Why doesn't anyone think Maresca can/will use a 2-3-5 & not just 3-2-5 in settled play? City do it now because they have technically gifted players to sustain pressure and provides just as much security in transition whether its 2-3 or 3-2 rest defense (2-3 gives you much more command of central areas during attack). I believe we'll be bold since there's no longer Silva who lacked pace that prevented us from pushing high up. That way it allows us to use 2 CBs as the last line (most of our CBs are very fast) one fullback inverting (Cucu) and the other overlapping or under lapping depending on who's playing on the flank. In midfield I believe KDH will play more minutes than we imagine, Palmer would have to adapt to RW because the two 8s are very important parts of Maresca's set up, not just offensively. So if Palmer finds himself in the 8, defensively we will suffer except he starts to burn more energy helping the team. I'm more concerned about our CBs game time, rather than midfield to be honest.
Football is fluid these days.Chelsea is a big club, everybody will get a chance to contribute. Only Caicedo and Palmer appear irreplaceable at the moment, every other person will justify their need to play.This is not a club of 11 good players, we should have 22 good players that can start. With this squad we have, there is room for flexibility. Cole Palmer should not be playing every game, particularly the carabao games, he needs to be rested so he can be fresh for crucial games
How about a 4-3-1-2 formation, with Palmer as d sole no.10, Nkunku playing as supporting striker and KDH playing the left-hand side of the 3-man midfield
Moresca always uses 2 no 10s so both will play definately in that midfield. Cole from the left KDH from the right.Our 2 most expensive midfielders can't be both benched so either Enzo or caicedo will play deep with an inverted fullback. Myself i'll prefer Lavia in that position when he's fit.
@@sergeynestgerov4843 sadly I agree. We have two players now that will pull up their sleeves and do the dirty energetic work in Caicedo and Dewsbury Hall. Both are technically better players. But Gallagher puts up a fight like I’ve never seen. I still remember when the team was completely out of form and everyone was hiding in attack and defence under Lampard he was the one guy that showed up. It’s these moments I hope that other players can emulate.
We can play with caicedo as a pivot hall at the Left half space Enzo at the right half Parma at the right wing space sterling or mudrik at the left wing space then James attack the line at the wing space Enzo drop from the right half space while Parma will move immediately to the right and at same time James can invert at same, Enzo attack the right half space parma stay wide which I believe with the level of their understanding we can a better rotation like this from our right side like Portugal in ongoing euro cup which cancelo,vitinha and Bernardo are applying this rotation like this and his even what will apply btw Enzo, sterling and James against Liverpool in the second half of our opening premier league match last season
We don't have just this season to compete, this season alone we'll be competing in 4 competitions and next season in cwc and hopefully ucl. With the new format of the ucl and other completions, surely everyone will have enough minutes to their legs.
I don't like Enzo game for anything. No scoring sense and assist. I will prefer Cucurella to support Caicedo at the Midfield as seen towards the ending of last season when Enzo was injured. We won almost all the games. If Maresca needs to do better in his first season he needs to sacrifice Enzo in that midfield.
I don't know if it's another channel or yours but what is so bad in having enzo and caceido as double pivot with an attacking fullback in either James or chilwel. Everybody is saying enzo is a natural fit for replacing enzo so why are we expecting to play him up front as one of the 8s when we know it doesn't work. To me what works on paper at least is James and cucurella as fullbacks, james being an overlapping fullback, he is great at that, palmer starts as right winger and moves into the right half space with James overlapping. The playing personel doesn't matter as long as everyone understands what they are meant to do in any given position. To me Spain's pattern suits chelsea more. Enzo for rodri, caciedo for Fabian Ruiz, then Palmer for pedri, others can fill up the rest.
I know this is for content purposes but in a few words. What recruitment is doing. 1. We only have Palmer in that left 10 role, was effective at RW. Admit it doesn't affect him. 2. We only have Noni at RW, after failing to get Olise. Solution: get SBD who can chip in for Palmer instead. If Noni is injured, no problem,if Palmer is out, no problem. I find this perfectly balanced and competence-led. All these Enzo stories got mi ribs cracking man! He's what we got instead of Olise in a bid to balance the TEAM.
Ndidi is the cm who pushed up. Caicedo will be the one to push up. He'll have 8+ assists due to his effectiveness in counter-pressing, winning the ball high and don't forget ranks in the 90s for insightful passing. He'll grow into this role. Enzo will be in Kroos role. Deep and only joins the attack later on.
It will be work putting Nkunku Enzo and KDH in this team even Mudryk might be hindered with Sterling asking for games...Also Palmer should not be returned to RW NOOOO ...It will not be easy Gallagher might not be sold but ends up rotting on the bench Carney also
Nkunku actually plays dat Dewsbury Hall position on d left, while Palmer does dat from d right. Jackson plays in attack except we get Osimehn. I don’t think we’ll get Jonathan David as Nkunku can deputise in attack. We’ll still need to sell at least 3 players and loan a bit more to trim down the squad.
We don't need to play all of the them at ones we can use dewsbury as a impact sub or as a rotation player to eas le the number of game times on our players people forget we are going to have a lot of games this season dewsbury amd be a rotation player who start here and there depending on the situation and opposition
I hate that people forget that to compete you need quality in your bench too. Look at trosard for arsenal or Alvarez for city. Not everyone can start but in case of injuries you need someone who can fill in without dropping team qualiy
We can't fit everything on the pitch. At least, we will have a very good bench for substitutions. Dewsbury will probably be on the bench with Gallagher, and Santos. We could have Cowill, Gusto, Viega, Disasi, Sterling, Madueke, Guiu and even Nkunku on the bench for tactical changes. That's 11 players who can set up as a team B and can beat most teams in the Premier league. Even Chukwemeka will be on the bench. Our bench will be better than last season when Poch at times didn't have anyone to turn to when things are going south.
Enzo is undroppable in that maresca system,enzo will be our deep lying playmaker always dictating play from deep areas,just the way he used Winks in that Leicester team
New signings will upset this but I think we’ll see variations of; GK James Tosin Colwill Cucu Enzo Caicedo KDH Palmer Nkunku Sterling With a B team. GK Gusto. Fofana Disasi Badiashile Santos Lavia Chukwuemeka Madueke Jackson Mudryk
I honestly don’t think KDH starts. He’ll definitely be a good rotation but I don’t see a world where Enzo and Caicedo don’t start while we sacrifice Palmer tying him down to the wing
@@talkfootballty2025 maresca didn’t ask to sign him. It was an idea that can from the recruitment team. Fabrizio Romano goes into depth about this if you watch his video
Palmer on the wing won't be a sacrifice go watch how Enso used him to win man city pl2 , his best season bl4 coming to Chelsea, and even pep at the senior team esp against Arsenal during the community shield, watch his goal carefully you will see that walker overlaps while he cut in and score, we have reece James and custo to do that
besides in a system of positional play players interchange positions a lot so kdh can always switch to the right for Palmer to come in or the right back overlaps
Bro this is wrong Kdh and Palmer will both play the two number 8 Maudeke and Sterling orMudryk will play the wing Enzo and caicedo will play double pivot.
It's not that easy..Nkunku will be in the first team 💯💯💯Where do you put him???Then with Caicedo and Enzo playing together means you either drop KDH or Palmer so you can have 3 midfielders and no one can drop Palmer or fans will tear you apart....It's not that simple
It will be so hard to choose a working X1 than people think without holding back players like Mudryk and Enzo with nKUNKU in x1 and KDH being managers signing ... Also Palmer must remain 10.... with out reactionary selfish fans who wants their favorites to play...It will be chaos and Maresca will be gone in January

