If Graham Potter has much time to plan ahead in his whirlwind start to life as Chelsea manager then there's one area that will be pressing him the most.
In terms of the squad he has inherited, the clearest matter to sort out during the weeks off when players are international duty will be a decision as to how he sees the shape of his midfield progressing in the short and long-term future.
During his first match in-charge, which is not something to take as gospel that it will continue, Potter used Jorginho as a deep base and had Mateo Kovacic and Mason Mount ahead of him as box-to-box No.8s. It was a set up not used specifically by Thomas Tuchel although the personnel remained similar.
