After the break for the national teams, Blues increasingly dominant after the draw with Burnley: it could have been goleada. Three goals are canceled for the Londoners
The break did well for Chelsea: 3-0 at Leicester to put behind the 1-1 at home with Burnley before the international break. The success of the Blues, increasingly alone at the top of the Premier League, is a test of strength and a warning to the championship: great performance, players acclaimed by the fans in tow, Thomas Tuchel who smiles broadly and hugs his players at the final whistle. Leicester, challenged by their people before half-time, watch helplessly as Chelsea dominate: a lesson in football and motivation at the Foxes, nailed in the middle of the table, perhaps disturbed by the rumors of a Brendan Rodgers on Manchester United’s radar. The performance of this season and the sudden drops in performance – even in the two previous years – open the debate on the real consistency of the Northern Irish manager.
One two
–
Chelsea’s approach to the match is one of the keys to this success. The 3-4-2-1 of the Blues immediately puts the reckless 3-4-3 of Leicester on the ropes. Rodgers hands over the midfield to his opponent: fatal mistake. The 1-0 matures in the 14th minute with Rudiger, the fourth goal at the Foxes: the German defender’s head shot on Chilwell’s corner is splendid. The 2-0 is inspired by James and concretized by the usual spectacular Kanté, after an incredible extension and a blow from the left.
Epilogue
–
In the second half, with Iheanacho and Maddison replacing Lookman and Barnes, the Foxes are more consistent. Mendy replies with an extraordinary gesture to Amartey’s stone and silences Vardy on the header of the Leicester center forward. As expected, Chelsea drop the trio with Pulisic in the 71st minute. He could have finished in the goleada: goals from Hudson-Odoi, James and again Pulisic canceled for offside.
