After going a goal ahead, Chelsea ended up losing 3-1 to the reigning champions as they end the day in sixth place.

Enzo Maresca has said Chelsea continue to "trust" error-prone goalkeeper Robert Sánchez after his latest mistake in Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Manchester City.

Enzo Maresca says Robert Sanchez will remain Chelsea’s No1 for the remainder of the season — but is “far, far, far” from playing at the level he wants from his goalkeeper. The Spaniard was the Blues’ first choice goalkeeper last season after his transfer from Brighton and has remained the go-to man in goal this season.

Enzo Maresca admits Chelsea’s first-choice goalkeeper Robert Sanchez still has a lot of improving to do and believes he needs to cope better with criticism from the club’s fans. Sanchez was jeered by Chelsea supporters every time he caught the ball in the second half of their 3-1 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night.

Enzo Maresca offered his backing to Robert Sanchez after Chelsea's defeat at Man City but gave no guarantees that the goalkeeper will keep his place.
