- With Mauricio Pochettino as the new manager of Chelsea, the Argentine tactician is inheriting a very interesting squad. Lacking a true centre forward but blessed with some of the best attacking midfielders, creative full backs and a whole host of talented youngsters, Pochettino’s best eleven is far from clear but there is promise. So today, Statman Dave takes a look at the possible lineups, tactics and transfers that Pochettino could use ahead of the 23/24 Premier League…

![[FULL INTERVIEW] Mauricio Pochettino on building a new culture at Chelsea, becoming manager & more!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0r4agMBKUYk/mqdefault.jpg)
Tactically I think a back 3 will be best either in a 3-5-2 with the strikers sitting on the pivots in bigger games against teams like city who play in a 3-2-5, however having only one set of wide players does mean a lot of star players will have to be benched which isn't ideal, so in my opinion the 3-4-3 with nkunku as a false 9 and the wingers playing narrowly as inside forwards forming a box with the pivots and being ready to run into space created by nkunku, with the wing backs stretching the pitch. A system like this fits chelsea, as there is a lot of talent at centre back, caicedo and enzo might be the best midfield partnership in the league. Also, playing nkunku as a false 9 who can really thrive there solves the problem of not having a traditional 20+ goal superstar striker, also utilizing sterling, madueke mudryk and even jackson who can play as a wider forward. Chelsea have had success with a back 3 even after Tuchel as Potter had initially some success with it although playing sterling and pulisic as wing backs and cucurella as a cb wasn't exactly sustainable
I don't mind some of these ideas, think we might be a bit thin at CB with Fofana and Colwill injury prone and Koulibaly out and maybe Chalobah on the way out, plus Silva getting on to play 3 at the back too often. But wouldn't mind 4 at the back out of possession, then Colwill or James pushing into base of midfield in possession. Caicedo is underrated at how dangerous he is going forward, not as a goal creator, just progressing/carrying the ball.
My only thing is a traditional 3 at the back with WB's, I can't watch that boring style of football anymore, doesn't work in modern game. As good as our WB's are, both RJ and Chilwell can't stay fit, but think both RJ and Hall could be very successful inverted.
Back 3 or Back 4 offensively it's basically the same 5 players in the final third then 3 at the back and 2 in the middle or in some systems 2 at the back and 3 in the middle (something that is seen less and less). Also what do you mean by a traditional back 3? Was Tuchel's not traditional for example? Or Inzaghi's? Saying a back 3 doesn't work just isn't true
@@monoapoel234 Well it is true, back 3 with WB's doesn't work, Tuchel made it work in one UCL run with Chelsea because he's a good knockout manager, but they were pretty terrible in the league and struggled to score, which is same for Inter. Tuchel hasn't used it at Bayern even with great WB's in Cancelo and Davies, and De Ligt, Upamecano and Pavard at CB. Now Pavard wants to leave because he isn't being used at CB, so they definitely have the system for 3 at the back.
Again Inzaghi is a knockout manager specialist, struggled in the league, only managed to qualify for UCL next season cos Juve got points deduction and Milan bottled it. Both were nowhere near Lazio or Napoli in terms of playing quality football.
There's a reason why nobody in Prem uses that system, outside of Conte and we know how that turned out.
@@granth1238he won the league in his first season? Then an Fa cup in the second? 😂😂 (talking about conte) You're making an extreme generalization and still you're factually wrong about each separate thing you are generalizing. Chelsea were not horrible in the league they were the best team behind city after Tuchel's arrival and change to A BACK 3 a city which they beat in multiple occasions cup, league, UCL and were only slightly worse statistically in the league due to bad finishing not lack of creativity. Inzaghi's inter outperformed city with darmian at cb and probably should have won the final, while still managing second place in the league behind the best Napoli since Maradona with much more quality. There is a vast variety of back 3 systems, that's why what you're saying is a generalization, many managers many teams have success with it and a back 3 doesn't mean big Sam anti-football. You're also straight up underappreciating what Tuchel achieved. He didn't manage one good UCL run. He won the whole thing. With a team that when he arrived was mid table unable to defend or attack and he won the biggest trophy in all of football in the same season, the same one that Pep needed a Billion pounds, 7 years and zero ffp accountability to win and was still fairly lucky in the final. And Tuchel isn't the only one Conte, Inzaghi, Mourinho just to name 3
Poch is not playing a back 3 and with the exodus of Ayers, it doesn't suit us again.
