(Pre-emptive link)
The whole first half.
Chelsea
Both dominated most of the possession and constantly tried to launch attacks, but Nottingham Forest were able to hold on, and really the main problem was that the
Chelsea
yourself, at the moment
Chelsea
The right wing of James was injured, and then Chukwuemaeka was also injured, so Pochettino moved Enzo Fernandez to the front, but the problem arose when Enzo left the back position, Enzo showed great form after the season started, and was very effective in distributing the ball from the back, especially when he went up to the front, and his passes even penetrated the defense. His passes even penetrate the defense, but that means from the back to the front. Enzo's tactical vision is quite high, but he needs to work in the wide midfield, once he is put in front of the field and subjected to dense defense, Enzo's ability to observe in the midfield is limited, instead of being able to play his commanding tower function.
And Caicedo, who is new to the team, isn't used to the team and isn't a commanding tower function player himself, in this case
Chelsea
The midfield command function was given to him, and as a result his deliveries were very ordinary and not capable of destroying the defense. Gallagher on the other side of the field was also not a good back, and although he was constantly going up the field, he was clearly ordinary in choosing his position, and his passing was not particularly good either. There were two occasions in the first half when he could have sent a pass to Sterling that would have ripped through the defense and made a one-time goal, but he was not able to deliver a well placed pass that would have made a one-time goal. His passes were poorly weighted and prevented him from delivering the killer blow.
Jackson functions as a nose tackle, and he obviously needs space to rush the ball.
Chelsea
When Jackson couldn't get the ball out of the center of the field, he couldn't get out of the center of the field, and Jackson and Sterling seemed to have a tacit understanding problem, Sterling couldn't quite find Jackson when he cut into the right side, and Jackson couldn't get the first time to cross into the defense, and he didn't brake the car in advance to get the ball at the back of the field to take a shot, so the whole first half of the game, Jackson couldn't get the ball out of the center of the field, and he couldn't get the ball out of the center of the field. So the whole first half
Chelsea
Sterling's forward line is actually not too connected, Sterling himself is also a bit too lonely, there are a few chances that he should have released the ball, but he kept on carrying the ball, in fact, there is a Gallagher at the back who can insert a shot, Sterling's vision of the game and his teammates are obviously not particularly good understanding.
The second half began with an immediate mishap.
Chelsea
Took the ball in the backfield and tried to drive forward when Nottingham Forest blocked near the halfway line
Chelsea
Defender Disasi passed to Caicedo, this ball has a Gallagher deliberately missed to start to want to forward, he was trying to play with Caicedo want to play a match, but Caicedo seems to be unprepared, stop the ball missed, the result is that Nottingham Forest grabbed the ball to counterattack, Awoniyi take the ball forward and cross the ball, substitutes Elanga rushed up to the 16 yards to pick up the ball. Elanga took the ball from the 16-yard box and shot it straight through.
Chelsea
goalmouth (in soccer)
Nottingham Forest has actually found
Chelsea
Weaknesses, that is, the lack of organization and propulsion at the back, and the function of pulling back in front of the field to work with the back is not strong enough, so they started to let the attacking players go up to press at the beginning of the second half, and as a result
Chelsea
greatly affected
later on
Chelsea
replace with something from
Manchester City football club
Palmer and Mudryk, who were bought in, had some good attacks for a while but were never able to generate enough effective shots, and the best chance came at 82 when Sterling burst in from the right and passed to the center, which Nottingham Forest couldn't quite close down, and Jakcson was on hand in front of the goal to take it, but he didn't count the pace correctly, resulting in the final kick from six yards in front of the goal, and the final
Chelsea
They lost 0-1 at home to Nottingham Forest.
