The 2024-25 season was a wonderful season for Chelsea Football Club. After all, we lifted not one but two pieces of silverware after three long years. First it was the UEFA Conference League, and second was the FIFA Club World Cup. By winning the Conference League, we became the first club in Europe that has won all three European titles. Furthermore, the victory in the USA was even more special since it was the inaugural edition of the newly launched FIFA Club World Cup.
Interestingly, we won that trophy by hammering PSG 3-0. Paris Saint-Germain are presently in their peak era. They are Champions League winners. Moreover, they hammered the top clubs whom they faced in the Champions League as well as the Club World Cup. As a result, a victory against them is even more special.
Due to the success in 2024-25, the hopes were high at Stamford Bridge. People started believing that we can win the Premier League this season; after all, we have a team that can beat the best of oppositions. However, after two months one can say that the journey has been a topsy-turvy ride.
The team lacks consistency and is struggling to perform on the big stage. We are presently reeling in the 8th position in the Premier League and have lost our opening Champions League game against Bayern Munich. Yes, we have managed a win in the Carabao Cup. However, this is not what we expect from Chelsea. Chelsea is a big team, and we expect them to perform like a big team.
Can we make a comeback from here? Definitely yes. But it won't be easy. After all, we have a mountain to climb. But, we have done that in the past, and one will hope that they will replicate it again.