Drifting away from 3ATB might be the best approach for Poch, Chelsea have some great talent in the Midfield and utilizing them would be great.
Carney/Casadei/Santos are players with huge potential, having an additional spot in the center of the field would help there progress.
With 4-3-3 having two experienced Midfielders (Enzo&Caicedo) and one Youngster like Santos/Casadei/Carney in some games would suit them.
But still 4-2-3-1 is a solid option and I think that’s what we’ll see next season.
With a lot of departures I would like to see a transfer video for Chelsea. What players should Chelsea sign to replace the outgoings.
Wow Timo Werner is making Video about Chelsea. Once a blue always a blue💙
ive always wanted to see RJ play at the cdm. he can test keepers at the edge of the box but also be a force at the back of a midfield diamond with gusto and madueke flying on the outside
Just play enzo as the playmaker and have santos next to caicedo if he signs, poch uses the wb's as the wide players so its not like he will be playing as a winger
I don't mind some of these ideas, think we might be a bit thin at CB with Fofana and Colwill injury prone and Koulibaly out and maybe Chalobah on the way out, plus Silva getting on to play 3 at the back too often. But wouldn't mind 4 at the back out of possession, then Colwill or James pushing into base of midfield in possession. Caicedo is underrated at how dangerous he is going forward, not as a goal creator, just progressing/carrying the ball.
My only thing is a traditional 3 at the back with WB's, I can't watch that boring style of football anymore, doesn't work in modern game. As good as our WB's are, both RJ and Chilwell can't stay fit, but think both RJ and Hall could be very successful inverted.
We have only cup and league games though no cl
Surely Havertz could have played that Eriksen role on the right? Letting him go might suggest that Poch has a different system in mind.
Havertz is also pants
i was thinking the same thing n he would finally be played where he would be at his best, but your latter comment seals it i really dont know what to think Poch was available when we bought Potter out of contract why are we so excited about him now?
Letting Havertz go was pure business, had a ready made replacement in Nkunku and a couple youngsters like Carney and madueke who can play that position and need developing. 65 million was too much to pass up for squad depth, not to mention Kai was unhappy at the club
I think Mount would've played that role well. He has more vision than Havertz. Havertz had a good sense of timing wrt arriving in the box. Obviously both scenarios are impossible now.
Although I'd like to see if Ziyech can play that role. His vision and passing is better than both Havertz and Mount, but stamina and work rate are lower.
Mount would’ve fit the role even better imo
Can Poochachino, teach Chelsea some new tricks?
Agree Caceido is going to be a massive boost to who-ever signs him. As you say in the diamond all relies on Caicedo and Enzo then bulking up with James. Be interesting to see if "Pooch" goes for that formation.
simply getting the team fit will make a huge difference
Think this young squad needs a level of tactical stability Dave.
No more changing the formation every single week like under Potter / Tuchel / Lampard.
Tactics are overrated anyway for me, its will always be about player quality and confidence / morale over what formation they stand in at kick off.
by your logic a manager has no impact
None of them had the opportunity to get rid of the players they don't want this fast as well. Poch has no excuse.
hello lovely video analysis, based on Poch's setup which position/attacker benefits the most in terms of goals and assists?
Finally thanks for listening one of my favorite CZcamsr ❤️
Think Broja will play a big role next season
Hopefully, but it'll depend on how he receovers.
Facts
Why do people think Poch will use his old system?... Things have changed tbh. He needs more than that
Cuz he has proved to not much evolve.
Szoboszlai close to signing for Liverpool
Really excited at the pairing of Caicedo and Enzo however center midfield is light now with Jorgi, RLC, Kante and Kova all gone. Gallagher is more of a 10.
In Chelsea having a wide player that come in from the wing an influence play in the center, I see how that could be effective but someone currently in the swuad can fill that gap.
Dave plz have a look at
1) Vinicius Souza (CDM, plays for Espanyol, physically dominant and a great tackler, he needs to improve his passing game which pochettino can work upon, I think Souza can be that underrated signing)
2) Eric Martel(plays for Koln, His defensive stats are excellent and he has the physical advantage which chelsea currently does not have in the midfield)
Until pre season starts no one can predict line up, as we’re going to bring in more new players
This is impressive video
I think an option to caciedo is Bryan christante who I think is fantastic and can be gotten for like 50M or cheaper .
