Chelsea forwards remain dropped or goalless
- Published
There are still some causes for concern at Chelsea after the comeback win, with struggling forward Christopher Nkunku left out due to a "technical decision".
In addition, Enzo Maresca said that defender Malo Gusto's muscular injury is "not a good one" and the Frenchman joins defender Wesley Fofana and striker Marc Guiu on the injured list, with winger Mykhailo Mudryk provisionally suspended following a failed drugs test.
After the match, Maresca said his decision not to celebrate with the away end was more about giving his players time in the spotlight.
He said: "I was very happy because it is a nice feeling to win the game at the end but I think it was a moment for the players because they deserve to celebrate with the fans.
"That's the reason I left the pitch immediately. And then when we scored the second one, I celebrated and this was the reason they give me the yellow card, but it was a nice moment between the players and the fans to share that moment. I said many times, the players need to feel that support."
There remains concern about the 16-game goal drought of Cole Palmer and Chelsea's general lack of production from their forward line.
Jadon Sancho's strike against Ipswich last week, ending a run of 21 games without scoring, was the first by a Chelsea forward in the league since 25 February.
Striker Nicolas Jackson has not found the net in 13 matches, while matchwinner Pedro Neto's goal was his first in eight matches.
