#3 Chelsea need reinforcements

Chelsea was pretty toothless and woeful (as has been the story throughout the season) in front of goal last night. Despite having some clear cut chances, Chelsea had to be content with a De Gea howler to get that one point.

This situation is a huge problem for a club trying to convince its best player (and the best-left winger in the world) to stay at the club. With a transfer ban looming, it is unclear how Chelsea will manage to pull themselves out of this mess.

Last night was a clear case of Eden Hazard trying to do too much on his own because his support cast was unable to assist him properly.

Chelsea has to go into summer with a clear vision. Transfer ban or not, they need to get themselves a world-class striker. New players are needed at the club and the deadwood needs to be removed.

Callum Hudson-Odoi was clearly missed last night as Willian didn't start doing anything until half-time, Higuain was his slow self, and Kante was not fully fit but still did everything he could. All in all, the club needs a revamp. Keeping the current core, reinforcements are needed, be it from the market or the academy.
