Chelsea will play their third Premier League game since the season resumed following the World Cup as they welcome Manchester City to Stamford Bridge on Thursday evening. Graham Potter's side were unable to follow-up their Boxing Day Bournemouth win, with the Blues slumping to a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
Raheem Sterling opened the scoring early in the first half but saw his goal cancelled out by Serge Aurier with Potter's men offering very little in a slack second half that summed up their season so far.
Conceding to an ex-Tottenham full-back made it worse for the fans and being penned in by a true relegation candidate offered a stark message to the owners, who are looking to invest heavily in the transfer market.
