Last night, Chelsea had an impressive comeback against Burnley. They were conceded by Wilson Odobert in the 15th minute. But Raheem Sterling’s excellent performance then helped the Blues return in time.

In addition to Sterling, midfielder Conor Gallagher, Chelsea’s captain, also played much better than Blues fans imagined. Statistics page Sofascore shows that Gallagher had one assist against Burnley. This young talent is especially effective in hand-to-hand disputes. Accordingly, no Chelsea player has won 8 times in 1v1 situations like Gallagher.

In addition, Gallagher is also very diligent in participating in the defense phase. He had 4 accurate tackles, 2 successful cuts and 94% passing accuracy. Gallagher’s excellence helped Chelsea’s midfield easily control the match, especially in the second half.

A 4-1 victory over Burnley helped Chelsea rise to 11th place in the rankings. They have had two consecutive wins in the last two rounds and that is a positive sign for Mauricio Pochettino and his team.
