Brighton and Hove Albion 1-1 Chelsea: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis | Premier League 2019-20

#4 Graham Potter ups the intensity with a change in dynamics

Aaron Connolly was brought on in the second half by Graham Potter

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and not for the first time this season, the former Swansea boss tinkered his configuration, fielding both Maupay and Connolly up front to thereby infuse energy, press the Chelsea defenders and run down the channels.

Aaron Mooy, who couldn't quite dictate the pace of play as he did against the Cherries, was soon substituted for Jahanbaksh.

They upped the ante, kept it alive and got thorough support from a rapturous home crowd. Credit Potter for dislodging his central midfield and stretching the Chelsea back line through a different medium.

Clearly then, there was a bit of urgency with respect to the way Brighton went about their game. They had more of the ball, more movement off it and a significant number of passes played through the midfield.

It certainly paid off, as Jahanbaksh plucked one out of thin air to claw Brighton back into it.
