Chelsea have been shown a red card five times so far in the Premier League this season, with Cucurella the latest to join the trend.
For a club whose primary colour is blue, Chelsea have been more familiar with the red card this season.
The Blues have had a worrying trend with the red card so far this season, with the likes of Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Malo Gusto, Moises Caicedo, Robert Sanchez, and Trevoh Chalobah all collecting red cards.
Yesterday, Chelsea were reduced to 10 men after Marc Cucurella was penalized for pulling Harry Wilson on a Fulham counterattack and denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity.
The red card became Chelsea’s undoing as they eventually lost the game 2-1 in stoppage time.
Chelsea have now been shown a red card five times in the Premier League, which is two times more than Liverpool, who have received two. They are now on track to break their own PL record of receiving six red cards in the 2007/2008 season.
In all competitions, the Blues have now received 7 red cards, and fans would be hoping the young manager, Liam Rosenoir can sort out this red card issue.
