Mixed emotions stem from an evening that did not really mean a lot from a Chelsea perspective in the grand scheme of things. Champions League qualification was solved in Salzburg last week with the top spot secure, for a year filled with drama for the club this was a bizarrely low-key affair.
It certainly did not pass without any talking points. Three stand out in the 2-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday night: the change in formation, the debut of Denis Zakaria and the injury to Ben Chilwell.
It was a mostly positive evening that made it four wins out of five in the Champions League for Graham Potter, and saw Chelsea players respond well following the weekend's humbling at Brighton.
