Alternative Chelsea XI (4-5-1) - ShareMyTactics.com
Submitted on
We have a 4-2-3-1 or 4-5-1 formation however you view it. Solid back line of 4 (that would be a first this season) Azpilicueta and Baba holding back on going forward which will allow a 3 when Zouma presses on. I think azpilicueta is null going forward his defensive duties are more needed, as for Baba seen him play once, so can't judge. Ruben can slot back to protect when Zouma presses. Thinking is zouma is good on the ball and can pick a pass out, just look at the pass on Saturday against Newcastle for Hazard. This can also be changed to a 3 in the middle with a 3 at the back if we are pressing for the win etc. Matic holding the fort in the centre, Oscar, Kenedy and Pedro using there defensive minds as well when we don't have the ball to slot into the midfield to win it back ( work the wingers I say) also protecting the defenders. Oscar used as a somewhat second striker. Costa up top and told to keep his mouth shut. Reckon we could do well to beat Sunderland.
