Graham Potter's Chelsea plan works vs FC Salzburg but failed summer transfer creates big problem

One of the first questions put to Graham Potter in his post-FC Salzburg press conference was whether the attacking combinations on display in Austria was his his 'style of football'.

"It's not easy to create chances against this team but we did, we created a lot of good chances from good play," Potter responded. "We've had a lot of games and disruption in terms of key players missing, but they've responded really well and to go through in the Champions League, it's a fantastic effort."

Going forward, Chelsea looked superb against Salzburg – like they have on countless occasions already since Potter was appointed head coach. The attacking combinations were very quick and looked smooth. Players were interchanging positions when running forward and it looked exactly like Potter wanted in Austria.
