Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink believes that the defending champions can still make the top four Premier League finish and win the Champions League and the FA Cup despite their disastrous start to the season.
Hiddink, who took over as the caretaker boss in his second spell after the sacking of Jose Mourinho last week, said that their target was to secure the fourth position, and called on his embattled team to show their real potential to achieve these targets, the Mirror reported.
Chelsea are currently 15th in the league standings and are 11 points off fourth place in the Premier League. They will host Watford on Saturday.
