Calum McFarlane has explained why he shifted the Chelsea formation to a back-three in the second half of Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Man City.
The caretaker head coach set "exceptional" Chelsea up in the 4-2-3-1 formation favoured by the departed head coach Enzo Maresca, but was rewarded for switching to a 3-4-3 at half-time when Enzo Fernandez scored a stoppage-time equaliser to earn the Blues a point at the Etihad.
