Christmas is simply across the nook, and a few good consumers might be taking a look at FC25 accounts for sale already, however what Chelsea followers will really need of their stocking are some good outcomes from their soccer group.
The Blues have a poor document during the last 10 years in the case of this time of 12 months. Actually each time we’ve managed to keep away from struggling by late November and December, we’ve normally ended up successful the title, or coming near it.
This 12 months, a run of robust video games by October and the primary a part of November appears to have cleared out calendar out a bit, and there are some winnable fixtures on the horizon.
Not solely that, however we’re in a very good damage scenario proper now, with no senior gamers out. That, mixed with the strict A group, B group coverage being employed between the cups and the league by Enzo Maresca implies that his first XI are coming into the festive interval as match, as contemporary, as accessible and as in-form as any Blues group we will bear in mind in years.
There’s competitors for locations, however an excellent temper general on the coaching floor too.
If any group was going to snap the dangerous streak of outcomes at the moment of 12 months, it will be this one. So who is actually on the agenda between now and the New Yr?
Effectively you couldn’t get extra of a gift than Leicester to start out with, subsequent weekend. An early kick off after an international break is all the time a bit little bit of a curve ball, however we should always see it off fairly simply. That and the Southampton recreation 10 days later needs to be 6 factors, however the Aston Villa and Spurs video games in between might be so much harder.
Having stated that, neither of them are in nice type proper now. It’s an excellent time to play them each, comparatively talking.
After that it’s a gentle mid-table run by the remainder of 2024. Brentford, Everton, Fulham on Boxing Day, Ipswich on New Yr’s Eve. All winnable, though the hectic calendar at the moment of 12 months all the time makes issues extra difficult.
There actually is the prospect to select up an entire chunk of factors to cement us within the high 4. Actually, win nearly all of them and we’ll most likely be fairly near high spot within the league, if somebody can nick some factors off Liverpool elsewhere throughout this era.
