Will Chelsea will be a good side for 2016:

Being the Premier League Champions there isn't much to improve on in the squad, however the team is very small so the challenge would be to make the team bigger so they can be competitive in every competition. The team does have some good young talents though and with new signings being mainly youth players with high potential the London side could be a great side to build a dynasty with. The club has plenty of money to do just this too and wouldn't take many signings to dominate for years to come. Chelsea can be an early save in 2016 to get to grips with the game and have a long save to try all the new wonderkids as it won't be too taxing or risky.

Good work as always,  I wonder how Falcao will play with so many good players at Chelsea. I think only if D. Costa gets injured.  :/

Jumping the gun a bit with Stones arent you?

Otherwise Chelsea do look like a great side to start a save with.

If it isn't Stones then it will be another defender but as this is a preview I decided to go with who is linked the most at the moment.

Well after the way they got carved apart by Man City i suspect they will be getting in a new defender

I hope it isn't Stones as he was effortless on Saturday...
