Chelsea winger Noni Madueke insists the squad is good enough to challenge for silverware this season.
Madueke says the players who have arrived are well aware of the "project" the club is building.
He told chelseafc.com, "You know the blueprint of the club. If they have recruited you to come and join the project it says something about your ability. That's good to know in the back of your mind.
"But it's not just about recruiting talented players. It's about making a winning team, and that is the next step we have to take this season. Silverware is so important to Chelsea and that is the direction we have to head in for sure.
"If you look at the squad we have, the depth, we would be doing ourselves a disservice if we thought we couldn't be right up there."
