Chelsea vs Manchester United,Rosinier deployed a 4231 formation, Delap leading the attack, Palmer behind him, Estevez and Neto on the wings, Caicedo and Enzo paired as midfield anchors, Gusto, Wesley Fofana, Hato, Cucurella forming the four-man defense, Robert Santos as goalkeeper, starting lineup valued at 652 million euros.Carrick deployed a 4231 formation, Sesko leading the attack, B. Fernandes behind him, Cunha and Mbombo on the wings, Mainoo and Casemiro paired as midfield anchors, Luke Shaw, Heven, Mazraoui, Dalot forming the four-man defense, Ramens as goalkeeper, starting lineup valued at 423 million euros.

In this match, Chelsea dominated at home but couldn't score, with a possession rate as high as 60%, firing 21 shots, but only 3 were on target; Manchester United scored the winning goal with just one shot on target throughout the game, a stark contrast. Rosinier was also helpless, tactics were set, but the attack lacked potency, Chelsea's 21 shots couldn't yield a single goal.

Personal view, Chelsea's morale and spirit have already dissipated, because the club's philosophy is business-oriented, trailing the Champions League zone by 4 points after playing first, the fight for fifth place is precarious. If Chelsea fails to secure a Champions League spot next season, some star players already dissatisfied with the club's recruitment may want to leave even more, as players who don't desire championships aren't good players, the Blues thus become a Premier League team focused on business.
