Maybe Chelsea is not ready to compete in the top rankings, especially in the fight for the title. And it turns out that it is true, as stated by Maresca herself, that this team is not in the hunt for the title. Because as seen now, Chelsea can be said to be starting to lose their best performance again. In fact, their bad trend was not only when they were defeated by Fullham, but 1 week before that we saw Chelsea being held to a draw by Everton. Maybe since then this team has started to lose their best game again. But maybe we will find out the answer in the next match against Crystal Palace. If Chelsea lose again or are only held to a draw then that will be bad news for this team. And yes, I was also disappointed with the result of the Chelsea vs Ipswich match. Because it's hard to believe that Chelsea could lose with a score of 2-0 without being able to score a single goal.

They are actually back from where they have been coming from. Everyone was amazed and thought that they finally had their breakthrough and maybe it wouldn't have been enough to compete with Liverpool for the title, but their performances looked great and a top 4 ranking was almost out of the question had they kept going like that. But now they dropped points against a mediocre team like Fulham, which I think is not the worst that can happen but still, and now they dropped points against Ipswich Town, the full 3 points. I don't know but this is again the Chelsea from last season.

They have now three more games against opponents that are all not that strong, time for recovery from this turn down is now.

Well, in the Premier League, at least Chelsea will face teams that should have the strength below Chelsea. And Chelsea should be favorites in the next 3 matches in the Premier League. Because their next opponents are Crystal Palace, Bournemouth and Wolves. Perhaps the opponent that will be the most difficult to beat is Bournemouth. But if Chelsea is at its best then Chelsea should be able to win. But if Chelsea is still the same as when they played against Fullham and Ipswich then it is certain that Chelsea will fail to get full points. Chelsea must bounce back and rediscover their performance which had previously improved quite rapidly. I don't want this team to sink again like in previous seasons.
