Chelsea are prepared to wait until March to decide what they are capable of challenging for this season according to The Telegraph.

The Blues have made a good start to the season with Sunday’s win against Aston Villa taking them back into the top three and level on points with Arsenal in second.

Chelsea have lost just two of their 13 league matches and sit nine points behind Liverpool with talk of a possible title challenge now emerging.

Chelsea will wait until March before deciding what they can achieve

Maresca has played down talk of a title race on numerous occasions, with Cole Palmer adding he believes it’s to early for the Blues to be challenging.

Maresca may have played down talk of the title this season, but he stuck by his claim that he believes the Blues can be on of the teams that dominate English football over the next five or ten years.

The Telegraph have reported that no one at club is getting carried away by the current league position and internally they believe it’s pointless to think about what might be possible this season until March at the earliest.

The report adds those above Maresca are really happy with how things have gone so far, whilst the pre-season objectives were to help Chelsea improve and implement a clear style of play.

The Blues remain on course to get back into the Champions League which is vital for the club not just for attracting players, but also for attracting sponsors, with the Blues still currently without a front of shirt sponsor.

Chelsea may have to think again about being title contenders if they were to find themselves five or six points off the top come February or March, but all that is still a way off.
