Albeit not buying a centre-back and still waiting on the arrival of Eddouard Mendy from Rennes, Chelsea are still leaking defensively and today's game against Liverpool has highlighted the problems.
With Andreas Christensen being sent-off in the first half for stopping a goalscoring opportunity from Sadio Mane, the Senegalese forward was again central to the mistake with him intercepting Kepa Arrizabalaga's wayward pass.
In which looked like a simple pass across the back, Kepa's pass went way too easily to the pressing Mane, who intercepted and slotted the ball into thenet to put Liverpool up 2-0.
