Chelsea’s Liam Delap: Suspended or Secret Weapon This Weekend? Premier League Update Unveiled!
Chelsea kept Wolverhampton Wanderers at arm’s length after taking a 3-0 lead in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
The fourth round tie at Molineux ended in a 4-3 win for Chelsea after the home team had pulled two goals back in the second half. Both teams scored late goals but the Blues’ quarter-final place was sullied by Liam Delap’s red card.
The England Under-21 striker hadn’t played since the end of August, when he pulled up with a hamstring injury in Chelsea’s controversial win over Fulham.
Is Chelsea’s Liam Delap available this weekend?
Delap was dismissed less than half an hour into his return from injury for the Blues and was fortunate to last as long as he did.
After twice flooring Wolves defender Yerson Mosquera in an unnecessary altercation on the edge of the opposition penalty area, the 22-year-old was extremely lucky that referee Thomas Bramall opted for a second yellow in the aftermath of his elbow on Emmanuel Agbadou.
