As much as Chelsea were excellent, Everton didn’t help themselves in West London on Saturday night.

Manager Ronald Koeman switched to a back three in a bid to match Conte’s Blues, given their incredible record since the Italian altered the system, but it didn’t work for the Everton boss.

Although the system didn’t work, the Toffees defenders can hardly cover themselves in glory in what was a wretched display from the second-best defensive side in the division.

Nevertheless, matching up against Chelsea is one thing, but taking your players away from their comfort zone against the in-form team in the league is another and, based on their defensive performance, the result, and the manner of the defeat, it was a decision that he got wrong.
