Graham Potter will have a lot to think about in his first Chelsea selection against RB Salzburg. Not only will he want to set out early indicators as to how he might have his team playing, but he will need the experience to get his new side through a tough task.
Having inherited a team that lost the first group game, and now approaching his own first-ever Champions League match, there's a lot on the line. Although not beating their opponents wouldn't be the end, it is unnecessary pressure for Potter who will already be dizzy with moving parts at Chelsea.
This could mean that experience is a go-to for his first game, much like Tuchel in his first Chelsea match - less than 30 hours after joining the club. Potter has had longer to prepare but the decisions are arguably much bigger. This will be how Potter's Chelsea are judged for the next two weeks as an international break adds further complications to the Englishman's start at Stamford Bridge.
