#4 Defensive Woes
Chelsea, as a team, have been known for their defensive resilience, they are a team which is capable of winning games and trophies even though they are defending for most of their games.
But since last season, Chelsea's defence has been a shadow of itself. The Blues have allowed 17 clear cut chances against them while City and Liverpool have five and seven respectively.
It would be fair to say that Chelsea were lucky that they have not been punished more by lower opposition.
Unfortunately for them, every top team has punished their defensive slips and they have conceded goals. The Blues have conceded a total of 11 goals against top teams such as Tottenham, Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United in all competitions.
David Luiz has been responsible for 64% of league goals Chelsea have conceded, while Jorginho has done little to prove that he can provide defensive cover as well.
Kepa, the world's most expensive goalkeeper, has been bang average at Stamford Bridge, while Azpilicueta looks uncomfortable in the right-back role and Marcos Alonso often roams forward with less defensive cover.
Ngolo Knate could be used in the defensive midfield role as he is the best defensive midfielder in the world, while other players such as Andreas Christensen and Gary Cahill should also be considered in that role.
Victor Moses could also be used as a right back as he can provide more attacking intent, while Azpi could move to a centre-back role where he was so effective under Antonio Conte and he could also provide a role of a leader in the back four as well.
