Chelsea scored after 90 seconds of this game, but since then they’ve allowed the home team to dominate, and Zenit are now deservedly ahead.
The Russians aren’t a great team, but we should have learned from the home game at Stamford Bridge that they’ve got more than enough quality to threaten us.
In this case it’s just sloppy defending, sloppy midfield pressure and a disjointed team that looks every part the hastily assembled set of backups that they are.
The question now is whether Thomas Tuchel puts on some of his starters to try and recover things.