Can we get an update on poch tactics after 5games please
I think it’ll be Veiga/Kudus as the RW/Creator you mentioned. I’d love to see Olise there he’s a beast
Strange to assume the tactics would work the exact same as at Spurs… just because he had erikssen on the right in the past, doesn’t mean he will next season. He could easily play with madueke on the right
Respectfully I think a Back 3 is the worst formation to use when we have wingers who are adapt at wide play and holding the touchline.. Under Tuchel no wide forward actually developed from Pulisic, CHO, Ziyech etc and they were severely impacted by that shape even though it was successful for at least a season. Poch ought to rely on his trusted 4231 or 433 that will get the best out of everyone in the squad. We've catered too much to our "weakest" players ie Azpi, Jorginho now Silva who I adore but will not be here long term and stunting young players growth for him is backwards if you ask me. Collwill in a back for is amazing same goes for every CB at the club.
Man did you forget we won't play champions league ?? Omsinhen, Maignan, you are dreaming and Caicedo I'm not sure too. Also you forgot Nicolas Jackson's deal is done. James in the midfield I like it ! And yes we need Mudryk
They already agreed on terms with Caicedo. They just have to get Brighton to accept a bid
Poch is trying to recruit gabri veiga from celta vigo and I think he will most likely be the person who can play that Eriksen role
He can't even play that role. He plays like dele alli
@@KDarrsanaayou’re a dummy
Dave, make a video about Newcastle. I see a lot of tactical options. I think will be top 4 again
Next video, Mount and how he will help UTD 👍
I am expecting a 4 -2 -3 -1.
If Chelsea don't but a top striker in addition to Jackson, I hope they splash out and buy Mike Mignon, assuming they are able to buy Caicedo and also sell more players.
4-2-3-1
Maignan
James Silva Badashile Chilwell
Enzo Caicedo
Sterling Nkunku Mudryk
Jackson
I dont think Szoboszlai to Chelsea will ever happen. But still i agree he would be a beast at chelsea.
I don't think Chelsea are even looking at him
I don't want him at Chelsea he Is good but similar to havertz
@@alexrichards4511 Yes, he doesn't seem to have amazing end product (obviously, I can't say this for certain because I haven't watched enough).
I believe he was on their radar but having bought Nkunku from RB, doubt they would go for Dom as well. Liverpool look in prime position to get him. Looking like it'll be Veiga from Celta.
@@aaro96livethey where, also with our rb leipzig people at the top we know him very well.
Question is if we can afford it without cl.
He will be £55-65m
Caicedo is 80 and jackson 30m
2:52 Does anyone know what transfer data Statman Dave is using here?
sofascore
Pretty sure they´re still signing a striker, a creative and Caicedo but the names you mentioned would cost Chelsea at least 300M so not happening. Levi Colwill will start ahead of Badiashile, my bet.
Striker will not happen other will in my view
@@firefistbijay5657 its gonna be a hard season without a striker and a decent keeper.
Assuming we get a new goalkeeper, holding midfielder and striker this is what I’d say our team will look like and the new signings I have in the team could be any player in those positions really:
PRESSING
Maignan
Gusto Fofana Colwill Maatsen
James Caicedo Fernandez
Nkunku
Osimhen Mudryk
DEFENDING/ ATTACKING TRANSITION
Maignan
Gusto Fofana Colwill
James Caicedo Fernandez Maatsen
Nkunku Osimhen Mudryk
IN POSSESSION
Maignan
Gusto Fofana Colwill
Caicedo Maatsen
James Nkunku Fernandez Mudryk
Osimhen
Jackson is the striker. 🔥
This guy thinks Caicedo is a holding midfielder, what is bro waffling about?
Can Casadei play in that wide no.10 role?
Pls make a video on sofyan amrabat ?? To United
U missed ... jackson ... and Colwell and Gallagher and mudryk
Instead of spending lots of a CDM just do what city have done, convert a CB into a CDM and out of possession you got an extra CB, then promote levi colwill into a senior, he is doing wonders for England u21's with bags of potential
Lol, you can't just do that without the other pieces in place. Even Pep had to implement it slowly. Gundogan tried it out in the u16s first and they ironed it out. The back line was also very disciplined and strong defenders individually to cover the spaces during counters, when Stones was higher up the pitch. Especially Dias and Walker, very difficult to beat.
