Chelsea upset 1-4 loss to Brentford, if you look at the score, many people think chelsea should not lose, but if you look at the start and formation, this game is normal to lose, because Chelsea basically used half of the main line-up in this game, and used four defenders, but you can see a lot of problems, simply look at how Chelsea lost in this game.
The defender played in a four-back formation, but could spot a lot of problems
The four-back reappeared, but it didn't seem like that, Azpilicueta obviously couldn't play the full-back of the four, and Rudiger played the center-back of the four, obviously feeling bad. Silva's performance is not good, Alonso plays full-back, the performance is also very general, in fact, from the game point of view, this four-back is very awkward, Rudiger once again showed himself can only play three-back center-back, playing four-back exposed a lot of defensive problems, if it is a four-back, right-back may be suitable for James to start. But it is true that the current defensive line, if you want to play four, it is still a bit difficult. Of course, maybe because of the Champions League, the team also let some of the main players rest in this game.
Midfield is also a magical idea, Kante starts, then Zik also plays, there is no Jorginho or Kovacic to start, this team is normal to behave like this
The obvious problem in this game is this, Kante started and performed well, but there is no real organizer in the team midfield, Zick's starting performance is still very disastrous, Mount is not very good in the midfield position, he is still suitable to play forward or be a winger. So the two all-around midfielders Mateo Kovacic and Zoginho, one did not start, the team's performance is normal, after all, Chelsea's two all-round midfielders are to grasp the rhythm of the attack, at least the starter did not see such a performance.
But the other thing is that the opponent's performance on midfield in this game is very good, so it is normal for Chelsea to lose. Both Yannit and Eriksen played perfectly in this game.
The front line doesn't know if it's a problem right now
The team's front line still looks like the old idea, not a substitute, but the performance is not good, this is very helpless, Werner lost, Havertz performance in general, overall this is still exposed the problem of the team's front line, Lukaku is a substitute, may be prepared for the Champions League, overall look at this game Chelsea front line lost, do not know how to play the game, really helpless.
Chelsea's forward line is still problematic, but this time because of the lack of support from midfield, it is normal for the front line to perform like this. The main problem of Chelsea in this game is still the defender line, the four-back formation problem is too much, the team may still have to play the system of three centre-backs in the back game, in addition, midfielders Jorginho and Kovacic have to play at least one, or the control of the midfield is not enough, the front line depends on Tucher's own thinking, Chelsea loses there is no problem, in fact, basically Chelsea is the fourth in the league, unlikely to fall behind, look at the performance of the Champions League.
