'If you want to play again, you need the same hair as mine!' - Enzo Maresca reacts to Robert Sanchez going bald as Chelsea goalkeeper bids to win back starting spot

Premier League

Chelsea

Southampton

<p>Sanchez’s struggles between the sticks have led to growing <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/worst-keeper-history-chelsea-fans-rage-awful-robert-sanchez-error-gabriel-martinelli-opening-goal-arsenal-stamford-bridge/blt1c2c3c6e80d195d4" target="_blank">frustration among Chelsea supporters</a>, with his mistakes contributing to several dropped points throughout the campaign. The pressure has only intensified as the club’s summer signing, Filip Jorgensen,<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/enzo-maresca-confirms-filip-jorgensen-chelsea-s-no1-goalkeeper-blundering-robert-sanchez-recover/blt217df639afc2ace9#cscc91190f181be103" target="_blank"> has now overtaken him</a> in the pecking order.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Jorgensen was handed a starting role in Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over West Ham, and Maresca has since confirmed that he will remain as the team’s primary shot-stopper in the Premier League moving forward. This decision leaves Sanchez facing a steep uphill battle to regain his position in the squad.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Sanchez recently debuted a freshly shaved head in training, prompting Maresca to quip: "I said to him 'if you want to play again, you need the same haircut as mine'!"</p>

WHAT MARESCA SAID

<p>With Jorgensen now firmly installed as the first-choice goalkeeper, Sanchez’s chances of returning to the starting XI may hinge on how the young Danish shot-stopper performs in the coming weeks. Chelsea’s last outing ended in a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Brighton and the Blues will be eager to put their recent setback behind when they make the trip to Aston Villa on Saturday evening.</p>
