Chelsea's hopes of continuing to win the best ranking in the remaining matches this season are still wide open if they can continue to play like that in every match. Because the way they played the home game when they hosted Manchester United was very good and I really didn't expect Chelsea to play like that last night. However, to surpass Manchester City's ranking, I think it will still be quite difficult for Chelsea even though Chelsea have only played 29 matches this season in the Premier League.
Chelsea is slowly starting to recover, indeed chasing the top four seems impossible for Chelsea because it was too late to recover with the remaining matches in this season to finish in 6-7th place which is a success for Chelsea. Who would have thought that Liverpool was defeated by Man United with a score of 4-3 in the FA Cup and now Man United has lost to Chelsea 4-3.
Chelsea's performance has not yet improved. As you can see only several players who contributed a lot to the club while the rest like did nothing. Chelsea's win over United did not change the situation, as the club remains ranked 10th in PL now and it was not showing if chelsea's performance has recovered from the bottom which is so frustrated to the whole of chelsea fans. If you are watching Chelsea's gameplay, it is still far from good compared when abramovich was still there and it must be noted that boehly changed everything in the club when he came to the chelsea. Defenders must be highly motivated to perform consistently and avoid to make another mistake that could cost the club a lot like when united scored three goals.
Sometimes my attention is drawn to how Caicedo frequently failed to communicate with his teammates in so many games and various times. He was always making blunder pass that puts the goal keeper in the bad situation. he incorrectly passed the ball to Badiashile, who was not ready to receive it instead of send it to the goal keeper which will able to attract the attackers of united to go high line.
Caicedo had passed the ball incorrectly before. He did it frequently, which attracted my interest in finding out if he has any issues with his teammates. Caicedo made numerous mistakes. Some of these mistakes cost chelsea three points.
Many thought that this match would be won by Man United or a draw. However, Erik Tan Hag forgot that he also made a comeback when he coached Ajax against Totteham and at that time was also Pochettino's coach. The previous Ajax goalkeeper was also Onana, and this happened again. In the final minutes, Chelsea made a surprise and were able to reverse the score so they could win. Even though they won, Chelsea cannot easily be complacent because in the next matches they will still have tough matches.
Palmer launched a surprise attack. His shot was deflected and how fortunate Palmer is that the deflected ball went into the net rather than out of from the field. That's insane t see both teams have worked so hard since the beginning of game to win it and mu's chance to go to the UCL has vanished.
Manchester United deserves credit for all of its efforts to defeat Chelsea in an away game. Palmer once again became a hero for Chelsea.
