The performance of Chelsea by next season is somthing I cannot actually predict. I mean it is easy to say that Chelsea will perform well by next season. But also consider that almost every club wants to perform well also. If you wish to talk about the top 5. What is the possibility that Chelsea can displace;
Manchester city;
Arsenal;
Manchester United;
Liverpool
And not to talk about Newcastle and Co from the top 4. It will be difficult to Chelsea. If Poch can take Chelsea to Europa it should be considered a success.
Lol... So Chelsea is now that bad that you can only limit then to a 5th place or 6th place finish next season? Don't be quick to write them off because they might even produce a shocker and win the league next season. Chelsea has a good coach now and all he needs is some time to pass his ideas and philosophy to the team. And if I were you I won't look down on any team.
