The Debrief: Rampant Reece inspires as Blues dominate but fall short in
front of goal

29 Apr 2022


We take a closer look at the statistical analysis and main talking points
from last night's score draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford…

It was a pleasing performance once again on the road for Thomas Tuchel and
his players, who dominated large spells of the contest in the north-west
and created plenty of openings against the Red Devils on their own turf.


Yet our superiority on the evening failed to translate into an advantage
on the scoreboard as Marcos Alonso's superb volley was swiftly cancelled
out by Cristiano Ronaldo scoring his first league goal against us.


Perhaps a 1-1 final score was not surprising given this fixture is now the
most drawn game in Premier League history, with our latest stalemate the
25th between the sides.


== A tale of two teams ==


In contrast to United's low block and compact shape, the Blues were
expansive and utilised the full width of the extended Old Trafford pitch.
Wing-backs Reece James and Marcos Alonso pushed high and wide to stretch
the game, force the hosts into covering more ground and offer a regular
attacking option.

In contrast, United played much deeper and more compact


It was no surprise that our goal on the hour mark came with both wide
players involved, James supplying one of his 10 crosses into the box for
Kai Havertz to flick onwards and Alonso perfectly placed to smack in one
of those sweet volleys he has perfected over the years.


Prior to that deadlock-breaking strike, our attackers had cut frustrated
figures in the final third with a lack of precision, composure and
ruthlessness.

Havertz spurned a couple of decent opportunities, while James hit the
outside of the post later in the game on a night where we had 21 shots to
United's six, but less than a third of those were on target.


== Reece's impact ==


James missed the weekend win over West Ham but was back in the starting 11
and deployed once again at wing-back, unleashed to cause maximum damage to
United's faltering and confidence-lacking defence, which had shipped nine
goals in the previous three games.


The England international was a constant menace and topped most of our
attacking metrics, including for touches, crosses, touches in the
opposition box, take-ons and tackles. He also played a big part in the
fact that 40 per cent of our attacking moves and 29 per cent of our shots
on goal were directed from the right.

His energy, intensity and enthusiasm throughout the 90 minutes, as well as
that level of class and quality, made sure he was the outstanding
performer on the field. Unfortunately, that performance didn't quite have
the final layer of gloss applied as his left-footed curler clipped the
outside of the far post late on with David De Gea beaten.


Nevertheless, James's return after missing so many weeks of the season is
a welcome boost for Tuchel's side, with the Blues boss commenting
afterwards that our title challenge may have endured a little longer had
the 22-year-old not been absent for two months in mid-winter.


== In control ==


In central midfield, our complimentary duo of N'Golo Kante and Jorginho
ran the game. The Italian was at his metronomic best in dictating the
tempo and tide of possession, registering eight per cent possession just
by himself as well as 76 completed passes, both game-high figures.

Jorginho's pass map against United showed how omipresent he was


Importantly, he was a defensive shield too in guarding against the Man
United counter-attack, with the visitors enjoying so much territorial
advantage, attempting four tackles and making three successful
interceptions.


With Jorginho plugging holes, Kante was handed licence to roam forward
and it was our number seven's perfectly-weighted pass through (having
been set free by his midfield partner) that teed up a great chance for
Havertz in the first half, with the striker firing straight at De Gea.


== Rationalising the regret ==


Unfortunately, there was regret at the what-might-have-been's as the Blues
travelled back to the capital late after the match. Unusually for the
league's second-top scorers on the road, our profligacy proved costly and
the winning away run was subsequently brought to an end.

The game's xG rating was heavily in our favour


As the xG map from the game indicates, our chances in and around the
18-yard box were many and varied, with the expected goals weighted almost
five times in our favour. Yet a combination of De Gea, the woodwork and
fluffed lines meant we scored just the one.


Nevertheless, the point gained ensures United now cannot finish above us
in the league, strengthening our position in third place with five matches
to play. We are also closer to the summit at this stage of the season than
at any time since we last won the title in 2017.

在泰晤士河旁一處林地空間上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的記憶都離開了我，我像落入迷離
幻境中一般，因為雀爾西是伊露維塔兒女中最美的一位。她身上那襲藍色的衣裳宛如
萬里無雲的晴空，她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星閃爍的天空；她的斗篷上繡著金色的花
朵，她的頭髮漆黑如暮色中的陰影。她的榮光與美好，就像樹葉上的光芒，像是潺潺
流水，像是這迷離世界上方閃爍的繁星；她臉上有閃亮的光輝。
