Chelsea’s 3-1 triumph over Wolves provided a vital morale boost, lifting the team back into the Premier League’s top four. Despite the positive result, the match was not without its controversies, particularly surrounding goalkeeper Robert Sánchez.

 

 

Former Chelsea midfielder Mikel Obi, now an analyst, strongly criticized Sánchez for a first-half mistake that led to Wolves’ equalizer, calling the error “embarrassing” and cautioning that such lapses could jeopardize Chelsea’s top-four hopes if not resolved.

 

The error against Wolves was Sánchez’s fourth direct mistake leading to a goal this season, casting doubts over his dependability in key moments. Obi suggested that Chelsea should either bring in a more reliable backup goalkeeper or recall Djordje Petrovic to increase competition.

 

 

His remarks underscore growing concerns about Sánchez’s consistency as Chelsea pushes for Champions League qualification.

 

While Sánchez has played an important role in Enzo Maresca’s high-possession system, his defensive errors remain a significant obstacle for the team. As the race for the top four intensifies, minimizing costly mistakes will be essential for Chelsea’s success.

 

 

The next few weeks will be critical for Sánchez, as Maresca must decide whether to stick with him or explore alternative options between the posts.
