Premier League teams have plenty of plates to spin heading into Gameweek 22, off the back of EFL Cup and FA Cup action, as well as European football (for some).
In among this busy schedule a couple of sides have made managerial changes &#8211; including Chelsea.
The Blues&#8217; upcoming Premier League fixtures make them a potential side to target, with their next six fixtures reading Brentford (H), Crystal Palace (A), West Ham (H), Wolves (A), Leeds (H) and Burnley (H).
Injuries to the likes of Cole Palmer (£10.4m) and Reece James (£5.7m) could make things trickier for FPL managers, and Chelsea have a huge squad at their disposal.
Squawka have used their <a href="https://www.squawka.com/en/comparison-matrix/">Comparison Matrix</a> to handpick and analyse four specific Chelsea assets and their potential under <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/chelsea-fpl-tips-fixtures-tactics-players/">new manager Liam Rosenior</a>.
&nbsp;
<h3>Enzo Fernandez (£6.4m) &#8211; 10.4% owned</h3>
Enzo Fernandez was an important component under Maresca, playing in a double pivot alongside Moises Caicedo (£5.7m). 
Often given the freedom to play higher between the lines on the ball, the Argentine has played 20 times in the Premier League this season, scoring six goals and providing one assist.
Fernandez has scored 92 FPL points so far this season, with his 4.6 points per game making him Chelsea’s second-highest point scorer, benefitting from penalties in the absence of Cole Palmer (£10.4m).
The Chelsea man is averaging 0.4 goals per 90, which is the most of any Blues player this season. He is also taking 1.7 shots per 90, frequently arriving in the box as a fifth attacker &#8211; at least under Maresca.
Following Chelsea’s EFL Cup game against Arsenal, the big question will be whether Rosenior continues to utilise Fernandez in a deeper midfield role, reducing his goal threat.
For this reason, it may be worth waiting to see exactly how Fernandez is used in the next match before transferring him in, but the temptation is there given this week&#8217;s appealing fixture against Brentford.

<h3>Malo Gusto (£5.0m) &#8211; 2.3% owned <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/premier-league-predicted-lineups/">(note: injury doubt)</a></h3>
Malo Gusto is one of the players who will likely be taking up a “new” role under Rosenior. 
The Frenchman is still likely to occupy advanced areas, but looks more likely to be linking up with the right winger to generate attacks through combination play.
Gusto has already played 19 league games for the Blues this season, notching two goals, two assists, and 73 FPL points &#8211; averaging 3.8 points per game.
However, this new role could suit the 22-year-old full-back, pushing him into attacking areas where he can deliver more early crosses into the box.
Gusto is currently only averaging 1.4 crosses attempted per 90, which is relatively low due to his more central role under Maresca.
As a route into the Chelsea defence with plenty of attacking output, Gusto could be an interesting differential considering the upcoming fixtures &#8211; although Trevoh Chalobah (£5.5m) and goalkeeper Robert Sanchez (£4.9m) present steadier picks.

<h3>Estevao (£6.4m) &#8211; 1.8% owned</h3>
Estevao is one of the most exciting young talents in the Premier League right now, arriving at Chelsea this summer after securing a transfer in 2024.
The 18-year-old has played in 17 Premier League games so far this season, but has only managed eight starts and 605 minutes, with plenty of substitute appearances so far.
Under Rosenior, we have already seen the Brazilian operate on the right-hand side, drifting inside and getting himself into dangerous areas.
Estevao is already averaging 2.1 chances created per 90 this season, as well as 8.5 touches in the opposition penalty area, demonstrating how often he gets himself into threatening positions.
For the same price as Fernandez in midfield, Estevao could be a high ceiling punt if he can nail down a starting spot, but he will have to compete with the likes of Pedro Neto (£7.1m) and Alejandro Garnacho (£6.4m) for a place out wide.

<h3>Liam Delap (£6.2m) &#8211; 0.9% owned <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/premier-league-predicted-lineups/">(note: injury doubt)</a></h3>
Chelsea’s new number nine has actually worked with Rosenior before at Hull City.
Delap, who signed for Chelsea this Summer, has struggled since arriving at Stamford Bridge &#8211; already sustaining two injuries and subsequently missing a large number of games.
The 22-year-old has made 12 Premier League appearances for Chelsea, scoring just once in his 578 total minutes to date.
Rosenior’s current options in the striker position are Delap, Joao Pedro (£7.1m) and Marc Guiu (£4.2m) with the new manager stating his admiration for a “classic centre-forward” in the past.
This description best suits Delap, who is averaging 2.2 shots per 90 despite his injury struggles, and a decent run in the Chelsea team could see the goals start to flow.
As is the case with several Chelsea picks right now, we will get more information on Delap&#8217;s prospects when we see Rosenior&#8217;s league starting XI &#8211; there&#8217;s room to be patient with the Blues&#8217; good fixture run only just beginning.
