The thing is that the Premier league is going to be a tough one next season and there would be a very strong competition for top 4 battle teams like Chelsea and Liverpool would challenge very well this season and I think I would be tough for the defending champions to win the trophy again, if you notice, they've lost a player who help them challenge for the treble to Barcelona and also Mahrez to a Saudi side though I still have fate in Pep to do his magic but it's not going to come easy, defending all three troophies they won.
Pouchettino is a very good coach as has the quality to transform the Chelsea team to title contenders once more and he's already trimming the squad and removed many players that would be a treat to his style of play, the current squad is filled with young and talented players like Madueke, Enzo Fernandes, and Mudryk, that people should watch out for next season, against Brighton it's was a wonderful performance from the blues in winning their first pre-season match against a strong Premier league side.
The way Chelsea played against Brighton was encouraging and demonstrated their increased scoring prowess. Brighton had more opportunities to shoot but Chelsea was able to take advantage of them demonstrating their accuracy in scoring. In order to secure the victory contributions from players like Nkunku, Mudryk, Jackson, and Gallagher were essential. Chelsea chances for the following season appear better with this fresh energy and a more aggressive strategy under Pouchettino direction. Their ability to recover more quickly from a difficult previous season and perhaps challenge for a top four berth in the English Premier League is demonstrated by their victory against Brighton in a friendly match.
