Scrappy Underdogs Chelsea Show Heart, But Can't Beat Bournemouth
15th place Chelsea almost scored an upset against fellow lower table side Bournemouth today, but they couldn’t handle Glenn Murray on this corner. They are a mere three points out of the relegation zone, but this ramshackle band of underdogs looks like they’ll be able to stay up and ensure safety. What an inspirational story that would be!
Their next fixture is against league leaders Leicester City, a team with more than twice as many points as Chelsea. Can fragile, scrappy Chelsea play up to the lofty standards of a big club like Leicester?
Probably not.
