#4 Can the Chelsea defence come out on top?
At Juventus and Italy, Antonio Conte had Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci and Andrea Barzagli, arguably the three best centre backs in the game and the trio played a huge part in the team’s success. However, in West London, he didn’t implement the 3-5-2 formation and stuck with 4-1-4-1 where the team kept just one clean sheet and conceded six goals in the last four matches.
There is no denying the fact that either the system or the defence needs to be altered as both David Luiz and Garry Cahill looked jaded and disorganised at the King Power Stadium.
The Gunners haven’t scored a single goal against Chelsea in the last six encounters and this would be the best chance for Arsene Wenger’s men to make the most out of the lacklustre Chelsea defence. With already six goals in the last four matches, Conte needs to address the shambolic defence which was ripped apart for fun at times against Liverpool and Leicester City
