It’s been an amazing start to life as Chelsea manager for Thomas Tuchel. Unbeaten in his first seven in charge of the Blues, the German has had a great start.
Dropping points in two games is something to consider as a big deal for him. But the journey, which has been somewhat smooth so far, is about to get a little bumpy.
For Roman’s Blues, their next five games will test their mettle to see what they are really made of.
After their draw against Southampton, the Blues travel to face Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid.
In a way, it’s the perfect time to face the La Liga side whose form is no longer what it used to be. Having failed to win any of their last two matches, they have let their lead at the top of the table slide. And Tuchel will be hoping to make the most of their bad patch of form when they face them later this week.

Once they’re done with Champions League duties, Chelsea will then welcome Manchester United to Stamford Bridge. Their Matchweek 26 game against the Red Devils will see them try to gain points off a side that has not lost any of its last seven games.
With Manchester United scoring the first goal in five of the last seven editions of this game, there’s plenty for Chelsea to be worried about going into this game. However, Chelsea can take solace in their home record against this familiar foe in the Premier League.

With Manchester United in their own title race against the likes of Manchester City and Leicester City, they will turn up the heat against Chelsea.
The Blues, on the other hand, have plenty to fight for. Two points outside the top four, they need the necessary points that will not only get them in, but will knock one of the other teams out for them. And one of such teams is Manchester United.

After their showdown against Man. Utd, Chelsea will take on a Liverpool side that is enduring a bad patch of form, an Everton side on the rise, Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United and then will host Atletico Madrid in the return leg of the UCL game.
There’s more than enough heat for Chelsea to bear in the days ahead. With an almost new manager and a team bursting at the seams with talent, how do you see the Blues faring in this run of games?
