5 things we can expect from Chelsea this season
Bertrand Traore will play a bigger role this season

 

Chelsea is one of the clubs where the transition from an academy player to starting XI is extremely difficult. The last player to have achieved this successfully was John Terry. Mourinho is extremely slow in integrating the youth and his sacking is a blessing in disguise for fringe players. There are players like Ruben Loftus Cheek and Bertrand Traore with high quality waiting for prolonged spells. Both of them looked impressive in the few chances they got under Guus Hiddink.

Having not signed any defender until now, we can expect one of Nathaniel Chalobah, Kennedy or Ola Aina to play a bigger role this season. Almost all the youngsters shone in the pre-season games and it is highly likely for Conte to give a few of them a lengthy spell this season.
