Chelsea have had a good start to life under Enzo Maresca as they sit third in the Premier League after 11 matches. 

The Blues headed into the international break off the back of a 1-1 draw to title hopefuls Arsenal in a game where goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Moises Caicedo led Maresca’s side to a point at Stamford Bridge.

Their biggest issue this season has been at the back as the Blues have only been able to keep one clean sheet in 11 games, something that Enzo Maresca may want to address in January.

If the Blues can sure up their back line, there is no reason why they can’t challenge the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City to a Premier League title thanks to star players Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson in attack.

Chelsea have never really filled the void that was left after Thiago Silva departed in the summer, January could provide their best chance. Press the next page to see three players they could bring into the defence.
