Golden Glove race go down the wire

The Premier League Golden Glove is an award given to the keeper with the most clean sheet in the Premier League.
Ederson moved level with Alisson in the race for the Premier League Golden Glove after clean sheet in the 1-0 victory over Leicester City.
The Manchester City goalkeeper has 20 clean sheets this season, level with his Liverpool rival, who was unable to add to his tally of 20 in the 3-2 win at Newcastle United on Saturday night.
Thanks to Ederson's shutout against Leicester, it is only the second Premier League season where more than one goalkeeper has kept 20 clean sheets.
The previous occasion was 10 years ago, when Edwin van der Sar had 21 clean sheets for Manchester United and Pepe Reina kept 20 for Liverpool.
On the final day of the season, 12 May, Man City will travel to Brighton & Hove Albion, while Liverpool will host Wolverhampton Wanderers.
If Ederson and Alisson end the season with the same number of clean sheets, the award, which is presented by Cadbury, will be shared by the two Brazilians.

However, a few options come to mind - Conte's future, the formation change, rumours of players likely departure and/or new arrivals struggle to adapt to life in the English premier league. Could this be why numerous players are constantly being linked to the club? Morata; the team's main point man is misfiring; Hazard's contract extension talks ongoing and Bakayoko is another player struggling with confidence in the midfield... where is the Chelsea Football Club we are accustomed to? The midfield o...
