The Debrief: Full-backs' attacking instincts prove decisive as Blues rack
up record shot count

06 Feb 2022


Chelsea squeezed past Plymouth in the FA Cup fourth round at Stamford
Bridge on Saturday, and our statistical analysis underlines the impact our
scorers had and puts the Blues' shot count into historical context…

Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso got our goals, the latter's winner
coming in extra-time after the Pilgrims of League One had taken a shock
lead early on. Chelsea spent much of the rest of the game on the front
foot, as you would expect, but it still needed a late penalty save from
Kepa to stop an entertaining tie going to spot-kicks.


== Full-backs to the fore ==


It was not just in front of goal where Azpilicueta and Alonso made their
mark. The Spanish duo were crucial in much of our build-up play, too, as
we utilised the wide areas to try and exploit the space between Plymouth's
three central defenders and their wing-backs.


In the first half, Malang Sarr was at left-back, and even though he still
saw a good chunk of the ball, most of our best work came down the
right-hand side of the pitch. There, Azpilicueta, Hakim Ziyech and Mason
Mount ganged up to pick holes in the Plymouth rearguard, creating
overloads and crossing dangerously.

The skipper spent most of the game in opposition territory


Between them, that trio were in possession for almost a third of the first
half (31.8 per cent). Mount and Ziyech registered six key passes between
them, including the former's assist for Azpilicueta's inventive finish.
Ziyech was successful with four take-ons in the first half alone,
eventually racking up seven by full-time. That was five more than anybody
else.

Having scored the first goal under Thomas Tuchel, Azpi did likewise with
Arno Michels and Zsolt Low overseeing the team pitchside in the head
coach's absence


== Off the bench and into the thick of it ==


Nobody spent more time in possession from half-time onwards than Alonso.
Indeed, only three players finished with more touches than his 109, and he
ranked fourth for passes, too.


In his 75 minutes on the pitch, Alonso recorded five shots, a figure
topped only by Ziyech (eight) and Azpilicueta (seven). It was when players
drifted infield from wide areas that we looked most threatening as we
tried to prise open the stubborn Pilgrims.


== Patience pays in front of goal ==


For long periods we laid siege to Plymouth's goal in search of first an
equaliser, and then a winner. A combination of bad finishing and great
keeping and defending kept us at bay until the 106th minute of the game,
but it was certainly not for the want of trying.


We had a remarkable 41 shots overall. That is our second highest figure
ever since Opta started collecting data in 1992. We mustered 42 against
Stoke City in a Premier League game in January 2009.


It is also the 10th-highest figure for any English team in all
competitions since Opta started collating such information. The team
joint-fourth on that list, incidentally, is Bayern Munich, who registered
43 shots on our goal during the 2012 Champions League final.


Yesterday, 29 of our attempts came from inside the box, 18 were blocked,
and a further 11 on target.

The xG map brings to life just how many shots we had


Plymouth's back five made 51 clearances between them, and 10
interceptions. In total the Pilgrims racked up 30 blocks in total.


They weren't afraid to get forward too, though, and hit the target with
five of their 11 attempts on a shot-laden afternoon in SW6.
