The Champions League winning front three for Chelsea appear to be no more. Timo Werner has already left the club, Kai Havertz is there but still struggling for consistency - let alone possibly moving in the summer - and Mason Mount is back in midfield.
Just 18 months on from the famous win in Porto and a first choice Chelsea team looks very different. It's a different shape, there's a new manager in charge and the owners have changed too. They do still play in blue. Other than that the Blues will be virtually unrecognisable from the team that lifted their second European Cup crown in 2021.
Reece James and Ben Chilwell still get into a best XI as full-backs rather than wing-backs and Edouard Mendy is floating about but currently doesn't have the confidence of Graham Potter, or the fitness. N'Golo Kante is a shadow of the player he was on that night against Manchester City.
