So when I speak to anyone about this upcoming Premier League season everyone says Chelsea are the team to beat its all about Jose Mourinho and his squad built with a crazy winning mentality .They look at me like I'm crazy when I say Man utd can do it to be fair though I always believe in Man utd it's just the way us utd fans think even in the dark days there always this voice saying were utd we've come back from worse, I've got to thank Sir Alex Ferguson for that he installed a never give up attitude in everyone that followed his utd team. Don't get me wrong you would be daft to completely rule them out because at the end of the day Jose know's how to win and so do the senior players in his team. However do I believe that Chelsea are outright favorites to win the League ?
Well don't get me wrong I do believe there the team to beat but what worries me is they seemed to have fallen for the same mistake as Man City. They've really let this transfer window pass them by. Winning a League is incredibly hard but whats harder is defending it because from the day you lift the trophy all the other teams in the league mark you out as the one's to beat. Last year Man City didn't strengthen enough to defend there title and there performances suffered towards the end team's almost figured out how to contain there team and they had no surprise factor to throw at teams in moments were games were tight.
I fear the same could happen to Chelsea this season they have signed Falcao and Asmir Begovic
solid signings don't get me wrong but Falcao is rebuilding his confidence and even thought I do believe he will regain it it's not an instant impact signing plus Begovic again a quality signing but is there to compete with Courtois. I worry that Chelsea will be found out and there missing that punch they had last season. Last year Diego Costa came in and was a breathe of fresh air to the Premier League but this season teams no his game style now he is he's a marked man and they will create Plans to stop him the same goes for Eden Hazard he's the Big name now the best player in the league he will need to adapt to this and don't get me wrong I think both Hazard and Costa will continue to be top players and they can still win Chelsea the league both of them are world class. I just worry that when there having a hard day who do Chelsea have as that unknown quantity to come on and change the game ? I suppose only time will tell and come the mid season we will see. Overall I still think Chelsea will be up there come the end of the season but I do think its a point worth thinking about all the other big four teams have add to their squads and the Gap in Quality that was so apparent last season looks like its leveled out.
What do you all think ? Do Chelsea need more strength ?
Thanks
Samuel
