And this is how manager Maurizio Sarri reacted to that 2-0 loss to Manchester City in last Sunday's Community Shield.
It was not exactly the best start to life at Chelsea for Maurizio Sarri..
Watch as Sergio Aguero scores twice as Manchester City ease to a 2-0 victory over Chelsea in the Community Shield.
So Chelsea have changed their permanent boss for the 10th time in the past 10 years. This graphic also does not even include Ray Wilkins and Steve Holland who were in charge for one game each in 2009 and 2015 respectively.
Huddersfield Town v Chelsea (15:00 BST)
Some very interesting quotes from new Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri in the build-up to this game.
The 59-year-old former Napoli boss has had just four weeks since his appointment to prepare for today's Premier League opener at Huddersfield, and has been without many of his leading players due to the World Cup.
"I hope that the second part of the season, for us, will be very good with a lot of points," Sarri said. "I expect in the first part of the season some problems."
Asked what issues he expects, Sarri added: "On the results. Maybe the performances in the first part of the season will not be in line with the potential of the squad. Maybe, in the first part."
Getting your excuses in early? After all, owner Roman Abramovich is not exactly known for his patience.
Huddersfield Town v Chelsea (15:00 BST)

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri starts his life as a Premier League manager by keeping Eden Hazard and Olivier Giroud on the bench after their World Cup exploits with Belgium and France respectively.
There are debuts for midfielder Jorginho and £71m goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, the replacement for Thibaut Courtois, who has gone to Real Madrid. Mateo Kovacic, who moved in the opposite direction on loan is not included and there is also a rare start for Ross Barkley in Chelsea's midfield.

Hello and welcome along. I'm Michael Emons and will be guiding you through all the action as Huddersfield entertain Chelsea.
The teams are in, so that seems a pretty decent place to start...
Premier League champions in season one, FA Cup winners in season two and then, like so many before him, Antonio Conte is booted out at Chelsea.
Winning the main two domestic trophies in his first two seasons at the club was not enough to save Conte as a failure to qualify for the Champions League saw him dismissed.
And so, once again, the Chelsea managerial baton is passed on.
Next up is another Italian, Maurizio Sarri, who has already lost in the Community Shield and had to find another goalkeeper. His league opener comes with a tricky looking away fixture at Huddersfield Town, so will it be a winning Premier League start for Chelsea's new boss?
