“I still fancy Chelsea” – Ian Wright reveals why Chelsea can win the Premier league title ahead of Liverpool & Man City
The Blues sit three points clear of second-placed Liverpool in the table, with Manchester City and West Ham making up the remainder of the top four after 10 matches.
However, Arsenal legend Ian Wright has backed Chelsea to win the Premier League title this season.
“At the start of the season I said Chelsea and I still fancy Chelsea, although they’ve got injuries now to Lukaku and Werner,” Wright said on David Seaman’s Seaman Says podcast.
“People say that Werner doesn’t score enough, but the fact is that Werner gives Chelsea so much and then Lukaku scores the goals.
“I still fancy Chelsea, but Liverpool are now getting themselves into a run of form that you’re going to find very difficult for them. They’ll just slip back into that form that they did when they dominated.
“It’s going to be City, Liverpool and Chelsea for me and I’m not sure with the fourth.
“I don’t know who are going to be finishing fourth at the minute. I’d love West Ham to stay there.”
