The players that Chelsea brought in last season were just a waste of money, because the new players who arrived did not give a new color to the game from Chelsea. Building a foundation from the start has to be done, if they want a solid foundation, because I can see that now they have no vision of how they want to play and we will see the results from how they felt in the past season. The arrival of a new coach must be followed by a squad overhaul because the coach must have his own criteria about the players he really needs. I think we will see some big changes that Chelsea will make to navigate the 2023/2024 season.
Coach Pochettino is trying to put things in order for the club, by selling out players he doesn't need, just to give chance for the younger stars they brought last season. The club management was the reason they had backward season, and if the right things is not being done, they might struggle this season again. Regardless how experienced Pochettino is, he needs time to set this club to winning way, it will take time , but pochettino will succeed at chelsea.
But some of them actually I think are still quite good like Havertz and now Mount which is definitely given to a rival club which of course this could be a problem for them next season.
Talking about time it will definitely take time but at least for now it is for Pochettino to make their squad better and not as chaotic as last season.
Now Mendy is gone and this means Kepa will also be filling in for their goalkeeper again next season.
He is still very good, it's just that sometimes his performance is also erratic so in this case there needs to be some improvement on the defense as well because this can minimize Kepa making mistakes.
