Let Michy Batshuayi lead the Chelsea line to free up Eden Hazard, writes Danny Murphy

It is hard to judge Michy Batshuayi because we have hardly seen him but I am a bit surprised he has not had more of a chance at Chelsea.

He is mobile, strong and, with Alvaro Morata suspended, I would give him a go against Brighton.

Eden Hazard is better in the No10 role and giving Batshuayi a game might not be a bad thing for Chelsea. With him leading the line, Hazard can play in that free role.

I have actually quite liked Batshuayi when I have seen him and any player needs a run in a team to gain his confidence and show his best.

Chelsea have not been at it in recent weeks but I do not fancy an upset. When you play Brighton, you know you are going to dominate a lot of the ball and it is just whether Chelsea can open them up.
