CHE Vs WOL Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: A new era beckons for Chelsea under new tutelage.
Frank Lampard’s departure from Chelsea was a testament to Roman Abramovich’s ruthlessness as an owner. You might be the top goal scorer and one of the biggest names to have played for the club but if things aren’t going your way, Roman will wield the axe on you.
While Lampard’s sacking was termed as brutal by some, others saw it as a decision which was on the anvils given Chelsea’s form. With the club dwindling all the way down into 9th spot in the league, it was only a matter of time before Lampard was asked to part company with the side.
And the club has wasted no time in appointing his replacement with Thomas Tuchel being announced as the new manager on Wednesday.
CHE Vs WOL Fantasy Probable Winner
Buoyed by a change of leadership, Chelsea should manage to do enough to pull off a win today.

Goal-Keeper
Given Chelsea’s regressing form infront of the goal, Rui Patricio will be quietly confident of recording a cleansheet come today.
Defenders
He finds company in Nelson Semedo, a player who has provided his side with unstinted support from the right flank.
Chelsea on the other hand will also see their fullback pairing be inducted in our setup. In Ben Chilwell who has the four assists and Reece James who has scored this season, the club has two imperious English wide defenders.
Midfielders
At a time when many looked to have downed tools in the tailend of Lampard’s reign, Mason Mount waged a lone battle. He scored in each of Lampard’s final two matches, a midfielder who makes for a must have pick.
Christian Pulisic looks set to be permanently utilised on the left with Lampard gone, a role which could finally see him revert to his best. Hakim Ziyech’s assists in the FA Cup see him be accompanied by Matteo Kovacic.
Ruben Neves meanwhile makes a way into out team from the visiting setup.
Strikers
Wolverhampton’s selections are completed by top scorer Pedro Neto who has the four goals and three assists.
Tammy Abraham scored a hattrick at the weekend, one which should earn him a start today.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Mount’s goal against Leicester City makes him our captain while Neves is the vice-captain.
