Chelsea’s fringe players engineer league win over Southampton, rewarding manager for putting faith in them
London — A Chelsea trio stepped out of the shadows to guide their team to a win over Southampton while Manchester United continue to sit with a midfield problem that is going to be difficult to fix. Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel put his faith in some of the players on the fringes of his team and they engineered Saturday’s 3-1 win over Southampton.
The problem may not be easy to solve as United’s midfield lack players who can quickly turn defence into attack. Bruce suggested after the game that he would not be the least surprised if he got axed. “We all know the drill and what comes next,” he said after Newcastle stretched their winless start to seven games.
The South Korean did not score either in the 2-1 victory over Villa but was at the heart of a vastly improved performance by Tottenham as they ended a woeful league run.
