Since being two points off the top of the Premier League in December, Chelsea’s form has nosedived, winning just one league match. Robert Sanchez’s five errors leading to goals have raised concerns about his reliability, while Nicolas Jackson has failed to score since mid-December. With Conference League midweek games no longer providing rotation opportunities, squad players are unsettled, and constant transfer speculation is adding to the instability. Maresca himself has admitted frustration over the noise surrounding the club this month, calling the situation an "absolute nightmare."
