Maresca Says Chelsea Struggled Without a Striker in Brighton Loss
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has admitted that playing without a natural striker has been a tough challenge for his team.
With Nicolas Jackson sidelined for up to eight weeks due to a hamstring injury, Maresca had no choice but to start Christopher Nkunku as the lone forward.
However, Chelsea struggled in attack and failed to register a single shot on target as they suffered a 3-0 defeat to Brighton on Friday night.
“It’s not easy when you don’t have a proper number nine,” Maresca said. “You have to find alternative solutions. In the final third, we struggled to do things we were doing well just a week or two ago.
This is the toughest period since I arrived, but we’re still in the fight and need to finish strong.”
