If you look at the material from the Chelsea players who arrived last season, I'm sure there have been good changes when Pochettino handled him. Pochettino throws away players he didn't buy and that's normal in my opinion. because this has also happened to Arsenal, Arteta has also thrown away Unai Emery's chosen players and almost all of them were thrown away, even though they were not sold directly, but they were slowly thrown away. Because when Arteta first became Arsenal coach he wasn't too good but he dared to overhaul young players plus a more efficient game system as the season progressed and finally entered the UCL zone again.

This will also happen to Chelsea one day, even though it can't be changed in one season, but I believe Chelsea will rise again and become a contender for the EPL League again.
Of course it is difficult for me to expect Chelsea to be outstanding next season just after they have signed Pochettino as their coach. Pochettino can build a good squad like he did with Tottenham, and at Chelsea he is very likely to do that too.

Pochettino needs time to return to good form for Chelsea after slumping last season. Chelsea will slowly return to form but it also depends on the management and his agreement with Pochettino. At least Chelsea will have a new hope with Pochettino, but I'm very curious about his form next season.


One thing I hope for is that Manchester City will again have a strong competitive field for the title. The worst that can happen in the Premier League is when 8 weeks before the season ends one team is leading with a 20 points gap. The issue is that I believe this could actually go that way as several teams need to find themselves again first before they can aim higher and also perform well on most of the 38 game days. Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea, all teams that could usually play for the top for a while but perhaps we now have Newcastle and Arsenal instead. But I think it is close to being guaranteed that Manchester will play a good season at least and maybe a perfect season if other teams are pushing them.
