Chelsea 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis | Premier League 2018-19

#5 Is Gonzalo Higuain even the man for Chelsea?

Another flop in the making for Chelsea?

Gonzalo Higuain has netted three goals in his Chelsea career so far - a brace against the hapless Huddersfield Town, along with a goal against a leaky Fulham outfit.

He has neither scored on any other occasion, nor he been able to weave through an opposition in the box once since switching to West London, and he has also not stepped up against the bigger, tougher oppositions.

He has barely attempted a dribble in the opposition box, and when he occasionally has, the Argentine has been robbed.

And you wonder why Olivier Giroud, who may not be the most clinical in front of goal, doesn't start matches more often for Chelsea. In fact, he has been prolific in front of goal in the Europa League.

More so, Giroud's link-up play is much better than Higuain, arguably the best in England. It's high time Higuain steps up his game, because Chelsea are not a club who like to stay on sixth place for too long.
