Problems building for Poch as fans again boo injury-hit side after toothless display

Bournemouth 0

Chelsea 0 

Mauricio Pochettino’s side were booed off for a second consecutive match after their difficult start to the season continued with a goalless draw at Bournemouth yesterday. Vice-captain Ben Chilwell went over to apologise to supporters and quell growing anger in the away end.

Huge chances were squandered by Nicolas Jackson, Conor Gallagher and Levi Colwill, while Raheem Sterling hit the bar with an excellent free-kick in the second half. Chelsea could have won it, but ultimately did not control the match and were just as disappointing as they were unlucky

Mykhailo Mudryk was lively on the ball, but his erratic movement and positional play unsettled Chelsea on his first start of the season.

Jackson is their main No9, but he appears to be losing confidence game by game, having scored just once in six matches, while Sterling looks overburdened around such young attackers.
