Chelsea flirts with being the worst team in the Premier during 2023
The Stamford Bridge team is once again in the news for a negative record, which shows how the year has gone.
Chelsea, Bournemouth, Fulham and Nottingham Forest are the clubs that have lost the most times in the Premier League throughout 2023. Those who were promoted and relegated months ago are left out of this classification, due to having played fewer games. Sheffield United, without going any further, is bottom with nine points; Both Burnley and Luton, both in the red zone, have also reached double digits in terms of negative results.
The four teams mentioned at the beginning have 19 defeats, one more than Everton, until the beginning of the nineteenth day. And they can still reach twenty because they have to play a couple more games. Mauricio Pochettino’s men, with a very favorable schedule, will face Crystal Palace at home and Luton as visitors. These rivals are worse placed in the table and are rivals that should be affordable.
The Blues finished twelfth last season, out of European spots and light years off the target. Winning the title is always a complex task due to the high number of candidates, but it is a squad that has been designed to at least achieve a place for the next edition of the Champions League. With an insufficient balance of 22 points, they are very far (14 units) from privileged positions.
Although there are not many reasons to get excited about a more promising 2024, fans can cling to Christopher Nkunku, who debuted this Sunday in the domestic tournament and scored against Wolverhampton. He has been in the infirmary since August and is beginning to take steps alongside an entity that spent 60 million euros to acquire his services after exploding at RB Leipzig (he also played for Paris Saint-Germain).
