Excellent tactical review of Brighton-Chelsea, Seun.

Fantastic review and thank you Seun. There is a little doubt that the utilisation of the fullback in this way has made a huge difference.

My only worry is that as good as Cucurella has been stepping into midfield, he continues to leave space behind him as sometimes forgets that that is his basic number one role. There have been times that he has been found wandering on the other side of the pitch leaving huge voids behind him and putting other defenders under pressure. I think the formation is one that should be pursued going forward but is Cucurella the right man for the role as good as he played in the last half dozen games.
