However, I don't believe Pochettino had a bad season with them, Enzo Maresca did what other managers couldn't on their debut. Despite Chelsea's poor beginning of the season, we all saw Pochettino's improvement of the team and their sixth place finish the previous season. The team was performing well at the end of the previous season, and I think that if the management gives Pochettino a chance to continue this season, he can achieve the same success as Maresca because he has developed the players and they have already adapted to the team's style of play, the new manager continues to use the players who were better from the previous season.
No doubt there could have been high possibility of having decent form this season under Pochettino, though we could still possibly be having the likes of Conor Gallagher, Chalobah and Petrovic on the team but I don't really know how well Jackson and Sanchez might have improved or if we would have gone for the likes of Felix, Sancho and Neto also.
Furthermore, Chelsea has not defeated any major team this season, so I am not impressed with their performance, even though they can beat an average club with a lot of goals, I am not confident in their performance against any top team. Chelsea's performance against Liverpool was great, but they still lost; I don't understand the point of a team playing well if they cannot defeat any of the league's top teams.
This is still something I expect Pochettino to still suffered such defeat no doubt, at least we can say there have been much improvement on the style of play under Enzo Maresca, though I don't know how well this will go but we're just hoping for the best. While Chelsea may have much tendency of defeating middle team and below easily now, don't forget this sometimes was a difficult task for us last season.
Don't ignore the fact that the team is still growing, though is not that I live Enzo Maresca, except he succeed. Chelsea style of play have improved and tge attack have been more better than before, though we are still lacking at the defense and I will blame Enzo Maresca on this but there's high tendency we will do better with time, let's see where the team can end this season and if they can actually lift a trophy this season, if they make it to any final and not like last season disappointment.
