Chelsea is now getting ready for their final organized pre-season friendly as they get set to go to Italy tomorrow to play Udinese.

Thomas Tuchel tried out a new system throughout the game, starting with four defenders at the back as he aims to gradually shift away from the traditional three.
In retrospect, it may not be the best representation of how it may look with the current roster to try this out with a defense that is only half full and a striker who is not expected to play much next season.
Given another opportunity, it seems like the outcome would have been different, especially if the fans had seen what their new additions were capable of.
Tuchel must follow the new guidelines.
Last time, Trevoh Chalobah and Emerson were employed, with the latter being at fault for the first goal.
They are going to seem to be much more solid while defending against an obviously lesser squad now that they have Kalidou Koulibaly and Ben Chilwell, who both performed far better than others who began before of them.
Given his inability to contribute as a floating right winger the previous time out, Kai Havertz should be used up front.
Raheem Sterling, who was the only significant contributor in the first half of last week’s match, may now have more room to move to the flank, where someone like Christian Pulisic is more natural.
As N’golo Kante or Mateo Kovacic’s superior ball carrying is not yet on display in the prospective new system, there is also the chance to see how the midfield functions with one of them in the system.
It’s critical that the three-back system doesn’t frighten people away from the change since it appears to be limiting their innovation.
