With Chelsea wiping the floor with the likes of Man Utd, Everton and Man City in recent weeks – West Brom will present Conte with a different challenge and set of players that he is used to.
This game, then, will need a very different type of player to what Conte has used in recent weeks, and the Italian’s team selection will undoubtedly have a very significant impact on how the game turns out.
There are a couple of players within the Chelsea squad that might not be considered first choice on Sunday, but Conte must make a change.
With that said, I believe these two players must start against West Brom.
WILLIAN
Willian has been out of the Blues first team in recently, However, his substitute role against Man City last weekend proved just how important he is going to be for Conte this season.
Willian offers something a bit different to Pedro, his stamina and pace is a bit more controlled. He is the perfect player to break through tough defences – which is exactly what West Brom will provide.
