Gary Neville<\/a> says he has ‘got some sympathy’ for Robert Sanchez<\/a> and believes Enzo Maresca should have pulled the Chelsea<\/a> goalkeeper out of the firing line earlier in the season.<\/p>\n

Sanchez held off competition from Djordje Petrovic<\/a> to nail down his spot as Chelsea’s number one at the start of the campaign following Maresca’s arrival as head coach.<\/p>\n

But the 27-year-old has appeared far from comfortable between the sticks, making a number of costly mistakes in recent months, with the Blues at risk of dropping out of the Premier League top four.<\/p>\n

In the wake of Sanchez’s less-than-convincing display Chelsea’s 3-1 defeat to Manchester City, Maresca finally decided to drop the error-prone Spaniard from his starting XI.<\/p>\n

Summer signing Filip Jorgensen was instead given the nod against West Ham<\/a> and continues his run in the side this evening, with Maresca’s men looking to exact revenge on Brighton after their FA Cup defeat to the Seagulls just a week earlier<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Asked whether Jorgensen could be the answer for Chelsea, ex-Manchester United and England defender Neville said on Sky Sports: ‘It’s too early to say maybe and it’s very early in his career as well.<\/p>\n

‘I think when you get into that position as a manager when you’re starting to question your goalkeeper… it’s the most difficult position in football, I believe.<\/p>\n

‘I don’t believe there is any tougher role on the pitch and the minute you make a mistake the pressure comes on you.<\/p>\n

‘As a young goalkeeper, at a big club like Chelsea, it’s tough. I’ve got some sympathy for Sanchez and I hope that Jorgensen does well.<\/p>\n

‘On Sanchez, I thought he was left it for too long in the end. I thought he could have been just brought out earlier.<\/p>\n

‘It’s now a case where it’s difficult to get him back in because that confidence breaks as a goalkeeper. How do you build it back up? It can take along time.’<\/p>\n
