Things are far from perfect at Chelsea at the moment.
The Blues' draw with Brighton on Tuesday night means that they are still without a Premier League win since Boxing Day, and have recorded five draws in their last seven matches in the division.
Thomas Tuchel's side didn't deserve anything more against the Seagulls and far large stretches of the match, Chelsea once again struggled to find attacking fluency as Brighton defended well with numbers.
While Graham Potter's team provided a staunch defence, the Blues' lack of potency was as much at fault. Romelu Lukaku only emerged with 18 touches from his 80 minutes on the pitch.
It was perhaps no surprise that Lukaku and Hakim Ziyech were in deep discussion as the sides left the pitch at half-time.
The Belgian's frustration had been clear in the opening period with his exasperation evident when one pass from the Moroccan was played into his feet rather than the path he was running into.
Lukaku looked to be making this point as the duo headed down the tunnel, with the discussion proving animated and Ziyech visibly covering his mouth during the conversation.