Did Poch tell this guy how he'll set up?
Szoboszlai has signed for Liverpool and jackson should play on the right instead of madeuke
Chelsea best 11
Kepa
Chilwell Badishala Silva.James
Enzo. Caicedo
Mudryk. Nkuku. Sterling
Jakson
It's high time Chelsea plays with a back 4 system.
Nobody playing 3-4-3 better than Sarri and Conte tbh, so playing same old tactic will bring back same problems
Football needs to get some fairness. The current path is on of destruction of fair play.
bro is cosplay timo werner. 🤣
If Chelsea couldn't get victory Osihmen we should try and get martinez from Inter Milan as part of a swap deal to sell lukaku to Inter Milan. Also buy Alvarez from ajax and hijack arsenal for Timber. We also need a goalkeeper like Onana or Sign Pickford from Everton as they need the money.
It is well known now that Kepa is favored by Poch.
Why are Cfc signing midfielders when we got enzo Carney Santos Gallagher casadei
Chelsea are going to play Nkunku and Fofana up top.
SZOBO IS RED! :)
Szoboszlai would be a very good investiment for Chelsea. His current market value is €50.00m
Rece james, Sterling & Mudryk not good enough for Chelsea 😮
Absolute terrible comment 😂
@@FirstLast-ur6xt shut up man all 3 of them r good for nothing just injury miss chances and mudruk just plain average
I don't like how u say the Christian ericksen role lol main reason I didn't want poch we have enough players to do otherwise madueke doesn't have to play like ericksen
I bet it's gonna be, 4-2-3-1
Jackson is a 9
3-4-3 wont work as santos plays more like enzo, gallaher n chuwamekwa most likely, it would work if chelsea sign caicedo or if they had more cash rice. also too add instead N. Jackson E. Wahi would have been excellent as he could be great in connecting passes and dominating the attacking spots in the box
Sacked in December that’s how he’ll set them up
Try to come up with new and original joke challenge difficulty: IMPOSSIBLE
@@mmsjejrinside385Even less original reply
This one must be a spurs fan
Yeah if Szobo came it would be insane, unfortunately Liverpool is more smarter than us.
i think in the 343 you can play mudryk "LWB" where he can have the freedom to hold width or cut inside, becomes more of a 325 with RJ and mudryk wide, nkunku and szoboszlai as the inside forwards and a new striker. I think this is even more important as chilwell has lost alot of pace.
No way should stering be starting or even on the bench at chelsea. rather play myself than have sterling play.
I think its a little lazy to try to shoehorn Poch's old system at Spurs onto this Chelsea side. The squads are very different stylistically, and Poch has evolved over his time at PSG
He doesn’t try unless it’s Man U
It's really the best evidence of Poch's philosophy. He couldn't do much at PSG with Messi, Neymar & Mbappé and didn't have much at Southampton. I do expect Poch to evolve but a double pivot comprised of a ball winner & a creative controller with the width coming from attacking full backs will be key regardless of the system
@@StatmanDaveClipsWhy did Chelsea buy Mudryk and Madueke when they have Chilwell (and Reece) who tend to provide the width? They had the opportunity to mold a young squad that can play similar to Arsenal and City.
So your suggestions are to put us back in the mud with ffp? And Your the self proclaimed statman?😂
Chelsea we need Moises caicedo plz plz plz our boss buy us caicedo
kepa not good enough
Theyll probably spend another 300 mil. Theyre gonna be terrible next season too much change. They might get better towards the end of the season, but i can see potch losing the dressing room.
And you see your club wining the trophy ?
Too much change? There's two new players in that starting 11 from last season lmao. Are you pretending to be stupid or are you actually stupid?
we literally made 220m from player sales so it's natural to re invest and we've been needing a striker and dm for a while

Chelsea won the league with a back 3
no mas 3-4-3
If I see one more 3 ATB comment or video I'ma lose my $h!t
Havertz was not going to fit in in Pochetino sqd becoz of his laziness never .
It will be a complete black nfl team way it's going.
Chelsea have zero chance of winning anything without a central striker. Sterling needs to show consistency to earn a place in the starting line up.
