Ivan Toney starts, Ronaldo decision - Thomas Tuchel’s plan C Chelsea attack after £350m spend

Chelsea need to have some major plans up their sleeves after what happened over the weekend in game week 3 of the 2022/23 Premier League season.

The Blues, who were major favourites to pick up three points at Elland Road over the weekend, failed to capitalise on the opportunity as Jesse Marsch's side hit Thomas Tuchel's outfit for three goals with no reply. Kai Havertz yet again failed to capitalise on the opportunity to fill in at the number 9 position with Raheem Sterling the only attacker to come out of the Leeds game with any praise.

As a result of this latest setback, Todd Boehly is set to ramp up his transfer plans not only in attack amid Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang talks but in defence and maybe even midfield still. Manager Tuchel, who didn't want to rely on the transfer window solely to fix the obvious issues in the team, looked closer to home at what can be done internally to improve fortunes on the pitch before external factors come into play.
