Yep - for all the shit Chelsea and United get (rightfully) for underperforming, there's only so much that you can do when you're missing basically an entire team's worth of players.
For a good few weeks, Chelsea and Manchester United could put out an "out XI" that was better than their starting XI...
I wish it were just a good few weeks for Chelsea. :(
Tbf, we're out of it a good bit. Just Lavia, Nkunku, Chilly, Chalobah, Chukwuemeka and Fofana out longterm, although Nkunku is almost back
That's still half of a starting lineup though.
We used to have like 1 or 2 long term problems, and maybe 2 short term injuries.
Now players drop out weekly like it's a reality competition.
3 players isn’t half,
Lavia
Nkunku
Chilwell
Chalobah
Chukwuemeka
Fofana
6 Players is over half a starting XI
