Chelsea players, staff, and fans are well aware that the team has gone through a difficult period in the past few weeks. However, Jorel Hatto remains confident about the future and believes the team can achieve its goals in May. Chelsea suffered four consecutive defeats in the past 11 days, including a 0-1 loss to Newcastle United, followed by heavy defeats to Paris Saint-Germain and Everton.

The team lost 0-3 to Everton in their last match and will then go on a two-week international break. According to the schedule, the team will return to the field on April 5th to host League One side Portwell in the FA Cup quarter-final.

Jorel Hatto stated that the team had recently played a series of high-intensity matches, so the international break might be a good opportunity for adjustment . He said, "Everyone can use this time to seriously consider how to improve. However, I still have full confidence in this team and believe we can achieve our goals this season. We are still in the FA Cup and also have a chance to finish in the top four of the Premier League, so we must keep looking ahead."

When discussing the reasons for the team's 0-3 defeat to Everton, he added: "It's hard to pinpoint exactly what the problem was, but this loss was very painful. We must accept reality and move on. It's an international break, and everyone has time to think about the upcoming games. In this match, Everton started strongly and put a lot of pressure on Chelsea in the first 20 minutes."

Jorel Hatto continued, "We gradually found our rhythm and gained the upper hand. But then the game changed, with a brilliant pass from James Garner and a superb shot from Beto giving the home team the lead."

"We could have quickly equalized if it weren't for Jordan Pickford's crucial save. Enzo Fernandes' shot could have led to a goal, but England's number one goalkeeper made a world-class save. He saved Enzo's shot again at the start of the second half to help the team maintain the lead."

"This goal was crucial, and then Beto scored again on a quick counter-attack, while Iliman Ndiaye's brilliant performance in the last 15 minutes sealed the victory."

When asked if the team lacked confidence when they were down 0-1, Jorel Hatto said, "No, I don't think it was a confidence issue. Despite being behind, we still created chances and even controlled the game at times. But once the opponent extended their lead to 2-0 and 3-0, the game became very difficult to turn around."

"In the first 15 minutes of the match, the opponent's pressing was very effective, but we gradually took control of the game and created many opportunities. However, they retreated to their own half for most of the time, making it very difficult to score. Although we tried our best, our performance was still not ideal, and we ultimately lost."
