Quarterly Review: 3 things that have gone right for Chelsea in the 2016/17 season so far

Player Selection

Chelsea’s player selection has also been bang on.

Several players like Hazard, Matic and Cahill have all looked poor at points over the last year – but Conte has persevered and managed to get the best out of them; and when they are on form there are few better options in the whole of Europe.

Conte has found a team that fits his system and works perfectly; and that normally takes several months to find. That could be the difference for Chelsea this season.
