Carabao Cup 2017/18: Chelsea 2-1 Everton, 5 Talking Points

Che
Chelsea finish the job as expected.

#3 Antonio Conte needs to trust his youngsters

Loosen up,
Loosen up, Antonio!

Not the only manager in the Premier League who complains about the size of his squad but if Antonio Conte did really want to win the Premier League again this season, he could've done without having to bring on regular first-teamers as substitutes.

With Jake Clarke-Salter, Dujon Sterling and Kyle Scott also on the bench, he chose to bring on his experienced triplet of Alvaro Morata, Pedro and Cesc Fabregas.

Chelsea do have a smaller squad, true, but academy prospects will help the side in matches like this. Everton tried the same and it almost for them, who's to say it wouldn't have done so for the hosts?
