Emerson

One of the benefits of playing both strikers was that both Emerson and Moses could be direct as every time we got the ball wide near their box Morata & Giroud were in attacking positions on the shoulders of defenders. No surprise that Moses was man of the match given that we were four against four every time we attacked. Most of this season we have only had one player in the opposition box and only Hazard trying to carry the ball into the area.

I really like Willian but two of his failings are he doesn't get close to the main striker when we play with just one and he rarely goes beyond that striker into the penalty area. He likes to play in space but I don't think he likes going into the area where space is tighter. Personally, given that Fabregas is getting slower and slower by the game, Bakayoko is struggling, Drinkwater not fancied by Conte and Barkly seemingly lost, I wouldn't mind seeing either Willian or Pedro playing deeper next to Kante especially against the supposed weaker teams that we should be dominating in terms of possession.
