Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel admits he struggled with his depleted squad against Everton on Thursday.
The Blues were without four players before kick-off after they returned positive COVID-19 tests.
Tuchel said: "We played with Saul as our number nine and we went with Trevoh because maybe we score a goal from a set-piece, because he's very strong at set-pieces. It was the chance we had so we are taking the decisions and then making the best out of the situation.
"I'm concerned that we have too many players out, I think today six or seven players out. This is one of the key problems in the moment. You know about the situation in the midfield since eight weeks and again all our strikers are out, we had this situation just like four weeks ago when Romelu and Kai were both injured for weeks. So we struggle obviously with this and at the same point we always focus on the solution and on the guys we have on the pitch. We were strong enough to win the game today.
"Again, I'm not so sure right now why we get punished like this. I see teams concede much more chances than we do, I see teams concede much more half-chances than we do. We conceded absolutely nothing and still it's a draw. I think we have a huge possibility to sit here with a 3-0 for us and it would be a fair result, but I cannot change it anymore and that's why we need to find the balance in being honest and critical with each other, but to accept sometimes that we get punished for not a lot."
