Before the game I was rating Chelsea as one of the current average English premier league teams but after watching Manchester City's second XI humiliate a star studded Chelsea team I had to change my thoughts of the team because judging by their current standard, Chelsea is playing like championship club that's struggling to play in the premier league.
Mauricio Pochettino has a lot of psychological work to do in other to restore the confidence of this Chelsea team when he finally starts his reign as the club manager. disappointing is a better word to describe the current Chelsea performance
Sorry but I can definitely not agree with the word "humiliate". Chelsea had more shots on target and having less ball possession comes at no surprise. I guess even Barcelona would have much less ball possession in a standard game in the Etihad stadium.
But still Chelsea missed the chance of some minor rehabilitation for this season. Even if it wouldn't have been meaningful in regards to their final rank in the table, it could have created some positive momentum within the team if they win a game against Manchester City.
The question is really whether Chelsea can do a 180 degree turn next season.
