Chelsea captain Reece James has admitted that the Blues’ 1-2 loss to Legia Warsaw will haunt the squad as they continue their push for Champions League qualification.
In a season replete with underachievement, the Warsaw loss represents a new low. Chelsea came into the match sporting a three-goal lead, though Enzo Maresca named a stronger-than-expected squad, likely looking for a convincing, confidence-boosting win. Instead, the hosts fell to an embarassing loss on the night, progressing on aggregate but suffering a damning morale hit in the process.
