Manchester - Chelsea this season arguably failed miserably. But according to Wayne Rooney, the Blues remain the strongest rivals Manchester United next season.
Armed with a double degree earned last season, looked at Chelsea this season with high optimism. Had led the standings early in the season, Chelsea actually decreased near the end of the year.
Had to climb again, but finally could not contain MU a champion. As a result they end the 2010/2011 season without a title and led to the dismissal of Carlo Ancelotti.
Obviously this is not good for Chelsea's capital to meet next season. Moreover, MU will certainly clean up and strengthen his squad in order to maintain the English League title.
But Rooney did not agree with it because of his Chelsea squad remains solid and strong.With players like Didier Drogba, Fernando Torres, Frank Lampard, John Terry and Petr Cech, 'The Blue' is a serious competitor of The Red Devils.
"Chelsea will still be our main rivals in the league next season," said Rooney told talkSPORT.
"They are very strong and powerful, and ended the season pretty well," he continued.
In addition, Rooney also wary of traditional teams other kinds of Liverpool and Arsenal, who predicted would rise next season.
Moreover, stretching Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur as a dark horse also can not be underestimated. Especially City who have the power of big money and can buy the players they want.
This is what makes Rooney think if the English Premier League 2011/2012 season will run exciting and tight until the end.
"Chelsea, Manchester City, Spurs, Liverpool and Arsenal will fight for the big four," he admitted.
"In fact it would be tight. It's not a surprise for you all if there is one team that will finish in the top two. The teams at the bottom of the board to develop. Playing in the more difficult away games this season," he concluded.
