JAKARTA - Chelsea will rise in the English Premier League 2023/2024 after slumping in the previous season. Unmitigated, the Blues are aiming for the title.

This was conveyed by Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez. With high confidence, the Argentine thinks his team is starting to show their identity as winners.

Moreover, Chelsea achieved a satisfactory result on the pre-season tour. Of the five matches that have been played, three ended in wins, while the rest were even.

"The main goal of this year is to win the Premier League," Enzo said, quoted from the club's official website.

The presence of the new manager, Mauricio Pochettino, also sparked Enzo Fernandez's enthusiasm. He said the boss had full experience in the English Premier League while training Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur.

In addition, Pochettino has pretty good statistics. Together with The Saints, he won 23 wins, 18 draws, and 19 defeats. Meanwhile, with Spurs, the Argentine recorded 160 wins, 60 draws, and 73 defeats.

"Now we have a new manager, you have to say our hopes have changed. Obviously, when I arrived, things were difficult, there were a lot of changes that happened and everything happened so quickly for me," said the former SL Benfica player, as quoted by Antara.

"We want to be an aggressive team that attacks and defends well, which goes into every game to win it, whatever the opponent. We want to dominate every game we have," he added.

With the arrival of experienced managers like Pochettino, Enzo is very happy because the boss is also one country with him.

"Having an Argentine coach is much easier for me. Talking to him is very important. It's another way to connect because I still can't speak English perfectly, so speaking to him in Spanish is much easier," said the 2022 World Cup winner in Qatar.

This helps my confidence and it is a better relationship. It also has a big impact on my confidence," he continued.

Meanwhile, the first pebble that Enzo and his friends had to go through to win the English Premier League again was against Liverpool in the EPL opener at Stamford Bridge, Sunday, August 13, at 22.30 WIB.
