Chelsea did win again on Tuesday when they defeated Bournemouth 2-0 at Stamford Bridge, but the Blues are still not performing at their peak. Although it was a nice victory, Chelsea’s chances of finishing in the top four in the EPL this year appear to have already suffered.
The team led by Graham Potter is now 8th in the standings, trailing teams like Arsenal, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Tottenham, Manchester United, and even Liverpool. The aforementioned clubs must lose games while the Blues must win them for Chelsea to finish in the top four, which is mathematically still extremely likely.
Based on the kind of League season Chelsea has had so far, this is practically unthinkable. The Blues have already suffered more defeats than they did at this point in the League’s previous season, when they unconvincingly finished third.

Chelsea should put more of an emphasis on winning the competition this season if they truly want to play in the Champions League next season.
Recall that Kai Havertz, a star for the German national team, was outstanding for Chelsea in the match and he was able to play wonderfully as he scored an incredible goal to lead Chelsea to a well-deserved victory over their opponent.
Coach Graham Potter gave the former Bayer 04 Leverkusen football club star a starting position in his team’s assault, and he was able to dazzle in the thrilling match.
