Chelsea

Antonio Conte’s side responded to an embarrassing 3-0 defeat on September 24th against Arsenal, racking up a team record 12 consecutive Premier League victory.

According to Liam Corless of the English outlet the Mirror, Chelsea will use Oscar’s cash to entice the attacking midfielder. The Brazilian was sold to Chinese giants Shanghai SIPG.

Blues will try to fend off rivals Man United for the Colombian signature, but does Conte’s 3-4-3 suitable for James?

Attacking wise, James prefers being on the right flank to have the freedom to roam, create and support the striker, where he’s very destructive.

Breaking into Chelsea’s high-powered starting Xl would be a problem for James as the right side is absorbed by two quality players: Willian and Pedro. The Spaniard ousted the Brazilian and has been one of the Blues attacking threats.
