I believe Chelsea's difficulties last season were subtle and compounded, resulting to unpredictable play. On their day, they can still defeat the greatest, but there are too many terrible performances, but now that Chelsea has signed new manager Mauricio Pochettino, I believe they will progress with each game. They will not win every game in the upcoming season because the Premier League is a dynamic league in which any side may beat any other.
Chelsea have sold several of their key players; I believe that if they buy new players, Chelsea will strive harder than they did last season. The manager should sign skillful players who will perform well for Chelsea next season.
With all the possibilities that will happen after they make a big overhaul of their squad for next season, I don't understand why they sell a lot of their main players even they sell them at a cheap price.
Mauricio Pochettino does have experience managing Premier League teams, but to revive Chelsea, of course, he has a very heavy burden, especially since this team has very high targets and also to be able to restore the performance of a team that has fallen is not easy.
I would like to state that the first very problem Chelsea had last season was having a big squad with too many players.. Tuchel who had the control was sacked and a new coach came in, for an amateur but good coach like potter, a team with so much size would be a problem!!! Finding a stable line up, and keeping a big part of the squad happy will be a problem!!, and that was the genesis!!! I am not surprised that an overhaul of players who surely  are less motivated to play for Chelsea and are surplus to requirements is happening now!!! And we (Chelsea) cannot send 10 out and bring in 10 again!!! We need to reduce the size of the team and with the quality of players left, Young and Old, and the little/ required additions made then a good coach should be able to be successful in the new season!!!
A major setback that led to the ugly performance of the club finishing 12th position last season was due to some unhappy players in the team who for reasons best known to them were not comfortable being with the club again and this in extension didn't give the expected results despite spending so much on new signings last season.

The above as explained made the overhauling necessary, taking away the old bad eggs while bringing in new ones. Pochenitto is an experience manager and would definitely excel at Chelsea looking at the quality of players he is bringing into the club in the likes of Christopher nkuku, Nicolas Jackson, what we are expecting to see is a signing of a good central midfielder in place of Matao Kovacic who has joined the City. A midfielder that can work side by side Enzo Fernandes come next season.
