5 Chelsea youngsters who could benefit from their transfer ban

#2 Ruben Loftus Cheek

RLC: Is it time for him to fulfil his talent?

During his spell at Chelsea, Maurizio Sarri has only used a 4-3-3 formation. In that formation, he only uses a technical player to play the fundamental "Regista" role. So, this position is reserved for Jorginho. On the right side of Jorginho, Sarri uses Kante. On the left side of Jorginho, Sarri mostly uses Kovačić and Barkley. Comparing to previous seasons, Ruben Loftus Cheek has been given much more minutes, but mostly on the right wing.

At the moment, it seems like midfield is Chelsea's biggest problem. There is no creativity in their midfield and also there is zero attacking threat from midfield players. Many fans want Sarri to pair Loftus Cheek with Kante and Jorginho in the starting lineup. The young Englishmen is very good with the ball at his feet and when he is on the field he is a constant attacking threat for opposition defenders.

There is no "option to buy" clause in Kovačić's loan contract so probably he won't stay at the club. Beacuse of that, this Chelsea team needs RLC more than ever.
