Chelsea have made a positive start to the 2024/25 season and it has caught many off guard, including former Liverpool defender and now Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher.
Enzo Maresca, who was appointed in the summer by the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital ownership to succeed Mauricio Pochettino, has guided Chelsea into a top four position in the Premier League so far, whilst also winning all of their League Phase games in the Conference League.have a real opportunity to take advantage of their current position and upcoming fixtures between now and the end of the year to cement their position in the bid to qualify for the Champions League next season.
The decision to part ways with Pochettino was not popular in some quarters, especially from Carragher when he was sharing his predictions for the current season earlier in the summer.Carragher slammed Chelsea's transfer approach and cried out for players to stop moving to Stamford Bridge to follow the likes of Cole Palmer, Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez.
"If I was a player I don’t know why you would sign for Chelsea, the only reason you would sign is because someone – your agent – might say ‘You’re getting a seven-year deal and that’s guaranteed money for seven years. After just 12 games played in the league and 22 points accrued, Carragher has had a change of heart and is now predicting Chelsea to finish in the top four. Quite the change of stance just a matter of months into the season.. " better than I thought they would be. I can't really make a case for them to not be in the top four.
