Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca says the team's over-reliance on Cole Palmer is affecting his form as the England star goes through his driest run since moving to the London club.

Chelsea: Enzo Maresca on collision course over goalkeeper demands - Fans unconvinced by goalkeepers delaying use of the ball and playing short passes - but Maresca insists he will not change

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca spoke up attacker Cole Palmer, despite the fact that he’s not scored since mid-January.

Chelsea's Premier League clash against Southampton could provide Christopher Nkunku with the perfect opportunity to get amongst the goals again.

Enzo Maresca has called for the rest of his Chelsea team to step up and ease the pressure on the ‘struggling’ Cole Palmer who is ‘upset the club are not winning games’. Palmer has not found the back of the net since the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth in January and has gone 13 games without providing an assist.
