Despite Chelsea’s recent 5-1 victory over Southampton, which brought them within seven points of leaders Liverpool, Leboeuf remains unconvinced that they can challenge for the title.
Chelsea’s strong performance yet not title contenders
Chelsea’s recent run of form, which has seen them become the league’s top scorers, has been impressive.
However, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has expressed doubts about his team’s ability to sustain a title challenge throughout the season.
Leboeuf concurs, emphasizing that Arsenal and Liverpool are the teams with the best chances to win the title, while Manchester City may struggle this season.
Chelsea’s confidence growing but still a long way off
While Chelsea may not be in the title race, their confidence is high. Players like Cole Palmer, Jadon Sancho, and Nico Jackson have been consistently scoring, and the team’s attacking setup is thriving.
Maresca is happy with the squad’s progress and believes that, although they may not be title contenders, they will certainly challenge for a spot in the top four.
