Now, this is nothing different to what Maresca did, we\u2019ve seen Michael Carrick do it for Manchester United. Lots of teams build up like this. But what\u2019s really interesting is the position of the full-backs in this setup.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve got Gusto at right-back, who\u2019s part of the back three in the build up, and you\u2019ve got your left-back, Hato, who comes and joins Caicedo as one of the double pivots.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we\u2019ve highlighted with Liam Rosenior\u2019s Chelsea, they always want to go through the middle. The ball comes central to Caicedo, they lose it there. This is 30 seconds into the game. Something that we saw a lot against Brentford, this happened all through the first half against West Ham.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, the Blues were able to change things drastically at half time, both in terms of personnel and shape. They got into gear and scored 3 in the second half to run out winners by full time.<\/p>\n<p>Rosenior, once again, picked a bad starting team then made the perfect adjustments to it.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>You can see Carragher\u2019s analysis of the full game in the clip embedded here:<\/p>\n<p>In other news\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Alejandro Garnacho struggled in Chelsea\u2019s game against West Ham, and at full time Gary Neville had some big <a href=\"https:\/\/chelsea.news\/2026\/02\/neville-questions-chelsea-winger-horror-show-difficult\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:questions about his future and his form.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">questions about his future and his form.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A quiet January in terms of purchases was of course not what fans were looking for \u2013 but it does potentially open up Chelsea for another big summer.
