Former Watford striker Troy Deeney has named Chelsea as the most entertaining team in the Premier League this season.

Troy Deeney has admitted that Chelsea games are entertaining to watch, even when the team plays poorly.

Chelsea were languishing in mid-table for most of the campaign, but have enjoyed an impressive run of form, that saw the Blues climb to sixth ahead of the final day of the season.

“Weirdly, it’s Chelsea, purely because of their inconsistencies – never knowing which Chelsea is going to turn up when,”  Deeney said when asked who have been his favourite team to watch.

“They’re a great watch for the neutral, even when they’re awful. That’s what this league needs at times.

“Not everyone can be as dull and efficient as Manchester City. We need that variety and madness – and that’s what Chelsea bring.

“One week they’re s**t, the next they’re good. They’ve got exceptionally good players and a great manager in Mauricio Pochettino.

“I’m really interested to see how it plays out and develops next season – can they be as exciting while also winning more games?”
