Mauricio Pochettino will be tasked with keeping his players cool, calm and collected as they return to Premier League action tomorrow.

The drama at Stamford Bridge captured everyone last night, as they won 4-3 in the dying moments against Manchester United.

The magic of Cole Palmer helped cover up the cracks of what was a particularly disappointing defensive display from the Blues.

Here’s The Chelsea Chronicle’s Predicted XI for Sunday’s game against Sheffield United.

Chelsea Predicted XI

Djorjde Petrovic remains the only fit goalkeeper at this stage, and will start again away from home against the Blades.

Despite not being at his best at the back in the week, Malo Gusto will continue his run of starts with another at right-back.

Next to him will be Axel Disasi, keeping up his run of being available all season for the Blues.

Instead of being partnered by Benoit Badiashile again, it will be Thiago Silva following the 23-year-old’s poor display against United.

At left-back, Marc Cucurella will continue his return to form at left-back in the face of a Ben Chilwell injury.

Enzo Fernandez was an underrated star in the win against United last night, and will continue in the middle of the park.

Despite one of his weaker displays yesterday, Moises Caicedo will remain in the side that are looking to make it back-to-back wins.

Ahead of them, Conor Gallagher will captain the side fresh off finding the net against United and Andre Onana.

Attack

The easiest pick of the lot right now is Cole Palmer, and he will look to add to his brilliant form with another performance on Sunday.

On the other side, Raheem Sterling will come back into the side in favour of Mykhailo Mudryk.

Down the middle, Nicolas Jackson will continue and look to maintain his run of performing well since the African Cup of Nations.
