This Chelsea team will use its full backs to push up and look to overlap whilst Kante staying back and and covering space left from full backs. Up front we have 2 strikers with havertz being more a false 9 striker and dropping into midfield during open play and picking up pockets in the channels but when the team puts out a long ball havertz will use his height to win the ball and either lay off for Werner or back to our supporting midfielders who are waiting to run in behind. With the full backs pushing up this allows our wingers to take on defenders and cut in either looking for pen or shooting or finding a killer pass. Upfront when our attacking players push up this will make a front 5 and an inter changeable front 5 this will mean teams won’t know who to mark. At the back when the fullbacks push up Kante will drop in as third CB and the two centre backs Declan and zouma will cover wide spaces and Kante will cover the centre thus canceling out any suprise counter attacks. With Kante helping out cover counter attacks the front 5 will be free to attack and not need to track back and only the fullbacks will track back making a back 5 almost. The team will be compact when the ball is lost this inviting the other team to play outside and not bring any danger in the centre of the pitch. With Declan rice in the back line this means that he can help play the ball out the back and also initiate long balls to havertz and Werner up front as an out ball if pressured.
