Match Report: Embarrassing Chelsea players surrender in 3-0 crushing by Brighton

Chelsea were beaten 3-0 by Brighton in an un utter humbling at home which is a new low of the whole BlueCo project.

With everything on the line, Chelsea conceded early from a corner to make it clear to everyone that they weren’t going to even try and earn a point today.

The away team were playing well, and racked up a couple of shots to follow their goal. Rob Sanchez chucked in his usual mistake, and was only saved by a Trevoh Chalobah clearance off the line. Chelsea didn’t land a glove on their opponent.

Liam Rosenior’s team were very lucky it was only 1-0 at the break, but their luck didn’t hold in the second period. Brighton got the goals they deserved, and any remaining resolve evaporated from the home team.

Analysis

There is nothing really to analyse from this game. This was a Chelsea team who were quite visibly not attempting to play, shamelessly going on strike to get their manager removed.

The first half was the worst half of football we can remember from a Chelsea team, at least in terms of effort. They didn’t make a tackle, barely were able to string passes together or take even the most speculative of shots.

This is a new low, and we can’t see Rosenior surviving this.
