While the attack is yet to fully find its shooting boots, there is certainly a new dimension to the way they’re building play.
Chelsea have been in great form since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel, who is slowly but steadily implementing his style of play on this Blues squad.
Tuchel’s side have won 7 points out of a possible 9 since his arrival, while also keeping 3 clean sheets.
Chelsea fan and Twitter user NomiFooty has wonderfully illustrated how the players are starting to attack through the middle, rather than rely on crosses:
“It feels good to finally see the Chelsea team playing through the middle & it’s all down to the excellent movement of their front players.”

“This was such a beautiful move and it should’ve resulted in a goal. We just need to improve our performance in the final third,” Nomifooty wrote.
