Not sure if anyone else saw this. They just analysed the goals we conceded from long balls recently.
Benitez highlighted the body position of our back 4 and that Francis took up his defence position too wide. Mentioned Liverpool looking to exploit it earlier in the game before the goal.
I’ll be honest it’s not something I’ve ever noticed before and I doubt anyone else on here has too. Without wanting to reopen the coaching debate too much, but it was really interesting to listen to the insight of such an experienced top level coach.
Expect Chelsea to try a few long balls over the top on Saturday now
