Neville reckons Chelsea are two players and a 'proper manager' away from a Premier League title challenge. Are they 'nearer' than Man Utd?
Gary Neville explains why Chelsea may be ‘nearer’ than Man Utd to the Premier League titleGary Neville has explained why he thinks Chelsea may be “nearer” to a Premier League title challenge than Manchester United, despite the current gulf in their points tallies.
Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, Bruno Saltor and Frank Lampard have all had a stint in charge and the Chelsea decision-makers are currently conducting a thorough search for a new permanent appointment. “Obviously they’re short. They’re short of a manager, they’re short of a centre-forward. I think the goalkeeper could be better,” said Neville on“But I just thought when I was watching them [against Liverpool], Wesley Fofana the centre-back I thought was fantastic, they’ve got Benoit Badiashile on the bench, Kalidou Koulibaly is obviously a half-decent defender and the two full-backs have got the ability – if they stay fit – to be the best in Ben Chilwell and Reece James.
“I thought, if you put a proper manager there and you get a couple of decent signings, are they nearer than maybe Manchester United are?
