With speculation swirling around Mauricio Pochettino’s future at Chelsea, attention turns to Ruben Amorim emerging as a frontrunner. Amorim’s tactical acumen and preferred 3-4-2-1 system could rejuvenate the squad and maximize the talents of several players already at Stamford Bridge.
His unique style of play can be a huge plus for the Blues as they have a talented bunch of lads. These players, under right leadership, can harm any opposition when called upon. However, all this will be depending upon the decision of the hierarchy on the future of Mauricio Pochettino.
How Amorim can build up his Chelsea squad?
The Portuguese coach is known for his back three with central defenders slotting into wide areas as well. This can be bolstered by the following players.
Reece James, Wesley Fofana, and Levi Colwill: Amorim’s system relies on a solid back-three, with James potentially transitioning to a wider center-back role to accommodate his attacking prowess. Colwill, adept in a similar role at Brighton, and Fofana, if injury-free, could form a formidable defensive trio.
Malo Gusto and Ben Chilwell: Gusto possesses the attributes of an ideal wing-back under Amorim. Meanwhile Chilwell could also thrive in this role, providing options and depth on the flanks.
Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez: Amorim’s midfield demands presence at both ends of the pitch, and Caicedo and Fernandez could develop further under his guidance. The duo can forming a dynamic pivot in midfield.
Cole Palmer and Christopher Nkunku: Amorim favors inside forwards who can cut inside and impact play in half spaces. Palmer and Nkunku, comfortable in the number 10 role, could excel in these positions, providing creativity and goal-scoring threat.
Amorim’s potential arrival could inject fresh energy into Chelsea, addressing tactical deficiencies and maximizing the squad’s potential. With the right guidance, players like James, Gusto, Caicedo, and Palmer could blossom into key components of Amorim’s system, offering Chelsea a path to success in both domestic and European competitions. All he will need is a remarkable striker to resolve the goalscoring problems of the Blues.
