Chelsea’s cursed season continues and despite the all-time low in terms of results (one win in 9 games), you can’t help but feel some optimism.
Compared to 6 weeks ago, when we were both losing every week and also had a weak team ravaged by injuries, things look much more promising in terms of quality now. Chelsea spent a lot of money revamping their entire squad in January, and not only that, they also passed the nadir of their injury hell.
Ben Chilwell and Reece James started a game for the first time in what seems like years last night, Mateo Kovacic and N’Golo Kante are closing in on a return, and we hope Raheem Sterling will be available for our next game as well.
On that front, things are looking good, and we’d be surprised if our next 9 games were as bad as the last 9.
If you share our belief that this will be the turning point. Perhaps this is your chance to back the Blues to finish in the European places in the Premier League this season, using something like your bingoal bonus code to improve your odds even further.
The bookies are looking at the numbers, and there’s no denying that they look bad. Last night was the perfect example, as we somehow couldn’t find the net despite some great opportunities. But our luck will change with time, and when it does, we expect this newly talented team to run. Just when those around us start to tire, we should come together. At the stage where FA Cup and Carabao Cup commitments begin to drag others down, we will be fresh and free and able to train all week.
Graham Potter’s place seems safe no matter what results he gets, allowing him to focus on training instead of worrying about his job. If we can start to put the ball in the net, we foresee a quick climb up the table and hopefully a surge of morale that can take us into the Europa League places at the very least.
Southampton, Tottenham, Leeds, Leicester and Everton are our next 5 games. All of them have had their problems at some point this season, and with a bit of confidence we can beat any of them. That’s three of the last four, plus a game against Spurs that we can use to get them back.
Maybe it’s just the Joao Felix hype that’s getting to us, but we’re really starting to see the green shoots…
