Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, has described Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest as shocking.

The former Premier League star said this while highlighting a major problem for Chelsea.

Pochettino’s Blues were beaten 1-0 by Nottingham Forest at home on Saturday.

Anthony Elanga scored the only goal as Forest ran away 1-0 winners at Stamford Bridge.

Merson watched the game for Sky Sports and said, “It happened again today, they never looked like scoring a goal.

“It’s disappointing. I think they’ll be alright away from home, when teams have a go, because of Nicolas Jackson and Raheem Sterling’s pace.

“This has been happening for a couple of years now, trying to break teams down.

“But for the next 30-50 minutes, it was slow, the fans were getting frustrated. Mauricio Pochettino’s job is to get this team up and really pressing.”
