Trippier's revenge

Kieran Trippier will form at Atlético's right back against Chelsea. The rojiblanco side will return to play in the United Kingdom and will be able to face Tuchel's team after failing to do so in the first leg played in Bucharest. The Atlético footballer could not play due to the sanction of the English Federation. From the Madrid entity the punishment was understood as a way to favor the interests of Chelsea, since at the time of suspension there was no England game and there was the first leg of the Champions League against the London team.

Trippier can now play at Stamford Bridge and it is sure to be a different match for him. Perfectly settled at Atlético, the 30-year-old winger is a very important player for Simeone, who has had problems supplying him in the games he has not been able to be in. He did not play the first leg against Chelsea Nor was he in LaLiga against Getafe, in the first round, Alavés, Eibar, Valencia, Cádiz, Celta, Granada, both against Levante and Villarreal. He returned to Real Madrid and later also played against Athletic and Getafe, and showed the same competitive level as always.

Trippier allowed Marcos Llorente to play in his position, more advanced, and the team does not stop looking for the English when he comes up for his band. Against Getafe he lacked precision in the centers to the area. During his absence, Cholo tried Marcos Llorente on that right side, Vrsaljko also played, which injuries have weighed down. Giménez and even Correa came to occupy that demarcation.

Trippier will be important against Chelsea. He is a veteran and knows well how English teams operate. Con contract until June 2022, the winger will try to defend well and create danger to the Chelsea defense. Trippier can take revenge for his sanction by the English Federation by eliminating the whole of the Premier.
