CHELSEA'S STYLE OF PLAY IS STILL NOT CONVINCING ENOUGH!!
Hello football lovers,
Even though we are getting to see just how good Arsenal are together as a team, it is becoming quite clear that Chelsea is still not playing good together as a unit. This is not a good thing when there is "Top 4" hanging in the balance.
After Tuchel was sacked shortly after their encounter with Tottenham, it was simply because the new owners felt that he was not comfortable working hand in-hand with them. But you and I know that no elite manager in world football is sacked over such a minor issue. I believe it was mostly because they still were not playing as good as a team which spent hundreds of millions strengthening the squad over the summer.
The transitioning of Graham Potter into a Tuchel-built club was always going to be a challenge. However, due to the similar playing style in terms of how Brighton and Chelsea were set up, any outside eyes could make a case for them being a good fit. But after a couple of games in, I think more work must be done.
This is not the first time I am seeing Chelsea play so poorly without any proper plan or clear-cut strategy in place. They are mostly the ones struggling to cope with other teams despite usually seen as the big team. They've not won in any of their 4 previous premier league games. This is quite shocking because Potter could not even draw against his former club, succumbing to a 4-1 defeat away from home.
I think it all boils down to the players and their lack of creativity. I know some people don't like to hear it but there is literally no special talent in the Chelsea midfield to create genuine supply those upfront. The likes of Loftus Cheek, Kai Havertz and Jorginho aren't cutting it anymore. If anything, it is usually Mateo Kovacic and Conor Gallagher who look good when playing centrally. The rest need to up their game.
Thank you for your time. See you in the next.

I don't think it comes down to creativity of the players. For most part of it I will put the blame on the manager. When players are playing good we praise the manager so it should be the same when they are not playing good.
If we bring out player by player Chelsea players are better than the arsenal players when it comes to skill but they were outplayed simply because arsenal is better as a group. They press together and attack together. They have one aim and that is to start the game well, outplay and outscore the opponents
