LONDON (AP) — Half a billion dollars spent on new signings and Chelsea still looks like a team badly in need of reinforcements.
A toothless Chelsea lost at home to Nottingham Forest 1-0 in the English Premier League on Saturday, a day after closing the summer transfer window by taking its record-breaking spending past the $500 million mark with the addition of Cole Palmer.
Record signing Moises Caicedo was partly at fault for the goal, giving the ball away cheaply before Anthony Elanga tapped in a cross from Taiwo Awoniyi in the 48th minute. Going into the first international break of the season, Pochettino will be under pressure to find answers quickly. As the club showed last season — when it went through three managers — patience can quickly run out at Stamford Bridge.Haaland's second-half hat trick made City's 5-1 win over Fulham look routine as the defending champions extended their perfect start to the season. But it was a disputed VAR decision that turned the game in the hosts' favor just before halftime.
“It’s clear it’s a huge mistake,” Silva said. “Just people that never play football and don’t understand nothing about football can say that player does not have an influence on the goalkeeper’s decision.” “Sonny was outstanding," Postecoglou said. “He led our press, then he has the quality to take his chances. I’m really pleased for him.”Playing in the late kickoff, Ferguson made it a hat trick of hat tricks on the day. It was the first time since 1995 that three different players scored three goals each on the same day in the league.
