to say, but if you want to fight back to win the championship, Tuchel's team is really difficult!
