The distance between any lines is too far. Suppose you were aware of how difficult chelsea to build the counter attack. There is no sync between the players. Once the ball was moving forward and there was no player who was helping to bring the ball to the opponent's goalkeeper. The ball is always stuck at the middle of field. This is the problem that must be fixed by chelsea. Anyone who watched chelsea will have made complaints about how slow the counter attack by chelsea. It's not the same as when it was hazard's era when counter attack could go very fast.

It's just like chelsea's attacking players are so lazy as fuck. These players lack ability in dribbling the ball but they keep dribbling and lose the ball to the opponents. I dunno what thing already told by them but it as giving very bad impact.
Chelsea was playing individually. As you can see that instead of trying to give a pass to the team mates and prefer to choose to dribble. Mudryk, enzo, kai and many more are very often dribbling the ball and then lose it.

Chelsea are not a counter attacking team they are a attacking team that has the most possession of the ball. Dean Potter has turned them into a counter attacking team but the players are not setup correctly to counter attack because they are not used to doing it. Dean Potter should have played attacking football like Chelsea did before he took over and then change the tactics in the pre season for next year because he would have more time to develop a system and allow the players to adapt at the moment they are trying to adapt in the middle of a season and every time they lose a game because they are trying to adapt they lose confidence.

Chelsea were a defensive team under Mourinho but Tuchel tried to change that into a attacking team and it worked for a long time before he was fired but since Dean Potter has not improved by going more defensive and trying to counter attack.

Never heard the name dean potter has become a coach of chelsea. Did you mean graham potter?

As far as i know that if when chelsea was under dimatteo and conte. Chelsea was always using defensive - counter attack strategy and it worked in the past when chelsea was able to achieve its first UCL title. Chelsea just like loses its identity under potter as a team with fast counterattack - offensive strategy.

My first time seeing that there was a club that used 9-1 mechanism and that was chelsea under potter when it was against leeds. Chelsea under potter was rarely making goal from open play.
