After yet one more disappointing lead to midweek, Mauricio Pochettino expectedly made a lot of adjustments to the beginning lineup that was crushed by Manchester United at Outdated Trafford.
Armando Broja’s inclusion forward of summer season signing Nicolas Jackson was the largest speaking level surrounding Pochettino’s adjustments and it was a call that went down effectively with Chelsea followers on X.

It makes a HUGE distinction having Broja over Jackson within the group.

Sadly for neutrals, group choice and James’ harm have been the one notable speaking factors of the opening 45 minutes.
The primary half at Goodison Park, whereas laborious fought, was reasonably slowed down in a midfield battle – one which Moises Caicedo was impressing in.
Moisés Caicedo is completely high.
Nice thus far at present and his performances have been steadily bettering. Makes me smile.

Whereas Chelsea have been anticipated to spark into life after going behind, it did not actually occur.
The Blues continued to look reasonably toothless within the remaining third thereafter, hardly ever forcing Jordan Pickford into any notable saves.
As anticipated, this upset Chelsea followers fairly a bit…
