Epl: Why Chelsea Lost 3-0 To Brighton Maresca

Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, has admitted it was difficult for his team to play without a proper number nine.

With Nicolas Jackson out with a hamstring injury for up to eight weeks, Maresca was forced to play Christopher Nkunku upfront, as they lost 3-0 to Brighton on Friday night.

The Blues failed to record a shot on target for the entire duration of the game, as they suffered back-to-back losses at the Amex.

It is difficult when you dont have a proper number nine.

So you always have to find a different solution. In the last third we struggled doing things that until a week or two ago we were doing well.
