Chelsea
October 2025
Chelsea led 3–0 at the break through Andrey Santos, Tyrique George and Estevão, then withstood a Wolves surge as David Møller Wolfe’s brace and Tolu Arokodare cut the gap. Jamie Gittens restored daylight late on. Liam Delap’s second-half red on his return drew heavy criticism from supporters. Chelsea’s first-half control came from early pressure and vertical combinations; game state flipped after Wolves targeted fullback channels and second balls. Discipline cost with Delap’s dismissal amplifying momentum swings. Maresca’s side advanced by trading chances and leaning on late individual quality; defensive compactness and foul management remain priority fixes.
