Chelsea fans' preferred line-up against Brighton: And now back to the senior team

Enzo Maresca has done an excellent job of rotating the Chelsea squad, already giving minutes to every single first-team player in just eight games, with the exception of third-choice goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli and the long-term injured Reece James. Maresca has essentially put together an A team and a B team from the squad, with the latter group starting in UEFA Conference League and League Cup games and the former starting in the league.

Therefore, there should be a rotation back to the first choice starters today, and the WAGNH community agrees without a shadow of a doubt. Nine of the eleven starters received at least 80 percent of the votes, the tenth still achieved a two-thirds majority. Noni Madueke is the only one who obviously has doubts with 57%.

Of those not elected, Christopher Nkunku (38%) and Tosin Adarabioyo (45%) received significant numbers of votes. Pedro Neto (19%) and João Félix (10%) were the only other players with double figures.
