Chelsea’s consistent cycles of success and failure must be stabilized by Antonio Conte.
In the world of business, everything is based around cycles. The cyclical process of markets and money fluctuate over lengthy periods of time, causing recessions and inflations. In football, this happens often, as clubs have dips and breakthroughs in their long-term plans.
At Chelsea Football Club, these cyclical changes are all too common, although they have occurred at alarmingly quick fluctuations of late. Chelsea have won the league in two of the last four seasons, but in the two seasons that they didn’t hoist the trophy, they didn’t even come close to challenging.
This is a worrying sequence of events for the Blues, and their struggles are largely down to their toxic boardroom, and their irrational decision-making. This is making life difficult for the current manager, Antonio Conte.

In 2014-15, Chelsea won the Premier League by an impressive 8 points, and things looked bright for the Blues in Jose Mourinho’s second stint as manager. This all came crashing down just the next season, as Chelsea shockingly spent the majority of the year in the bottom half of the table, and finished the season in 10th place.
It was a campaign that sent shockwaves through the footballing world, and things were looking bleak for Chelsea’s future. Yet, Antonio Conte steered them to a historic league title just the next season.
These complete 180-degree transformations are simply unsustainable, and Chelsea must spend a few years finding their feet, stabilizing a long-term plan, and sticking with one manager throughout that process.
