Cole Palmer – 8
Probably the only Chelsea forward who tried to win it. Scored a beautiful goal to give Chelsea the lead and then saw them squander it. Tried his best to create chances with some nice final third passes and had some shots go wide, but didn’t get enough cooperation from his teammates.
Djordje Petrovic – 6.5
Even though Petrovic conceded four goals, it could’ve been way worse if not for him. He made a few brilliant saves to deny Wolves and was REALLY not helped by how sloppy his defenders were.
Enzo Fernandez – 6.5
The Argentine midfielder did lose the ball leading to the third, but did his job decently apart from that. He moved the ball around well and completed over 70 passes with 91% accuracy, and created two chances too – which were wasted.
Moises Caicedo – 4
Caicedo had a strange game, which were mostly involved in lows. He did get his first assist of the season, setting up Palmer’s goal with a beautiful pass. But then things started going wrong, as Caicedo gave the ball away for the equalizer and kept constantly losing the ball and made zero tackles.
Raheem Sterling – 4
Sterling had an extremely inefficient game and never looked to be a major threat in terms of creativity, failing to create anything. He had a huge scoring chance early in the second half, but blasted the shot over the bar – summing up his poor outing.
Malo Gusto – 3
Gusto had a nightmare against Wolves’ counter-attacks and could not do much to neutralize their threat on the left at all. Won just 2/13 duels, couldn’t make any tackles and then gave away the penalty with a silly foul in the box. Also booked and had to be taken off soon after that.
