Chelsea is officially out of the race for the top 4, and that is a disaster for Chelsea. Where would they go from here? They haven’t signed the right players and hired the wrong managers. lol
Maresca is finished. He can’t coach an attack or defense, and rotates the squad for no reason.
Chelsea is out of the top 4 race from they are not contenders. They are back to default settings now.
Chelsea might still qualified to champions League if they did not drop further from how they are now because fifth position could still be a champions League range this year because I noticed some changes about the lining this season and I have also heard people saying it that fifth has been included on the previous list of four so that's good for Chelsea because for seasons they have missed the champions League and also to give the lower rank club to work hard in other to see what champions has.
Chelsea has dropped form badly, maybe, since Maresca stated that they aren't in the title race this season, they failed to put much effort in their games, because I am still surprised why Chelsea performance declined so badly when they were busy signing all the players in world from the start of the season.
However, If the Premier League had not been given fifth place to qualify, I believe Chelsea would struggle to qualified for the next Champions League, as I see it at this time. Even with their current position, Chelsea is not safe because Manchester City and Newcastle has what it takes to secure the position with the remaining games.
