Sánchez has a clean sheet for Chelsea every 3.04 games.

Over the last two decades we’ve had

Arrizabalaga, Cech, Courtois, Cudicini, Mendy mainly as the GKs

Game per clean sheet average for those are

Cudicini = 2.14
Mendy = 2.14
Cech = 2.17
Courtois = 2.66
Arrizabalaga = 2.81

Back to back clean sheets.

Nearly a clean sheet every three matches…

I’ll post how that compares to other past Chelsea players very soon

I still don’t know whether Maresca was trying to ‘protect’ these young talents or simply didn’t study them well enough. Every fan knew Andrey Santos is at his best as a 6, not an 8. Yet from the moment he arrived, Maresca pushed him into the 8 role as Enzo’s cover. Credit to Andrey for proving exactly why that shouldn’t have been the case.

Now we know he'll be a massive cover for Caicedo.

Chelsea were average in possession so they needed to be strong defensively. The best compliment you can pay Andrey Santos is that you could not tell that Caicedo wasn’t playing in that regard. Top defensive performance from Andrey. He provides a lot of value to Chelsea’s squad.

Disappointing to see that Kendry Páez hasn’t started in any of Strasbourg’s last 6 games.

Today he was left out of the squad.

His last start was his best performance for Strasbourg so far as he’s still working through some rustiness.

Amazing to think that there are still fans out there who’d scream for Maresca to be sacked after any loss

The man has proven time and again that he’s the right man to take us forward

Chelsea fans are the hardest to please

The record of the last two managers to reach 50 Premier League games in charge for Chelsea.

Maresca:

W - 27
D - 11
L - 12

All comps: 81 games. Win ratio 63%

Tuchel:

W - 28
D - 12
L - 10

All comps: 100 games. Win ratio 63%

Santos is a better 6 than box to box and Caicedo is a better box to box than 6.

Agree? 💭

I blame myself for thinking Spurs would do anything today. they are genuinely so horrible to watch from defence to attack

“Garnacho will divide the squad”

He was the first player up clapping the Chelsea fans even though he was on the bench. 👏

Aside Crystal Palace, no team has kept a clean sheet against Chelsea this season

Tuesday evening will be interesting…
