Big things are expected from the young Swiss goal-scoring centre-back. Not only is the 21-year-old a commanding centre-back, but he is also a set-piece specialist, scoring 4 goals in the Europa League last season. Therefore Chelsea will have to be wary about giving any and free-kicks in dangerous positions, as Schär has the ability to take advantage. The defender is also very good in the air, and has already formed a good, although inexperienced, partnership with new recruit Ivan Ivanov and goalkeeper Sommer.
