EPL: ‘It’s too soon’ – Petit picks team that won’t challenge for title

Former Arsenal midfielder, Emmanuel Petit, has ruled out Chelsea from challenging for the Premier League title this season.

Petit believes it’s too soon for Xabi Alonso’s side to be considered a real challenger.

He also backed Arsenal to win the Premier League title again this season.

“As I said, I think Arsenal will win back-to-back Premier Leagues,” Petit told talkSPORT.

“As I said again, Chelsea will fight until the end for the title, but I think it’s probably too soon this season for Chelsea to be a real contender until the end.”

Chelsea finished in 10th position in the Premier League table last season.
