Reasons for Chelsea's Lose to Manchester City, Lesson to learn

Chelsea football club submitted to Manchester City in a match that ended 0:1, at their home. Chelsea became so leggy after Morata got an unexpected injury which saw him out of the pitch.

Chelsea is a very strong side in the Premier League, but the way or should I say the pattern of play was poor. Manchester United is a strong side, to play a team like Manchester City; Chelsea needed an extraordinary squad to embark on this journey.

Gary Cahill would have been on the bench for Manchester City clash. The three-man defends would have featured; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiga. But including Cahill, made no way for Victor Moses to be introduced as the ‘three man’ formation system is built around Victor Moses.

As Morata got that injury, Willian shouldn’t have come in for the injured goal machine, Morata. Batshuayi was the right candidate to be introduced at that time because there was still enough time for him to prove himself as a striker. If you saw the game, you will notice that Chelsea was a little with the ball when Morata was on the pitch, but when off, City dominated. This means a striker’s influence was needed on time.

Christensen did a great job by denying Gabriel Jesus a chance of registering his name on the goal scoring list at the bridge. It was clearly seen that Gabriel really needed the partnership of Kun Aguero in the upfront to enable him to strike well.

Manchester City was so tactical, right from the beginning of the game to the end. Manchester City ran throughout the game which helped them cover spaces which would have helped Chelsea penetrate in to find a goal. Pep showed class as City outclassed Chelsea in revenge to last season’s loose to Chelsea.
