Chelsea predicted XI vs Wolves: Mount starts, Havertz dropped
Right Wing back: Reece James
Injuries have led to Reece James playing with a very cautious approach over the last month which is exactly why he decided to withdraw from the International camp halfway. But after building match fitness and gaining some sharpness, James displayed glimpses of the quality he possesses against Jurgen Klopp’s men.
Central Midfield: N’Golo Kante
The world class midfielder started for the first time in seven months and was by far the best player on the pitch. His ability to win the ball back and switch the play quickly is unreal. However is time on the pitch has to be managed carefully keeping the Madrid game in mind.
Central Midfield: Enzo Fernandez
The Argentine was impressive yet again and with Kante alongside, he will continue to have more freedom to take more risks and showcase his abilities better. He has been instrumental since his arrival and as of now his spot remains uncontested. However the humble midfielder says:
"“It’s a very tough league. I am coming from the Portuguese League where sometimes you play more with the ball. Here the game is faster and more physical so I am adapting step by step.” “I know it is going to take time but I have the support from my teammates and the coaching staff so I can adapt quicker and better here.”"
Left Wing back: Ben Chilwell
The English International struggled against Liverpool and was not involved for the most parts of the game which eventually led to him being substituted. He was in fine form since his return from injury and will now hope to put that performance behind him, have a good game on the weekend and get set for the trip to the Santiago Bernabeu.
