Chelsea Have Bad Memories whaen They Conceded 13 Goals in the First Six Premier League Matches

DBasia.news –  Chelsea lost 1-2 to Liverpool in Week six of the Premier League. The two goals conceded made Frank Lampard’s team’s defense record worse and matched the darkest record last season.

Chelsea went to Stamford Bridge with one wish: To win. Because, in the previous match, the Blues defeated Valencia in the Champions League.

However, Chelsea failed to take advantage of several opportunities when challenging Liverpool. Of the 13 opportunities created, only two led to the goal.

Liverpool who appeared effective could even lead 0-2 in the first round. Two goals from the Reds created by Trent Alexandre-Arnold (14′) and Roberto Firmino (30′).

Chelsea continued to strive to pursue victory finally able to score a goal through N’Golo Kante in the 71st minute. Unfortunately, the goal was the last in the game. The Blues lost 1-2.

Based on Opta Joe’s record, Chelsea have conceded 13 goals in the first six Premier League matches 2019-2020. This amount is identical to conceding Chelsea in the six games beginning in the 1978-1979 season. 

One thing that needs to be noted, at that time, Chelsea had to go down caste after only earned 20 points in 42 matches. From that period, Manchester City scored the most goals against Chelsea with a score of four goals.

In the end, Chelsea’s goal in the 1978-1979 season, 92 times torn. Meanwhile, the London club was only able to package 44 goals.

Indeed, Chelsea is not in a dark period. Because, last season, Olivier Giroud and his friends won the Europa League title after defeating Arsenal in the final match.

One that is blamed as the ringleader of Chelsea’s deteriorating performance is the ban on registering new players. Not surprisingly, Frank Lampard used more team dropouts from the academy. 

Next, Chelsea will face Grimsby Town in the English League Cup third round match on Thursday (9/26). After that, Chelsea will return to compete in the Premier League by entertaining Brighton (28/9).
