Jose Mourinho believes there will be a six way battle for the Premier League title, the Special One believes that his Chelsea side can beat Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur to Premier League glory.
Mourinho only managed a third place finish in the first season of his second spell as Chelsea boss. However the former Porto, Inter Milan and Real Madrid boss stated before the season had started that he didn’t expect Chelsea to win the Premier League title. However the Portuguese manager believes his side has what it takes to win the title.
Talking about Chelsea’s hopes for the campaign Mourinho said, ‘If we didn’t think we could win the league we wouldn’t be here working so hard. We respect our opponents and their ambitions, because they have the same ambitions as us, but we want to win the Premier League and we are ready for that.’
When asked about the race for Premier League glory Mourinho added, ‘People can speak about other leagues but England is the only country where five or six teams can win the title. Football is about competitiveness every weekend and that only happens in the Premier League.
