Consistency and stability don’t exist in Blues’ dictionary: Blades cut off Chelsea for a draw

Oli McBurnie netted deep into injury time to grab a point for the Premier League strugglers Sheffield United against inconsistent Chelsea on Sunday night, 2-2.Just three days after their remarkable last-gasp comeback win over Manchester United on Thursday, Chelsea suffered a blow at the EPL bottom side.🚨 Pochettino: “At 52, you identify really quickly whether the team is ready to compete or not”.“Maybe this group is not mature enough to compete in games every three days”.“It’s a new team and we are still learning about their profiles. The process always takes time”. pic.twitter.com/m4WfDBBE5g— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) April 7, 2024 The Blues took an early lead through Thiago Silva before Jayden Bogle beat Djordje Petrovic at his near post to bring the Blades level.Noni Madueke’s excellent finish midway through the second half restored the Blues’ lead, but McBurnie fired in from close range in the 93rd minute to earn a point at Bramall Lane.4 – Oli McBurnie has scored half of the goals Sheffield United have ever scored in the 90th minute or later in Premier League matches (4/8), including all three of their equalisers at this time in games.
