The problem for Chelsea is Manchester City have so many ways in which they can kill your chances of escaping the Etihad Stadium with anything except a defeat.
Death by a thousand passes? Not a problem. Direct into Erling Haaland? Just as lethal, as he showed in shrugging off a rising defender in Jarrad Branthwaite to score against Everton last week.
Equally as worrying for Chelsea is the blossoming partnership between Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden.
For a long time, I’ve thought De Bruyne has a picture book in his mind that only he can read.
