Chelsea Can Be 'Part of History' With Unbeaten Season
After a dominant start to the 2024/25 campaign, Chelsea are being tipped as genuine contenders to achieve what no Premier League team has done since Arsenal’s "Invincibles" in 2003/04—go an entire league season unbeaten.
Under manager Enzo Maresca, the Blues have looked revitalized, blending defensive solidity with attacking flair. But can they really make history?
📊 Chelsea’s Strong Start: By the Numbers:
✅ Unbeaten in first 10 games (8 wins, 2 draws)
✅ Best defensive record (only 4 goals conceded)
✅ Most clean sheets (7 in 10 matches)
✅ Key players firing (Palmer, Nkunku, Fofana all in form)
If they maintain this momentum, they could match or even surpass Arsenal’s legendary 38-game unbeaten run.
🔵 What’s Different This Season?:
1. Maresca’s Tactical Discipline:
More structured buildup play compared to last season’s chaos.
High press with quick transitions—similar to Pep’s early City style.
2. Defensive Rock: Fofana & Colwill:
The center-back pairing has been near-impenetrable.
Reece James’ return adds steel at right-back.
3. Depth & Squad Harmony:
No major injury crises (so far).
Young talents like Lavia & Santos are stepping up when needed.
⚠️ Biggest Threats to an Invincible Season:
1. Tough Upcoming Fixtures:
Man City (A), Arsenal (H), Liverpool (A) in the next 6 weeks.
European commitments could lead to fatigue.
2. Pressure & Psychology:
The closer they get, the heavier the expectation.
One red card or freak result could derail it.
3. Injuries (Always a Risk):
A key player like Palmer or Nkunku going down could hurt momentum.
🗣️ What the Manager & Players Are Saying:
🎙️ Enzo Maresca: "We don’t talk about it, but of course we know the opportunity. The focus is game by game."
🎙️ Cole Palmer: "The fans dream of it, but we just keep working. If it happens, amazing—but trophies matter more."
🔮 Can They Do It?:
Bookmakers’ odds: ~12/1 (unlikely but possible).
Fan belief: Growing with every win.
Pundit verdict: "Too early, but if they survive December unbeaten, watch out." – Gary Neville
🏆 Final Thought:
An unbeaten season would cement this Chelsea side in history. But it remains a monumental challenge with the Premier League more competitive than ever.
