FA Cup 2017/18: Chelsea 4-0 Hull City; 5 Talking Points

Chelsea v AFC Bournemouth - Carabao Cup Quarter-Final
Willian's comeback proved to be vital

#3 Formation change

Chelsea v Hull City - The Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round
Conte's experiments worked perfectly

Antonio Conte decided to switch it up by playing the 3-4-3 formation instead of 3-5-2. Allowing two wingers to play off the striker in a front three provided dividends. Willian and Pedro created the width and got into goal scoring positions with each of them ultimately getting rewarded with goals for themselves.

Cesc Fabregas was a treat to watch in the centre of midfield. His passing and vision were pleasing to the eye and he got his assist when he played a sublime pass to his compatriot Pedro who finished it off to make it 2-0.
