LW – Eden Hazard
Hazard was simply outstanding last season, and is frightening though that the Belgium winger is expected to get better and better.
ST – Diego Costa
The former Atletico Madrid star has new competition from Radamel Falcao to contend with – who looked hungry to silence his critics during pre-season – but Costa is without question the most feared of Chelsea’s forwards.
There were doubts for his inclusion today after hobbling off with a hamstring injury in their last pre-season game, but Mourinho has confirmed he’s primed for action.
RW – Willian
Despite lacking influence in the final third, it is the Brazilian’s work-rate that looks set to continue to keep January signing Juan Cuadrado watching on in frustration from the sidelines.
