The Debrief: Left-flank focus and Oli on target against Villa again

29 Dec 2020


Using the data from yesterday's draw with Aston Villa, we take a
statistical look at the key aspects of the performance, highlighting our
emphasis in attacking down one flank in particular, as well as the
standout individuals…

Olivier Giroud's stooping header had the Blues in a good position at the
break at Stamford Bridge but Villa restarted brightly and got their
equaliser through Anwar El Ghazi just five minutes into the second half.


From there, both sides had chances to win it, John McGinn thumping the
crossbar for the visitors before Ben Chilwell volleyed inches wide of the
far post with practically the last kick of the game. The point in our
final game of 2020 leaves Frank Lampard's side sixth.


== Lurking down the left ==


Lampard's game plan was clearly to target Villa down the left, with
Chilwell, Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount aiming to isolate full-back
Matty Cash.

Giroud's opener came from neat play down the left


It was through this route that our goal was fashioned, with that trio
combining neatly and Giroud also involved, laying the ball off smartly
before racing into the box and stooping low to head in his 14th goal of
the season for club and country.


In fact, almost half of our attacking play was directed down the left,
with Chilwell's average position more advanced than any other Blues player
other than Mount and Pulisic. Giroud, in keeping with the striker's
responsibilities this term, dropped deeper to link up play and bring
others into the game.

Chilwell played high and wide, earning another assist


No player won more than the Frenchman's four aerial duels and only Pulisic
had more than his two shots in the game. His headed opener 11 minutes
before half-time also continued an incredible goalscoring run against the
Villans which has seen him net in each of his past seven appearances
against them.


Meanwhile, Chilwell now has four Premier League assists this season,
equalling his season-best tally.


== Blues underscore xG ==


Goals have certainly been harder to come by for the Blues in recent weeks,
perhaps a consequence of tiring legs and attacking absentees. In our first
eight Premier League games of the season, we notched 20 goals at an
average of 2.5 per game. In our second set of eight league fixtures, we've
scored 11 at a rate more than one goal per game less.


Our xG has also dropped, meaning we are creating fewer big chances in
games, though Pulisic will feel he should have hit the target with a good
first-half opportunity against the Clarets yesterday and we also recorded
over one more expected goals than our visitors from the Midlands (1.79 vs
0.7).


== Kante and Mount busy ==


In midfield, N'Golo Kante and Mount were heavily involved. The Englishman
registered a game-high eight per cent possession and had the second-most
touches on the pitch with a pass success rate of 89 per cent.

Only the two Chelsea centre-backs completed more passes than the
21-year-old and only Kante played as many key passes (3). Our number seven
was also the home side's most effective dribbler and destroyer.


== Other statistical highlights ==


Chelsea have been a threat from set-pieces this campaign and managed to
win a season-high 11 corner kicks against Villa but were unable to convert
any of them.


Jorginho and Kante won the most tackles in the game, five apiece.


Pulisic fashioned a game-high four shots at goal but two were off target
and one was blocked. In total, we had 16 goal attempts, of which five hit
the target, four were blocked and seven were inaccurate.


Since his Premier League debut in the summer of 2012, no player has scored
more headed goals in the competition than Giroud's 32. Only Robin van
Persie against Stoke City has scored in more than seven successive games
against a single opponent.
