Agreed ๐ Lacroixโs recovery pace will be important, but communication and positioning matter just as much. We canโt keep allowing opponents to isolate our defenders in 1v1 situations. If we stay compact and protect the midfield properly, weโll make his job easier. Hopefully, he delivers today.
๐จ๐ต Chelsea fans are desperate to see Marco Palestra make his first competitive start! ๐๐
The Italian is now fully fit after missing the opening weeks of the season through injury and could feature at right wing-back against Liverpool tonight.

๐จ๐ต Lacroix will be crucial for us today. We're coming up against a team that loves to attack on the counter, and with the pace they have going forward, our defenders will need to be alert throughout the game.
Barcola is dangerous because of how often he finds himself in 1v1 situations. He has the speed to trouble defenders, but Lacroix has the recovery pace to deal with that threat. This is the kind of game where his physicality, positioning and ability to defend in open spaces will be tested.
We can't afford to leave our defence exposed, especially when losing possession. Lacroix will need to read the game well, stay composed and win his individual battles.
I believe he'll come out on top today. ๐

Chelsea could be without Joรฃo Pedro, Cole Palmer, Jamie Gittens and Emi Martรญnez for our next two games. That's a huge blow with two tough fixtures ahead. ๐ฉ
I still believe we have enough quality to hurt Liverpool and get the job done. But Manchester United worries me more.
Without our key players, we could struggle to create chances and break them down. Squad depth matters, but missing your biggest difference-makers can make all the difference. ๐
Liverpool? I'm backing Chelsea to win. ๐
Man United? That's the game I'm worried about! ๐ฌ
Because Fleetwood Town celebrated their draw against Arsenal this way,Arsenal fans thought the match was a walkover.
Fear League 2 Sides,they have so much to prove.
One of many things Alonso needs to adjust in this team is Anger Management
Our players usually find it hard to control their frustrations and opponents use it as a decoy to get to them
That's something he needs to work on
