Chelsea’s chances for domestic silverware dwindled after the defeat, which left fans questioning why Maresca chose to keep Palmer on the sidelines.

Many saw the League Cup as a potential opportunity for the club to secure a trophy this season.

Supporters argued that Palmer, who has shown his capability to make impactful plays, might have been the solution Chelsea needed to push for a comeback.

Maresca’s single substitution during the game also raised eyebrows.

In response, Maresca defended his approach, stating that the duo of Joao Felix and Christo Nkunku performed well and didn’t warrant a replacement.

When questioned in his post-match press conference, he said: “No, no, no [there was not a reason why he didn’t bring Palmer on]. Simply because I think Joao [Felix] and Christo [Nkunku] were doing very good.”

Despite Maresca’s reasoning, some supporters still believe the coach should have made a bold decision by adding Palmer into the mix to improve Chelsea’s attack.CLICK TO READ THE FULL NEWS HERE▶️▶️
