A Season Of Ups And Downs – 3 Expectations From Chelsea’s Remaining Games From The Fan’s Point Of View

Chelsea Football Club is at crossroads at the moment with the most important summer is just right around the corner. This summer’s business will decide the future of the new manager and subsequently the Club. A lot is expected from Antonio Conte and he seems to be the right man to lead the Club back to its original place; that is at the top. Roman Abrahimovic faces an uphill task in bringing top notch players at the club without offering Champions League football and it will be a tough job even with all the moolah.

Along with the future, the present has to be sorted out first. Chelsea are tenth in the table and have to look to win all their remaining games to give something back to the fans. The players are not as bad as they are looked upon as and with the right motivation and hunger to win back the pride, the blues can finish the season on a good note. The fans deserve a strong finish and with just one match remaining at Stamford Bridge, the players have to give it all to prove that they care. Let’s take a look at the three expectations from Chelsea in their remaining games :

1. Passion :

Players were not happy at the end of Jose’s reign but look to be stabilised under the regime of Guus Hiddink. Mathematically, a Europa League spot is still achievable and the players need to believe that they can do it. These are the same set of players that won the league so handsomely and for the stature of Chelsea, European football is a must. The fans deserve it, and the players should play for the name on the front of their shirts and play passionately.

2. Young players winning Chelsea games :

For the past month, many youngsters have got game time and all of them have impressed. It will be heartening to see Matt Miazga, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and Bertrand Traore gain more minutes and decide the course of the remaining games. Hiddink has never hesitated to start youngsters and the games against Bournemouth and Sunderland should see more from the academy to start and prove at the highest level.

3. A win against Tottenham :

There will be nothing better than beating Spurs and ending their title challenge. Spurs are running neck to neck with Leicester and if the blues play at their best and beat Tottenham, it will reduce some pain from this disastrous season. The game against Spurs will also be the last game at Stamford Bridge this season and it will be a perfect parting gift for the fans before the new campaign starts.
