Chelsea

The Blues exhibit alternating periods of improvement and then encounter abrupt setbacks, causing concern. They are eager to avoid falling into trouble once more.

While expectations for greater team stability were high, the integration hasn’t been seamless, affecting their readiness for upcoming matches. Their season began with a harsh defeat in the second match against West Ham.
