It feels pretty good so far, this start to the season. We had quite a long stretch of going unbeaten, we’ve toppled Manchester City, and it sure seems like we’ve scored a lot of goals. But sadly, this post today is a bit of harsh reality. The truth? In the “Roman” Era, this is only our 8th best start after 17 matches. Also:
- Tied for 6th best in terms of Goals Scored
- Tied for 10th best in terms of Goals Allowed
- Tied for 7th best in terms of Differential
- Tied for 8th best in terms of Wins
A bit of a sobering reminder of just how good Chelsea football has been over the last 16 seasons as a whole. Now, this isn’t to say we are doing badly, we are still sitting in a CL spot right now, but improvement definitely needs to be on the menu.
