Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that Chelsea have a goalscoring issue this season.

The Blues succumbed to a disappointing 2-0 loss to Brentford on Saturday, despite creating numerous chances in the first half.

Armando Broja was unavailable to play due to an injury, as did summer signing, Christopher Nkunku.

Nicolas Jackson led the line against the Bees, but the former Villarreal striker couldn’t help his side to victory.

Pochettino has bemoaned his side’s bad luck with injuries.

“It’s obvious at the moment, no. So far, no,” Pochettino said in his post-match reaction.

“Bad luck. [Christopher] Nkunku that proved he can score in big leagues like Bundesliga was injured in the last pre-season game. This type of thing did not help.

“Then we need to recover [Armando] Broja and different circumstances Nicolas Jackson was affected for different reasons, but he’s young and arriving this season and needs time to adapt. Of course, that is obvious, and your analysis and some point, I think we agree.”
