Chelsea received their fourth red card in just six matches.

The West London club has been continuously losing staff due to suspensions recently.

Chelsea continuously lost people due to red cards.

In the 87th minute of the match against Nottingham at City Ground on the evening of October 18, Malo Gusto made a rough tackle and received a second yellow card from the referee. In the stands, coach Enzo Maresca clearly showed his helplessness, because this was the 4th time in just 6 recent matches in all competitions that Chelsea lost a player due to a red card.

Malo Gusto's actions were unnecessary, as Chelsea were leading by 3 goals at the time. In the stands, "The Blues" fans seemed to be used to seeing their favorite players sent off. The crowd chanted in unison: "Red card again, Ole, Ole".

Previously, Joao Pedro (against Benfica), Trevor Chalobah (against Brighton), Robert Sancez (against MU) were sent off. Of which, Chalobah and Sanchez received direct red cards.

Returning to the match against Nottingham, Chelsea had a difficult first half but played explosively to score 3 goals against the home team in the second half. "The Blues" temporarily rose to 4th place with 14 points, 2 points behind the top of Arsenal but played one more match.

Chelsea face Sunderland in the next round, while Nottingham are on an eighth straight winless run under Ange Postecoglou. Since the 2023/24 season, Postecoglou's teams have conceded 16 goals in the first 10 minutes of the second half, the worst in the Premier League.
