Use pace to our advantage
The possible front three of Lallana, Coutinho, and Sterling have a lot of things going for them, however, winning a header – or any aerial duel for that matter – against the likes of Terry, Cahill, Ivanovic, or Zouma is unlikely. Our best hope of creating openings will come from exploiting the defence’s biggest weakness, their lack of pace. Rewind to the Capital One Cup semi-final earlier in the campaign, and one of the abiding memories from the game was the fun that Sterling seemed to have running straight through the Blues’ usually watertight back line.
