Wolves boss claims Chelsea strongest team in Premier League
Wolves boss Mick McCarthy is doubly confident of Chelsea – one, to win the Premier League title and then potential winners of the Champions League.
McCarthy takes his side to Stamford Bridge tomorrow bidding to halt Chelsea's title charge, in the short team at least.
McCarthy, whose side have slipped into the relegation zone after collecting just three points from their last six games, said: "I think they are the strongest team.
"If they end up being the best team in the Premier League they will not be far away from being one of the winners in Europe."
McCarthy is full of praise for the impact made by Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti and added: "I have been impressed, but he wasn't a rookie manager was he?
"He has won the Champions League twice so I am not surprised with what he has done.
"He has got a good group of players and they look to me like they were under Jose Mourinho when he first arrived.
"They look a really happy bunch together and there is no tittle tattle coming out of there anymore."