Bcos he has said it himself that leaving 2 at the back will leave only 3/4 players to defend a turnover. He prefers the balance of 5

And we also have to play in Europe 😅..
How about a 4-3-1-2 formation, with Palmer as d sole no.10, Nkunku playing as supporting striker and KDH playing the left-hand side of the 3-man midfield
It’s not about who will start, we also need a good bench to be able to compete
The first formation with Reece hugging the line instead of Palmer is the most likely, with Nkunku up top.
I appreciate the insightful breakdowns. 🙌

As a midfielder wat does galager really good at?
he has to go

that guy palmer has an insane football IQ,No matter wher he plays on the pitch he can make things happen,he just know when and wher to run
so no problem if he plays on the wings to make way for kdh
Nkuku,jackson,palmer
Kdh,caicedo,enzo
Cucurela,colwin,fofana,james
We can play with caicedo as a pivot hall at the Left half space Enzo at the right half Parma at the right wing space sterling or mudrik at the left wing space then James attack the line at the wing space Enzo drop from the right half space while Parma will move immediately to the right and at same time James can invert at same, Enzo attack the right half space parma stay wide which I believe with the level of their understanding we can a better rotation like this from our right side like Portugal in ongoing euro cup which cancelo,vitinha and Bernardo are applying this rotation like this and his even what will apply btw Enzo, sterling and James against Liverpool in the second half of our opening premier league match last season

I would start caicedo as RB where he played before and invert him to midfield that could work
Perfect formation
The major problem of Chelsea selection is Enzo, enzo need to be drop to bench but bcus of the outrageous fees, that might be difficult for any coach
Go and drop him
I don’t know how nobody else can see it. He’s a slower Jorginho with an even worse shot power. So disappointing
Exactly. I don't care about name but performance.
Enzo is slow and is killing Chelsea's games.
I don't like Enzo game for anything. No scoring sense and assist. I will prefer Cucurella to support Caicedo at the Midfield as seen towards the ending of last season when Enzo was injured. We won almost all the games. If Maresca needs to do better in his first season he needs to sacrifice Enzo in that midfield.

Please we need a tactical analysis of sonia bompastor Chelsea coach
Nkunku is barely mentioned, how is that??? Is he going to warm the bench? I think not…
False 9
Play on the left
@@morrisagondez4943 he’s not a winger he won’t stay wide😂
I don't think Chelsea we signed any recognized striker this summer, and try Nkuku as false 9
Let’s get mcatee to play on the wing, like bernado silva

No matter what,palmer is going to the right wing
What do you think of a 3-Diamond-3 formation with palmer at the tip of the diamond KDH-Caicedo-Enzon making up the base of the diamond in any order?
Then we lack Reece or Gusto
Reece in the back 3 will help him. Reduce the load on his hamstring.
What about Nkunku
Petrovic
James tosin colwill cucu
Cai. Enzo
Palmer kdh. Nkuku

Why is no CZcamsr talking about how to fit Nkunku, and Lavia
In this I think gallagher should leave in peace

Enzo is undroppable in that maresca system,enzo will be our deep lying playmaker always dictating play from deep areas,just the way he used Winks in that Leicester team
Why not?! Isn't it better to have more creative players on the pitch than less?
Where does all this leave Nkuku. No way KDH is technically better than Nkuku
Not only hall,nkunku is better than all our attackers,including palmer...I blame injuries
i think palmer should be like hazard and let hall play at mid
We play europe. Everyone will get a chance
