Chelsea has officiated the presence of Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner. In the next few days, the management of The Blues – nicknamed Chelsea – will bring in three other names.
Call it Kai Havertz (playmaker, Bayer Leverkusen), Ben Chilwell (left fullback, Leicester City) and Thiago Silva (center back, Paris Saint-Germain). To bring in Havertz, Chelsea spent 100 million euros
For Chilwell, Chelsea management spent 50 million pounds. Chilwell’s presence is badly needed by Chelsea next season, considering that the Blues do not have top players in the left fullback position.
Chelsea’s two current left full-backs, Emerson and Marcos Alonso, appear below expectations. Therefore, the presence of Chilwell who is the mainstay of the England national team is predicted to have a big impact on the Blues.
What about Silva next? The Brazilian passport defender will be hooked up for free, considering his contract with PSG has ended. Later, Chelsea management will sign Thiago Silva for two seasons.
One thing is certain, the presence of Chilwell and Silva is eagerly awaited by Chelsea. Because, defense was the main problem faced by Chelsea last season. Recorded from 38 appearances in the Premier League, Chelsea’s goal has conceded 54 balls
This number is the largest compared to the occupants of the top 10 in the 2019-2020 Premier League standings. So with the presence of the five players above, what formation will Chelsea use next season?
Chelsea coach Frank Lampard is likely to rely on a 4-3-3 pattern. For the goalkeeper position, Kepa Arrizabalaga will serve as goalkeeper. Then, four equal defenders are occupied by Reece James, Kurt Zouma, Silva and Chilwell.
For the three midfielders, Loftus-Cheek and N’Golo Kante will support Havertz’s performance. Meanwhile, the leading three players will be occupied by Hakim Ziyech (right winger), Mason Mount (left winger) and Timo Werner (center forward).
Here are the forecasts for Chelsea next season:
(4-3-3): Kepa; James, Zouma, Silva, Chilwell; Kante, Loftus-Cheek, Havertz; Ziyech, Mount, Werner.
