Chelsea entertained Manchester United at Stamford Bridge earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Blues made a bright start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 43rd minute when Matheus Cunha found the back of the net. The West London giants went into the half-time break 1-0 down on the scoreline.<\/p>\n

Liam Rosenior\u2019s men failed to mount a comeback in the second half and crashed to a poor 1-0 loss at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a look at how each Chelsea<\/a> player fared during the clash against the Red Devils.<\/p>\n

GK: Robert Sanchez \u2013 5.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sanchez failed to make a save in the game and couldn\u2019t do much about Cunha\u2019s finish.<\/p>\n

RB: Malo Gusto \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He came back to defend when he could and made some inviting chances in the final third.<\/p>\n

CB: Wesley Fofana \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fofana did his fair share of defending, but it was not enough tonight.<\/p>\n

CB: Jorrel Hato \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He cleared his lines when he could and was tidy with his passing.<\/p>\n

LB: Marc Cucurella \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He secured the ball back a few times and engineered some inviting chances in the final third.<\/p>\n

CM: Enzo Fernandez \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fernandez managed to engineer some inviting chances for his teammates, but wasted a glorious chance to score.<\/p>\n

CM: Moises Caicedo \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was a positive influence at both ends of the pitch.<\/p>\n

RW: Estevao \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Estevao made a bright start to the game, but had to go off injured in the 15th minute.<\/p>\n

CAM: Cole Palmer \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He caught the eye at times up top, but never looked like he would score.<\/p>\n

LW: Pedro Neto \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neto worked hard on the left wing, but there was no goal for him.<\/p>\n

ST: Liam Delap \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was unfortunate to hit the post, but was quiet for most of his time on the pitch.<\/p>\n

Substitutes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

LW: Alejandro Garnacho \u2013 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was a constant menace in the final third<\/p>\n

RB: Josh Acheampong \u2013 N\/A<\/strong><\/p>\n

CB: Trevoh Chalobah \u2013 N\/A<\/strong><\/p>\n
