James Calls for Wins Amid Chelsea's Slump

Chelsea captain Reece James has spoken out about the team's challenging period, emphasizing a collective determination to return to winning ways. The Blues are currently enduring a four-game streak without a victory across all competitions. James himself has been a notable performer in recent matches, notably providing assists in draws against Arsenal and Atalanta, underscoring his impact even amidst the team's struggles. The England international made it clear that the squad's full attention is now on achieving wins.

Reflecting on the recent form, James stated the team's resolve to reverse the trend and leave past results behind. He highlighted the dropped points in the last three league games, stressing the need to avoid further ground loss to teams above them. The upcoming fixture against David Moyes' Everton presents a significant challenge, as the Toffees arrive with renewed confidence following two consecutive wins. James anticipates a tough contest, requiring full concentration throughout the match.

The match also marks former teammate Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's return to Stamford Bridge. While James looks forward to seeing him, he stressed that the priority remains securing the three points to improve Chelsea's standing in the league. He extended Christmas wishes to the fans, reinforcing the club's commitment to getting back on track during this festive and busy period of the season.
