Ghana coach Avram Grant has told his former club Chelsea to stop lingering on past glory.
The Blues are still battling their worst ever starts to a Premier League campaign having already suffered seven defeats even before the end of the first half of the season.
This is in sharp contrast to the impeccable form displayed by Jose Mourinho’s side last season where they lost just three times to emerge champions.
But Avram Grant has warned the Stamford Bridge outfit to forget their hot form last season as they struggle to find ways to salvage which is left of the current campaign.
"They need to stop living in the past and saying last season was like this and this," Grant told Sky Sports on his return to his base in the UK.
"Because then you could also say that two seasons ago was not so great.
"Last season was great for Chelsea, winning the League title, but now they need to see what is the problem, why are top players not performing like they need to play, why the team is not performing like they need to, and find a solution.
"The quality is there, the talent is there. There is no doubt about this."
Avram Grant led Chelsea to the finals of the Champions League back in 2008 when the Blues lost through a penalty shootout to Manchester United.
