Emile Heskey, the former England striker, has expressed his belief that Chelsea have what it takes to secure a spot in the Premier League top four this season.
After finishing sixth in the previous term, Chelsea made a managerial change, bringing in Enzo Maresca to replace Mauricio Pochettino.
During a talkSPORT interview, Heskey confidently stated that Manchester City is poised to secure their fifth consecutive league title.
His predicted top four lineup includes City in first place, followed by Arsenal, Liverpool, and interestingly, Chelsea.
In justifying his choice of Chelsea, Heskey emphasized his knowledge of the team dynamics and the manager’s style, noting, “I was intrigued with the players that he’s got.”
