A popular phrase among Chelsea fans of recent has been ‘we are not in the title race’. This comes after repetitive dismissal of Chelsea’s title ambitions from most pundits.

To keep his team guided, Enzo Maresca has consistently brushed off talks about a title race.

With Chelsea now higher up the table and closest to league leaders Liverpool, Chelsea fans are insisting on not being in the title race.

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has joined the party, as he remains grounded despite the team’s impressive form.

“We’re just trying to win every game and focus on the next one. I don’t look at the table,” Jackson stated.

This perspective aligns with manager Enzo Maresca’s cautious stance on title aspirations. Following Chelsea’s recent 2-1 victory over Brentford, Maresca commented, “No matter how many games we win, I don’t think we are ready… We cannot concede how we did and open the game and give them a chance.”

As Chelsea continue to close in on Premier League leaders Liverpool, Jackson’s dedication to focusing on each game reflects a disciplined approach that could prove crucial in the title race.
