The Blues were in the game at 2-2 with 75 minutes on the clock, but conceded three times in the last 15 minutes to lose 5-2.

The defeat leaves Chelsea facing an almost impossible task at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night as they look to overturn a three goal deficit.

Jamie Carragher on Chelsea’s problems

Liam Rosenior’s decision to start Filip Jorgensen backfired as the Dane made an awful error which led to Chelsea going 3-2 down.

Chelsea played well for large parts of the game, but once again were undone by poor errors, and Carragher feels they didn’t deserve to lose 5-2, but only have themselves to blame.

“Chelsea didn’t deserve to lose 5-2, but they’ve only got themselves to blame,” he told CBS Sports Golazo.

“You know what, I’ve been critical of Chelsea for a long time and we’ve had debates, but I’m being deadly serious. They can’t go any further until they sort the goalkeeper situation out.

“The new ownership have come in and spent billions and right now, looking at the team, they’ve got some great players in the team.

“And I think in these early stages that Rosenior has been brilliant. I thought Rosenior tonight, as a manager, and how he set the team up caused PSG real problems.

“They didn’t deserve to lose, as in the way the game was set up and how they played.”

Chelsea centre back issues exposed again

Centre back has been an issue for the Blues all season, and Carragher feels it’s just as a big an issue as the goalkeeping situation.

“But big mistakes cost them, at centre-back and goalkeeper,” he added.
