6 lessons for Chelsea from the loss against Manchester City

#5 Chelsea need Recruitment

Manchester City v Chelsea - FA Community Shield

Maurizio Sarri is a great coach who worked wonders at his previous clubs but he is not a miracle worker. It is not rocket science to figure out that this current Chelsea side is lacking in quality.

They finished outside the top four and a momentous 30 points behind Manchester City last season. While Antonio Conte's tactics and demeanour was a major reason behind it, the quality of the side is not much better.

So far, Chelsea have only added one new signing to that side. While in other areas, the club might still be able to manage with what they have right now, the forward line needs major reinforcements.

At the moment, Alvaro Morata is not inspiring any confidence as the main man and both Willian and Pedro are emblems of inconsistency.

With talisman Eden Hazard himself not being a prolific goal scorer, one struggles to see where the goals are going to come from in this Chelsea side. The need for reinforcements in attacking position is a must for the club if they want to achieve anything credible this season.
