Chelsea’s frustrating Premier League season hit another low point after a goalless draw against Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.

While the clean sheet might be a minor consolation, the result extended the Blues’ winless away run in the league to eight matches—a damning statistic that paints a bleak picture of life on the road under Enzo Maresca.

In those eight away games, Chelsea have drawn three and lost five, scoring just three goals in total. That’s not just a slump—it’s a crisis. For a club with the attacking talent of Nicolas Jackson, Cole Palmer, and Pedro Neto, such a return is simply unacceptable.

The last time Chelsea celebrated an away league win was way back on December 8, 2024, in a chaotic 4-3 victory over Tottenham. Since then, it’s been nothing but missed chances, sloppy defending, and dropped points.

Fans had hoped that the arrival of Enzo Maresca would bring a more defined tactical identity and a winning mentality. While there have been flashes of improvement at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea’s performances away from home have been lacking in intensity, creativity, and belief.

It’s a worrying trend that threatens to derail any ambitions of a top-four finish. No team with serious aspirations can afford to be this poor away from home. And while the blame doesn’t rest solely on Maresca’s shoulders, the responsibility certainly does.

Something has to change—and fast. Eight games without an away win, five losses, three goals scored—Chelsea must find a way to travel better if this season is going to end on a fair note.
