Chelsea are currently third in the Premier League, and the Blues have a chance to usurp struggling Manchester City who are second and a point ahead of the Blues.

Chelsea are nine points behind league leaders Liverpool, and must continue to win games to keep in touch with the Reds.

Following Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Leicester City, ex-Watford striker Troy Deeney, showed his disappointment at the Chelsea defence.

Troy Deeney argues that Chelsea would’ve been good enough to challenge for the Premier League title if they had a good goalkeeper and a strong defence.

Keeping clean sheets have been hard for Chelsea this season, and it was disappointing Chelsea couldn’t keep a clean sheet against Leicester City.

“Right now they should be looking at [the title race],” Deeney said on talkSPORT.

“But I still think that goalkeeper [Robert Sanchez] and the defenders keep letting in poor goals.

“That should have been an easy 2-0 win, if not a 3-0 win. Just open at the back today and I think that’s why they have to go for top four right now.

“Unless in January they go out and get a couple of signings, that backline is going to cost them.”
