Everton v Chelsea Preview | Overdue
Chelsea haven’t scored at Everton since a Jorginho penalty in August 2022, and last March’s 3-0 at the Hill Dickinson Stadium didn’t help the mood. After the 5-1 Bournemouth win, Alonso’s side finally look balanced: a back four with the ball, a 4-4-2 without it. Acheampong’s height against Everton’s set pieces, Estevão stepping into Pedro Neto’s role, and Colwill and Lacroix as a settled pairing in front of Martínez. Plus the fringe players short of minutes without Europe, Jordan Henderson’s critics, and Joe’s pick of Chelsea’s best Goodison result — the 3-2 in 2006 with Lampard, Ballack and Drogba.
