2024 has actually been a pretty positive year on the whole as far as results go for Chelsea.

Under a combination of Mauricio Pochettino and Enzo Maresca, the Blues have drastically turned around their fortunes in all competitions, coming very close to silverware in the process.

A number of players in this time have drastically lifted their levels. Cole Palmer has been on par with the best in the world in the last nine months or so.

That unfortunately has already happened this year under the current boss, but only in the form of the champions visiting West London in his first game in charge.

In fact, a statistic reported by the Premier League on Twitter states that Chelsea are actually the top scoring side at home in this time period, notching up 47 goals in just 17 games.

At an average of nearly three goals scored every home game, the supporters at Stamford Bridge have been treated to some thrilling victories in 2024.

This average has been brought down a tad by the slower start to life at home in front of goal under Maresca, with supporters not afraid to show their discontent.

Enzo Maresca showing signs of frustration Maresca was visibly frustrated at fans during the first game of the campaign against Manchester City, after they made it clear his style of play was already becoming frustrating to watch.

The boss was furious for other reasons yesterday during the 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace.

Maresca was left seething that Will Hughes avoided a red card for a second bookable offence, just moments before the London side equalised at Stamford Bridge.

The Italian will now have a two-week break after a very busy start to the season, before the Blues are back in action with the tricky test of a trip to Bournemouth, the final team Pochettino faced while in charge.
