‘Just so strong’ – Joe Cole predicts Chelsea will win Premier League title ahead of Man Utd, City and Liverpool

Meanwhile Man Utd, who were tipped to be title challengers before the start of the season, are a huge nine points adrift of Thomas Tuchel‘s men.

And Cole, who won the Prem three times during his seven-year spell at Stamford Bridge, feels his former side are the best equipped to go all the way this season.

He told Coral: “I am throwing it out there now, Chelsea will win the league.

“I watch them every game, a lot of the time live working as a pundit at the games, and they are just so strong.

“They are hardly conceding any goals and the defence is the most important part of the team for winning a title, they have the strongest defence by miles.”

Chelsea have become a winning machine since Tuchel took over from Frank Lampard in January.

The German coach led his squad to Champions League glory over Manchester City at the end of last season.

And he has continued that momentum at the beginning of the 2021-22 campaign, winning 26 Prem points out of a possible 33.

They also have the best defensive record in the league having conceded just four goals – and two of those have come from the penalty spot.

But they were left frustrated heading into the international break after being held to a 1-1 draw at home by Burnley on Saturday.
