Leeds United 0-0 Chelsea - so poor today from Chelsea and I will tell you exactly why with my raw, honest, and uncut immediate reaction.
In my view Thomas Tuchel got this one wrong with his team selection playing both Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic in positions they are not familiar with. Chelsea advertised the team selection as 4231 but it was clear that it was the 343 we have seen ever since Tuchel arrived.
Chelsea with Kai Havertz playing as a number nine lacked someone up top who is willing to play on the shoulder of the last defender, looking to get in behind. Instead, Havertz would drop deep to get involved in our build up play which is not what we needed today. There was a couple of occasions that he did make that run but it wasn't enough.
Chelsea dominated possession overall but today, in the second half despite a good opening 5-10 minutes never really created clear goal scoring opportunities which is frustrating. I want to see Thomas Tuchel change the formation to chase the win, to ask the players to do something different because like for like substitutions didn't do anything today.
Without question this was a missed opportunity for Chelsea today, a poor performance and two dropped points.
I explain all this in more detail in the video!
