Chelsea - When and How Will Stability Be Achieved?

The date is May 29, 2021. The city? Porto, Portugal. The stadium? Estádio do Dragão. On the pitch, a final whistle is blown and Chelsea are deserved UEFA Champions League winners after a well-fought tactical battle with Manchester City that has been edged by a Kai Havertz goal in the 42nd minute.

The 72 million pound man has proved his worth at the biggest stage after a crazy season that has once again seen Chelsea in a weird spiral which has ultimately resulted in a trophy[and this time the biggest in football, mind you].

We fast forward to today - 19th of December 2021. Chelsea have just drawn Wolves in quite a boring game that has seen the side now effectively sit six points behind City after leading them by three not so long ago.

It’s premature to suggest Chelsea are out of a title race, some like me have never believed Chelsea were the favourites in such, but the truth is the side’s performances have dipped exponentially. A reoccurring thing in December, most definitely, but still, things have taken a turn for the worse.
