Chelsea Football Club have picked up just two points from their last four games and the drop in form has club head coach Enzo Maresca worried.
The Blues lost 2-1 to Atalanta in Italy in the UEFA Champions League; after spanking FC Barcelona 3-0, Chelsea have been on a disappointing run where the team has drawn with Arsenal and AFC Bournemouth and lost 3-1 to Leeds United before losing to Atalanta.
Ghana winger Kamaldeen Sulemana missed the game due to a muscle injury but after seeing his team underperform, Enzo Maresca said to UEFA that,
“First half we were controlling the game. After the goal we conceded first one we lost a bit of the control of the game. We are playing every two days and we probably look like we struggle a bit.”

“We just want to win as soon as possible. We tried to be aggressive, when we conceded 1-1 probably the dynamic of the game changed a bit. I am always worried. Two points in four games is not what we expect and we have to do better.”
