With the conditions of the beginning of the season it is still possible. The points gap with the 4th-placed team is only 9 points, with 33 games remaining it still has a very big chance. But if it can indeed improve the performance in the rest of that game. but if the predictions of new Chelsea players not being able to adapt to English football culture are correct then that improvement is likely to be difficult. This could be Chelsea's transfer failure problem.
A lot of people have already begun to write off Chelsea as not able to perform well this season and are even going ahead to speculate them being relegated after having just played only 6 games. They’ve got a lot more games to play to step up and try to redeem theme selves.
I highly doubt the problems are due to new players being brought in, not being able to adapt to English football culture. Perhaps the strategies deployed by the coaching staff aren’t that effective? They are various reasons on why they’ve failed to improve on their performance.
There’s still some time and more games to be played for a turnaround to a better performance.
That is not a mistake because seeing from what Chelsea are doing this season with 6 early matches 1 win, 2 draws and 3 defeats has proven that Chelsea are still playing very badly and the conditions are the same as last season even though they have spent a lot to overhaul so that the club plays well.
The new players need more adaptation but the problem is that their massive overhaul almost makes these adaptation players have no backup from senior players or those who have been in Chelsea or EPL for a long time which makes this even more difficult.
Blaming some of the new players is also not too much of a problem because some of the new players are underperforming but if only the players and coaches are blamed without seeing the dilapidated management too I think it's unfair.
