Chelsea are third in the league table right now – just two points behind league leaders Tottenham Hotspur, and second-placed Liverpool. The Blues have found their groove and have been performing well at both ends of the pitch.
Joe Cole, who won the Premier League thrice with Chelsea, believes that Frank Lampard’s side has no glaring weakness in their starting XI right now. He said:
The former Chelsea midfielder heaped praise on the new signing and pointed out that the defensive signings have helped stop the leakage of goals. Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva, and Edouard Mendy have been rock solid at the back and have managed to help the club end their biggest worry from last season. Joe Cole said:
Joe Cole is not the first pundit to put pressure on Chelsea and claim that they are Premier League title contenders currently. The Stamford Bridge outfit have been backed by several experts on Sky Sports and also by Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho.
Sevilla manager Julen Lopetegui has been the only one apart from Joe Cole to add that Chelsea are contenders for the Champions League as well.
