The stats behind 'fun to watch' Chelsea's resurgence

Seven Premier League games into Enzo Maresca's reign as Chelsea boss and the Blues fans have plenty to be excited about.

Before this weekend's matches started, only Manchester City with 17 goals had scored more than Chelsea's total of 16.

At the same stage last season, Chelsea, at the beginning of Mauricio Pochettino's only campaign in charge, had seven goals, including a three-game run without registering.

In 2024-25, the Blues have been far more entertaining. They have created 27 "big" chances, the joint-second highest in the division, and had 41 shots on target, the fifth highest.
