Chelsea 1-1 Leicester City: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis | Premier League 2019/20

#5 While not with the ball, Chelsea have a lot to learn

Cesar Azpilicueta was rooted to the ground when Ndidi scored Leicester's goal

At last, the game finished at 1-1, but Leicester ended their game as the better side in the second half. They enjoyed more than 10 attempts on goal, with Maddison and Tielemans being at the heart of the attacks.

One strikingly significantly worrying sign for Chelsea is how they defended without the ball. Just when the away side began to commit members forward, put pressure on the Chelsea full-backs and holding midfielders, there was a sense of panic around.

More often than not, it was the poor decision making from Leicester City that spared the Blues' blushes. Had Vardy got to the end of better passes from his peers, Lampard would've still been sitting on zero points in the Premier League.

Chelsea were left exposed without the ball, as poor positioning, tracking and chasing led to the exposure of a large portion of their casualties. Something needs to happen soon, because the silky-smooth football toppled with tremendous tempo will start to fade away if the team doesn't collectively muster victories.

In terms of tracking back and especially positioning, Lampard will have to introduce his wider midfielders to a more compact approach heading forward.
