#2 Effective substitutions

Maurizio Sarri's game management was impressive as his substitutions were timely. The replacements made a good impact on the game as Chelsea consolidated their position further in the second half.

Chelsea fans will see this in stark contrast to Antonio Conte, whose substitutions and game management invited a lot of criticism last season.

The substitutions also showed the trust the manager has in players like Loftus-Cheek and Victor Moses. Loftus-Cheek especially looked much more effective in the middle of the pitch and could stake a claim in the starting eleven against Arsenal next Saturday.

Eden Hazard was the most effective substitute as the Belgian wizard carried his World Cup form to the Premier league by setting up the third goal, and was also a constant nuisance for Huddersfield's defenders.
