I think both clubs are in disarray in their own ways. Both have great managers but not idea players. United have good players on paper but who seem to have really poor attitudes and undermine the manager eventually.
Chelsea have spent a lot of money but have a completely new squad who have had little time together and are very raw.
It’s easy to say “Chelsea should because they spent 1bn”. But I am talking about their current squads, manager, board, situation etc
Chelsea aren’t really in disarray anymore. The worst of the transition is done as the owners took such an aggressive approach to just rip the plaster off and get to building the team as fast as possible.
I feel Chelsea have a better chance of winning the PL 1st as their situation is more of a glass half full one. Man Utd are more glass half empty with this air about the club that suggests the culture isn’t great at the moment.
Chelsea have pretty much a blank canvas of players for Poch to work with. Theres been a big emphasis on cultivating a healthy culture at the club. The club structure now is also set in place and functioning as it is meant to now.
With Man Utd I just feel that they’ll continue to stutter with patches of good form and then some nonsense drama with a player or 2 will stink the place up again.
