Wesley Fofana reveals secret "plan" that helped Chelsea beat Leeds United.

 The defender revealed the secret tactics that helped the Blues secure their second win of the year against Leeds United. 

Chelsea defender, Wesley Fofana has revealed the secret weapon Chelsea employed to beat Leeds United. 

The Blues had been without a win throughout February and were looking to get crucial three points. Under-fire coach, Graham Potter needed a win to save his Chelsea career in a game that had looked to be his last. 

While many Chelsea fans were surprised to taste victory after a winless drought, Wesley Fofana who netted the only goal of the game has revealed the secret to the Blues' win on Saturday. 

As quoted by Football.London, Fofana revealed the Blues had perfected their game plan in training, by working  on set pieces:

"Not nerves but excitement for the win, the fans and the club." Fofana stated after the game. 

 "It is a difficult situation but everyone in the club pushes for a win. Yesterday in training we worked on set-pieces and today I scored one. It's a good feeling."

The Blues will return to Champions League action on Tuesday night with the confidence needed to turn things around after their 1-0 defeat in the first leg. Hopefully, their recent win gives them momentum needed to secure a win and seal their place in the competition.

Magical display and goal from Nicolas Jackson that shows he's Chelsea's next Didier Drogba.

 Nicolas Jackson was on target for the Blues in their 4-1 trashing of Burnley yesterday.  Raheem Sterling takes the ball from midfield and turns around on his marker to leave him biting dust. Once in the final third he finds Cole Palmer in the box, who calmly lays it to Nicolas Jackson right in front of goal. The striker does very well in controlling the ball, adjusting his footing, and striking it for Chelsea’s fourth goal against Burnley. Comparisons have been made with Nicolas Jackson's stats for the Blues and that of Legend, Didier Drogba. Jackson's first goal for the club was a Drogba-esque one.  However, this performance and display from Jackson vs Burnley will convince you that he's just Chelsea's next hit striker after Didier Drogba: VIDEO: Chelsea may have just found their next Didier Drogba in Nicolas Jackson.
