The away game against Shakthar was always going to be difficult one,but the way that Chelsea went down might have raised eye brows as to how much capable the team is in defending the crown. Shakthar were dominant in the game and a scoreline of 2-1 didn't mean that it was a close game. It was a game where our midfield was dominated by the opposition midfield and where our main striker again showed his reluctance to shoot from favourable positions. The only good outcome of yesterday's matches were that Nordjaelland held Juventus at home,which means that Chelsea are second in the group despite the loss. The home matches against Nordjaelland and Shakthar now becomes must win games for Chelsea to qualify and we will also need a point at least from Juventus.
The performance has certainly upset the momentum of the side before the face off against Manchester United this weekend. Hopefully, it will not affect the performance in the league.
