Chelsea 2-1 Liverpool FT
We deserve to win the match based on that 2nd half display. It was such a good reaction to Liverpool leveller. Chelsea needed to manage the space while in transition and at the same time had to reduce the pressure on the two centre backs, so it was such a right time for Romeo Lavia to come on.
At least, we are managing to win without Palmer, but how do we cope without Caicedo? Man was such a masterclass tonight. The missing threat has returned with Garnacho on the LW, a target man in the box tonight would've converted few chances.
Estevรฃo was looking dangerous even before the goal. He also created a big chance for Enzo and was making the ball stick in the final third more than Neto. He was partly why Chelsea dominated the last 15 minutes. His impact was superb.
Really, poor off-ball shape from Liverpool led to both goals conceded. A mid-block without compact shape gave huge gap to run into. Even the positional play and movement off the ball have been so terrible. Creating situations where midfielders were pressing so higher up the pitch than the wingers would definitely expose any team.
