Chelsea: "Greatest club in the world"

From PremierLeague.com

Quote:
Liverpool's American co-owner George Gillett has cast doubt over his club's ability to claim the Barclays Premiership title next season.

But although the arrival of the Americans has guaranteed a substantial summer war chest for the Spaniard, Gillett is not convinced the likes of United and Chelsea can be caught straight away.

He said: “I don't know if we are capable of challenging for the title next year. We want to make progress but it is a multiple-year programme. We want to challenge but we won't do it overnight."

“Manchester United are formidable competitors, Arsenal are one year older with brilliant young players and Chelsea are perhaps the greatest club in the world. They're not going to get any worse.
I don't think that Chelsea are better than united at all. United have grown as a team together. Chelsea have had a team but with load of new players, I think United are a better team, BUT Chelsea will win the league next season. Hope that isn't a contradiction.

Disagree - the best team rarely wins the champions league, BUT I don't think they are the best in the world, definitely not at the moment. Maybe next season...

I think chelsea will be very good next season. They look like they will not buy any major players so their team will have a good time to get to know one another a little bit better than they did during last season,

Chelsea!?!??! no way. They av got no confidence from this season at all apart from the FA Cup and I'm not saying Chelsea arent a good side but they'd be behind United and Liverpool (hopefully ) next season

Man Utd set the benchmark in 1999. I don't think Chelsea are quite up there yet with the likes of that 1999 team.

Not the benchmark. The ultimate achievement.

The ultimate achievement would be the quad. League champions, FA Cup winners, League Cup winners, Champions League winners.

Followed by the Charity Shield/Community Cup/whatever it's called nowadays.
