Maresca decision costs Chelsea as Fulham defeat sends title reminderChelsea suffered a 2-1 defeat to Fulham on Boxing Day, marking their third Premier League loss of the season. Cole Palmer’s early goal was canceled out by Harry Wilson, and Rodrigo Muniz’s late strike sealed the victory for the Cottagers. Manager Enzo Maresca’s decision not to make more substitutions despite a struggling attacking line was criticized, as was the team’s lack of game management. The result serves as a reminder that Chelsea may not be ready to compete for the Premier League title this season.
