Jamie Redknapp tips Chelsea to be a “slow burner” and will get “stronger and stronger” | OneFootball

Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp believes Chelsea will be a slow burner this season and just get better and better.

There has been a lot of negativity amongst fans and media in the last handful of games as Chelsea went through a bit of a slump. Things were not great and performances and results were poor before the last two games.

But Chelsea have now beaten Benfica in the Champions League last week, and now they have beaten Premier League Champions Liverpool through a last minute winner from Estevao Willian to win 2-1 yesterday afternoon.

The first Chelsea goal came from a wonder strike from midfielder Moises Caicedo, who has just been superb really for the last two seasons solid and has earned the tag of being the best current midfielder in the league by Gary Neville this weekend.

Pundit Jamie Redknapp was on duty for Sky Sports covering the Chelsea win over Liverpool yesterday, and he was confident that Chelsea will be getting stronger and stronger in his post-match analysis last night.

As cited on X, Redknapp said:

“Winning the Club World Cup was huge for this team, but it’s come at a cost. Look at PSG, they’re decimated by injuries.

“So I think Chelsea will be a slow burner as well, and we’ll get better as the season goes on. And we’re so quick to judge teams right now, but it doesn’t matter after seven, eight games. It matters at the end of the season, and I think Chelsea are going to get stronger and stronger.”
