A Chelsea Fan's Perspective on Match Operations Up to Round 5 (Focusing on Possession).1

(!!!This also applies to Man Utd!!!) There are opinions like, "Chelsea gets more points in games with low possession this season," and "They can only play counter-attacking football," and I also thought, "That really seems to be the case." However, after reading an article titled "Is Premier League possession football on the way out?" by a reporter named Umir Irfan (from BBC), I've come to see this phenomenon from a different perspective, so I'd like to share a part of this great article with you all! According to the article, in the first 5 games of the season, Chelsea recorded 51.4% possession when drawing, 34.5% when winning, and 67.2% when losing. Chelsea scored within 7 minutes in 4 consecutive games since the start of the season. This means Chelsea has switched to a defensive-first, counter-attacking style of play after scoring an early goal within 7 minutes. With this operational style, possession tends to be low, and games where they score first are more likely to be won. Character limitㅠㅠ
