Optimistic Chelsea boss Rafa Benitez reckons the Blues can still win the Barclays Premier League, despite an indifferent start to his controversial reign at Stamford Bridge.
Two clean sheets are seen by the Spaniard as some sort of promise and potential of better things to come, but the jury is still out – and will probably remain so for some time.
Victories, and only victories, will get the Chelsea fans back on side but they might have to wait for the first win under Rafa as West Ham, on their own turf, will be no pushovers.
We’re going for a home win, and we’re also predicting that Manchester United might come unstuck at Reading. What do you think?
