Chelsea needs to bounce back fast as they head to play against Aston Villa in what looks like another tough game.
Last time, Chelsea got beaten badly 5-0 by Arsenal, playing really poorly. Now, they’re up against Villa, who are doing well and are close to getting into the top four.
Mauricio Pochettino, the coach, and his players need to pick themselves up after that big loss to Arsenal. They’ve got to keep their slim chances of making it to Europe alive by winning this game.
