UEFA.com reporter’s view
Chelsea’s group success was founded on a solid back line – no one went longer than their 355 minutes from the start of the tournament without conceding – and, by and large, they took their chances. This should be a more balanced side than last season, with quality and depth in every position; and with Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Hakim Ziyech still settling, there is surely more to come.
