Chelsea 1-3 Nottingham Forest result, stats and report

Chelsea dismantled Leeds 6-3 at Stamford Bridge in the Carabao Cup, with Cole Palmer and Danny Welbeck leading a second-half onslaught that turned a tight contest into a thrashing.

Liverpool dominated possession and territory but could not hold on, as Nottingham Forest's Morgan Gibbs-White converted a 70th-minute penalty to earn a point at Anfield. Connor Maguire calls it exactly what it was: unacceptable.

Chelsea came to the Emirates and won it 2-1, with Martin Ødegaard and Kai Havertz doing the damage against an Arsenal side that competed hard but could not back it up with the basics in front of goal.

Tottenham have gone three Premier League games without scoring for the first time since 1974-75, despite spending over £300m this summer. Roberto de Zerbi says his rebuilt squad needs time, but the missed chances at Nottingham Forest suggest the problem is composure, not quality.

Ismaïla Sarr's agent, Diomansy Kamara, has accused clubs of treating African players as commodities after Crystal Palace blocked a Liverpool bid for Sarr and Monaco reneged on a deal that would have sent Lamine Camara to Chelsea. Both players are Senegalese internationals now left in limbo after chaotic deadline-day breakdowns.

Robert Sanchez has been loaned to Como with a buy option just days after a costly error against Fulham cost him his Chelsea starting spot to new signing Emi Martinez. The move sits alongside Chelsea's £125m sale of Enzo Fernandez to Manchester City as Xabi Alonso overhauls the squad on deadline day.

Tottenham have signed Mykhailo Mudryk on a season-long loan with a £75m option to buy, reuniting the Ukrainian winger with Roberto De Zerbi following a doping ban that kept him out of competitive football since November 2024. The deal marks a dramatic value collapse from the €100m Chelsea paid Shakhtar Donetsk in 2023.
