man20cChelsea starting to look better in 4-3-3 shape now? Interesting that AVB used Sturridge and Mata on their stronger foot going wide (although Mata eventually drifted in the centre). Last year with Porto- Hulk and Varela often cut-inside with their stronger foot.

Leverkusen more organized tactically against stronger oppositions, looking forward to their match against Bayern soon.

ZolaI was at the game last night, I don't know how it looked on the TV but Leverkusen's tactic was hoof ball. They tried to use Kiessling as a battering ram. Such tactics are a bit out dated for this day and age.

The only times they looked dangerous is when they linked a pass to Schurrle from the midfield.
