Roberto De Zerbi has explained their plan to target Trevor Chalobah and Marc Cucurella in one-on-one situations in Brighton's 4-1 victory over Chelsea on Saturday afternoon.
The Seagulls came out of the blocks flying and took the lead within the opening five minutes through Leandro Trossard. Brighton, who could've scored twice before the first goal, pinned Chelsea back and added a second on 14 minutes as Ruben Loftus-Cheek put the ball through his own-net to double the hosts' advantage.
It was a rampant first period from the Seagulls, and they scored a third on the stroke of half-time when Chalobah also netted an own-goal. Chelsea got back into the game when Kai Havertz pulled one back just after the break, but that's as good as it got for the west London side.
