Chelsea fans in the lower tier of the Steve Bull Stand jeered when Nicolas Jackson, their leading goalscorer, was substituted with 10 minutes of regulation time left to pay as Mauricio Pochettino’s side fell to their fourth consecutive away defeat in the Premier League. But their problems lie much deeper than the Senegal forward’s profligacy as they were undone by a Wolves squad who showed what team unity looks like.
Goals from Mario Lemina, Wolves’ match-winner against Tottenham, and Matt Doherty enabled Gary O’Neil’s side to extend their unbeaten home run to seven games and draw level on points with the London club.
