With the absence of Argentine Enzo Fernández, Chelsea suffered its fourth defeat in ten Premier League matches this Saturday, losing at home to Brentford 2-0.
Mauricio Pochettino’s team from Rosario fell due to goals from Jamaican defender Ethan Pinnock and French striker Bryan Mbeumo, at 13 and 51 minutes into the second half of the match played at Stamford Bridge.
Chesea, without international competition this season, is shipwrecked in the middle of the English tournament table with 12 points, one less than the “Bees”, their current rival.
Enzo Fernández, world champion in Qatar 2022, was not among those called up due to the recent paternity of his second child.
