Below we list five issues that
Chelsea need to deal with in 2013 if they are to remain an elite
European team that are consistent challengers for both the Premiership
and Champions League.
Managerial stability
Has to be the number one priority, either give Benitez the job full time or employ a manager that everyone is behind long term, Chelsea needs managerial consistency, that breeds consistency within the team and with that comes success, it really is not rocket science.
Clarity over the legends
Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and John Terry are all Chelsea legends and deserve better treatment as they enter the twilight of their careers, look at how Man Utd treat Scholes and Giggs, however that is all beside the point, the club need to sort this out once and for all, it is a side issue that will linger over the club and in the dressing room unless clarity is brought forward.
Either give the players new contracts once and for all or release a public statement declaring them available.
Avoid controversy
That is given, regardless of the right and wrongs of what has happened controversy disrupts teams, it certainly does no favours and a year without any controversy can only be a good thing for Chelsea, look at what Chelsea did when the club was embroiled in one incident or another, imagine what can be achieved with a team stable and in harmony.
Torres decision once and for all
Rafa Benitez may have got the best out of Torres for now, but other managers have failed and what if Benitez does not get the job full time, what then? Truth is that Torres is inconsistent at best and no longer can be considered an elite forward, Chelsea need an elite forward and one has to hope that in 2013 Chelsea finally make a firm decision about the Spaniard and off load him.
Getting back to where they belong
Whether you like Chelsea or not they are a huge club, they should be challenging for the title every year, they should always qualify from the group stages of the Champions League and at a bare minimum Chelsea need to get back to that status, Title challengers and Champion League challengers.
