Conte should give these 3 Chelsea players a chance in the FA Cup against Man United

Nathan Ake

Nathan Ake was recalled from a successful loan spell at Bournemouth to provide Conte with another defensive option, most likely as an alternative to Marcos Alonso at left wing-back.

However, the 22-year-old has only featured in the FA Cup for the Blues, starting the fourth round victory at home to Brentford and the fifth round success at Wolves.

The Dutch Under-21 international made ten appearances for the Cherries in the first half of the season and received much praise for his performances, yet it doesn’t look like he’s going to get much a chance at Stamford Bridge this term.

Nonetheless, if he does indeed get a third start of the campaign for Chelsea on Monday, Ake will have to perform well to prove to Conte of his capabilities in the first team.
