EPL: No team will like to play against them – Gary Neville names club to win title

Former Manchester United captain, Gary Neville has backed Chelsea to win this year’s Premier League title.

Neville said this following Chelsea’s Premier League 1-0 win over Brentford on Saturday.

According to him, no team in the Premier League would like to play against Thomas Tuchel’s side this term.

Chelsea are presently on top of the English Premier League table with 19 points from 8 games.

“I think Chelsea can win the title. I know people say [Manchester] City and Liverpool, you can’t disagree with that after what they have done over these last three or four years,” Neville told Sky Sports.

“City’s performance at Chelsea a couple of weeks ago was incredible. But I do think this Chelsea team are resilient and they are tough to play against.

“I can’t think that any team in the league would like to play against them. That was a Chelsea team that had players missing as well, they have got so many players to come back. I think they are in with a great shout of winning the title, I really do.”
