STARTING XI:
Sanchez - 6.5: Made some important saves. Couldn’t do much about the goals, but his distribution was below-par with unnecessary turnovers.
Gusto - 4: Caught out of position a lot of the time with Fulham enjoying space down his side.
Tosin - 6.5: Overall, solid game in terms of defending, but could perhaps have moved the ball a bit quicker.
Colwill - 5.5: Positive passing throughout the game, and claimed an assist for Palmer’s goal. But should have done better for both their goals. His defending overall needs to improve.
Cucurella - 6: Continued to be a threat in the opponent’s box with two good chances.
Fernandez - 6.5: Involved in Chelsea’s attacking play often. Nearly scored a great goal but Leno was equal to it.
Caicedo - 6.5: Strong performance overall; nothing like his usual standards but he made some good tackles and passed the ball well.
Neto - 5.5: Spent a lot of the game working off the ball and defending, but made a good cross at the end. Could have done better for Fulham’s first goal.
Palmer - 7: Brilliant solo goal, a moment of magic. Created a few opportunities with some nice touches in the game but could have scored more.
Sancho - 5: Starting to shoot more now, but too many unnecessary touches. Quiet performance overall.
Jackson - 5.5: Created opportunities and won a fair amount of fouls, but the final third was lacking.
SUBSTITUTES:
Nkunku - N/A Had a chance at the end, but needs to press better. His game lacks energy.
