#4 Loftus-Cheek requires more game time

Jorginho and Kante are the two mainstays in Sarri's midfield leaving only one spot left to be filled. Barkley, Kovacic, and Loftus-Cheek all fight for that one spot on the left of the midfield trio that Sarri deploys and Loftus-Cheek strikes out as the best fit amongst the three.

Every time Loftus-Cheek plays, Chelsea is perceived to have a strong, dangerous attacking front. With his incisive passes and calm composure, he is clearly capable of turning unfavourable situations into favourable ones. Standing at a whopping 1.9m, Loftus-Cheek also gives that extra aerial threat in the box.

Although lacking in some technical and defensive discipline, he still possesses the ability to become one of the best in his position. With the right guidance those issues can undeniably be fixed, and who better to guide him than Sarri?
