Mauricio Pochettino has previewed Chelsea's first game of the Premier League season against Liverpool after setting out the club's objectives for the 2023/24 campaign. The Blues finished 12th last term - a massive 45 points behind eventual champions Manchester City.
Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson have arrived at Stamford Bridge as Pochettino looks to bolster his attacking options following Kai Havertz's move to Arsenal. Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Edouard Mendy, Kalidou Koulibaly and N'Golo Kante have also left the club as part of a major overhaul of the squad.
The Blues begin their first season under Pochettino against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, August 13. The Reds had a poor season under Jurgen Klopp last term but still managed to rescue Europa League qualification with a fifth placed finish.
