Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, has admitted his team were not at their best in their 1-0 win at Everton on Saturday.
The Blues kicked off their campaign with a victory at Goodison Park, thanks to Jorginho's first-half penalty.
However, Tuchel feels they were not at their highest level but expressed satisfaction at taking all three points.
Tuchel told Sky Sports: "We have struggled in the last seasons to get points here - and we have the points. A win is a win - it's the most important thing for everything but we have to get better.
"We are maybe not at the highest level - we have brought players in but they came in late, pre-season was a bit turbulent but the last week of training was promising.
"Some situations in the first half were quite good and second half I think we had simply not enough movement on the ball - with less movement, there were more ball losses.
"It was a bit of a strange second half without the rhythm from the team, and interruptions, but we hung in and did what was necessary to keep a clean sheet and we go from there."
