Leads defense with six clearances
Lacroix generated one tackle (one won), six clearances and one interception in Saturday's 5-1 win over AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Lacroix totaled six clearances, one interception and one successful tackle across the full 90 minutes of Saturday's 5-1 victory. His six clearances led Chelsea's starting back line as Bournemouth generated nine shots and repeatedly applied pressure after falling behind 3-0 early in the second half. Chelsea failed to secure a clean sheet following Evanilson's fortunate goal, but Lacroix's combination of clearances, tackling and interception production provided a solid defensive fantasy return.
Benched for first time
Lacroix generated one tackle (one won) and two interceptions in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Hull City.
Analysis: Lacroix began the game against Hull among the substitutes, his first time out of the Chelsea XI this season. Given that he had featured for every minute so far, cup football included, and played the whole of the Leeds tie days earlier, a breather looks the likeliest reason behind the call, though nothing definitive has emerged. He entered the action in the 86th minute and managed two interceptions and a tackle won in his 11 minutes.
