Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez claims that his side are capable of winning the Premier League this season.

Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez has claimed that his side are capable of winning the Premier League this season.

The 52-year-old Spaniard, who signed a six-month contract at Stamford Bridge in November, insists that he came to London to win silverware.

He said: "I could be working in Spain or Italy or China, earning massive money at a club in the middle of the table for 10 years. But I was waiting for a top side. I want to compete to win trophies.

"People have asked me questions about whether it's a two-horse race between the two Manchester clubs. But realistically, with three points for a game, if you win two or three in a row you have more confidence.

"If we win here and play like we did on Thursday, with the quality going forward and the right balance in defence, we can go on a run."

Chelsea currently sit third in the Premier League table, 10 points behind leaders Manchester United.
