Hafter returning Chelsea is the best. Or, at least, it’s very close to that version. Five wins in a row for the ‘blues’ and an eight game unbeaten run that cements them in second place in the Premier League. This time after a historic comeback against Tottenham (2-0 to the final 3-4) with the wonderful Cole Palmer. They are four goals behind Liverpool (with one game less in the ‘Pool’) and they allow themselves to dream with enzo Maresca.
The first half in the London derby made no sense. The center of the field disappeared on both teams and it was an exchange of transfers that left a very entertaining story for the neutral spectators. And if they whent 2-1 at half-time on the scoreboard… it was a coincidence.
Tottenham were already leading 2-0 in the 10th minute. Two slips by Cucurella (who changed his boots) ended up leading to goals from Solanke and Kulusevski. Chelsea were knocked out and Udogie made it 3-0 seconds later.but then ‘Cuti’ Romero got injured, the game was stopped and the Maresca team came forward to play.
Jadon Sancho invented a great goal to open the duel and Palmer, moments later, forgave the tie. The game was broken, Son starred on the counter in a shot that narrowly missed and, in the othre area, Forster avoided making it 2-2 with an impressive double save. First with a big hand for Palmer, then a leg down against Neto.
Forster salvo before palmer.
But Tottenham also had offensive potential. Solanke, ex-Chelsea, grabbed his double and Sarr hit a header against the crossbar. The duel was crazy. Ther was no other part.
Chelsea is the best
This Chelsea, however, is the ’other’ Chelsea. Maresca has done a great job in a few months and faced a young team with great potential. The second half started with more saves from Forster.He was the hero. Until he had to give in.
The turning point was 2-2,beyond ‘Cuti’s injury. Bissouma came late and beat Moises Caicedo. In the 60th minute, Chelsea could have tied with a penalty.And Palmer did not fail.

But the derby did not end there. Good Son of the counter-attack… and Enzo Fernández, no. Chelsea came back in the 73rd minute after the Argentine caught a volley from the front. Palmer’s previous play, excellent. Six goals have been scored in the last five games for the English. It is indeed ‘excellent’.
and yet the final shot remained for the former City player. Another penalty, another goal. This one Panenka.12 shots,12 goals. he surpasses the effectiveness of Yaya Touré. No one in the history of the Premier has done it better than him. Tottenham had a last burst of character and pride, and got the 3-4 with Son in the 96th minute It came too late. Chelsea won the derby after a brutal comeback and are four behind Liverpool. They are back.
