Posts six clearances
Lacroix registered two tackles (one won), six clearances and one interception in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Arsenal. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 58th minute.
Analysis: Lacroix registered two tackles (one won), two blocks, six clearances and one interception across his 90 minutes in Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Arsenal, continuing his record of playing every minute of Chelsea's first three Premier League matches. The French centre-back has now accumulated 18 clearances, eight tackles and three interceptions since the start of the season, numbers that reflect the physical demands of his role as the primary aerial presence in Chelsea's defensive structure and establish him as one of the most dependable starters in the squad.
Makes eight clearances
Lacroix registered one shot (zero on goal) in Sunday's 4-3 victory against Brighton.
Analysis: Lacroix played the full 90 minutes in the middle of Chelsea's back three and was particularly busy as Brighton applied increased pressure after halftime. His eight clearances led Chelsea, underlining his ability to deal with danger inside the defensive third. Although Chelsea conceded three times, Lacroix's physicality and aerial presence should continue to make him an important option in manager Xabi Alonso's three-man defense.
