Chelsea suffered a disappointing defeat at Stamford Bridge, with Aston Villa emerging victorious thanks to Ollie Watkins' lone goal. While every loss is a collective effort, there were three players who failed to shine for Mauricio Pochettino's side, contributing to Chelsea's lackluster performance.
1. Malo Gusto: Gusto's day turned from bad to worse when he received a red card, leaving Chelsea with only 10 men on the field. His dismissal handed Aston Villa a significant advantage, and the team struggled to cope with the numerical disadvantage. It was a moment that changed the course of the match, and Gusto will likely face scrutiny for his ill-timed challenge.
2. Nicolas Jackson: Nicolas Jackson's struggles continued as he failed to make a significant impact in the match.

3. Mykhailo Mudryk: Mykhailo Mudryk, deployed as a winger, failed to fulfill his role effectively. He struggled to provide the necessary width and creativity in attack, leaving Chelsea's front line devoid of the spark it needed. Mudryk's inability to make a meaningful contribution in the final third was a missed opportunity for Chelsea.
The trio of Gusto, Jackson, and Mudryk had a forgettable outing, and their subpar performances played a part in Chelsea's defeat. As Mauricio Pochettino assesses this disappointing result, he will undoubtedly need to address these issues and work on improving the team's overall performance in the matches to come.
