Chelsea has finished in the sixth position. That is definitely a great turnaround from them. At one point it actually looked like they were going to finish towards the relegation zone.
Mauricio Pochettino did an excellent task by elevating the Blues to 6th position, but Manchester United winning Manchester City in the FA Cup final automatically make them qualify for the Europa League and this is bad news for Chelsea. They will settle for the Conference League. The Blues will do great standings and winning will become important on their end.
Chelsea not being able to make to Europa League based on the fact that Manchester United won Manchester City at the fa Cup final made me disappointed and really don't miss Poch much, though still have to give him credit when did a good job of finishing 6th even above Manchester United since it has been somehow long when last we finished above them in the EPL though they still beat us to the Europa League and we are left with the Conference league sigh.
The new Chelsea coach I don't have my hopes high on him, if he do great wonderful while if he do poorly he should sacked early enough, I don't just care about how tactical he maybe or Chelsea players he as once work with and even his oast achievements because to me he is a mid coach and above the hype he may perform poorly like Potter who was pretty good until he came to Chelsea and we all knows what happened next.
On the records, Chelsea didn't have a solid planning in the early starting of the English Premier League this season. It was one of the rough runs for the club under the regime of Mauricio Pochettino but things getting ready to become complex.
I believe this was from the fact that we were not having any attacker to score while also midfielders were also bad at goals which was the issue.
Jackson did well in pre season including Nkunku but when the season started one was injured and the other was just to bad at scoring and this continued even till season ending while the only attacker to step up was Cole Palmer though Sterling was somehow trying but became too inconsistent that we can say he was a disappointing also not until season ending when these players got some level of consistency and we saw a good improvement to finish 6th.
Another good thing was the fact that we had to drop Sanchez and focus on using Petrovic really made things better while our defense was still shaky though
