Chelsea played more than half of the game with one man down, yet they still prevailed 3-2 at Stamford Bridge because to their tenacity and fortitude.
Although Mauricio Pochettino would be happy to win three points against challenging opponents, there were several concerning aspects of the game. Express Sport walks you through four important areas of discussion here.
The trio makes a difference.
The Blues had a great chance to defeat Brighton, but only because of three outstanding players’ crucial contributions did they manage to escape defeat. Ever since arriving at Stamford Bridge, Enzo Fernandez has been nothing short of a great act. His two Premier League goals were complemented by another deft passing effort that kept his team in control.
Levi Colwill played a strong defensive game against the team he was on loan from last season, and he finished the afternoon with a header of his own.
Finally, despite all of his shortcomings, Mykhaylo Mudryk displayed a few moments of unique brilliance. Even while his performance was far from flawless, his lightning-fast reflexes resulted in the penalty that gave Chelsea a 3-1 lead and put them back in control.

A glaring issue appears
Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, now has a serious problem with discipline. After Reece James was sent out against Newcastle United last weekend, the Blues’ skipper was sent off for the second week in a row.
This time, Blues supporters were infuriated by Conor Gallagher’s careless challenge on Billy Gilmour, which resulted in his second yellow card. Gallagher was wearing an armband.
The season has seen Gallagher shine, but he is now barred for Wednesday’s trip to Manchester United. Additionally, Chelsea’s total of nearly 50 bookings this season is the highest in the Premier League.
Is Poch overlooking an opportunity?
Even if Chelsea has recovered from a particularly goal-starved few months, it’s obvious that Pochettino could get much more out of his team if they took use of their early advantage.
Mudryk formed a front-three with fellow speedsters Nicolas Jackson and Raheem Sterling, and their quickness ought to have caused havoc and mayhem against Brighton, a team that was eager to play and unwilling to give up.
However, on many an occasion, one of the three would make a strong run off the final defender’s shoulder, only to have it disregarded in lieu of a sideways pass.

The magical moment of the Brighton gem
Although the Seagulls did not get the desired outcome, 18-year-old Facundo Buonanotte’s ideal moment at Stamford Bridge cannot be denied.
With ten men against Brighton, his goal appeared destined to put Brighton back in the game as he cut in on his left foot and fired a clean strike into the bottom corner. Joao Pedro scored a late header to narrow the lead to one, but Chelsea held on to win all three points and move up to 10th place in the Premier League standings. However, it was not to be.
