5 players who have underperformed for Chelsea this season 

#1 Pedro

Pedro in action for Chelsea

With two goals and two assists to his name, in 586 mins of playing time across 11 games, Spanish winger Pedro has failed to make a significant impact in the Premier League.

In what can only be described as a poor start to the season for a player of his calibre, manager Antonio Conte might look for reinforcements in January to bolster his attacking options. Pedro could have made his mark on the team during the start of the season while Eden Hazard was out injured and secure his spot in the club's starting eleven.

The Spaniard will be eager to find his goalscoring touch and be part of Julen Lopetegui's plans for a place in the Spanish national team for the 2018 WC. Pedro has to quickly rediscover his form and put in captivating shifts to impress both Conte and Lopetegui, as the second half of the season is just weeks away.

An influential player for the club in last season's successful title victory, Pedro 's experience and attacking ability will be crucial in Chelsea's attempt to defend their Premier League title.
