Paul Scholes believes Chelsea are not ready to win the EPL

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes believes that Chelsea are not yet ready to win the premier league.

Paul Scholes pointed out the fact that creativity is still lacking in the team as he believes the Midfield duo, Mason Mount and Kai Havertz need time to develop.

Scholes speaking in a TV interview said: “I just think there’s a little bit a lack of creativity on the pitch. (N’Golo) Kante does what he does brilliantly well and he’s got two young players next to him in Mason Mount and Kai Havertz, who I think will be sensational players, but that’s why I don’t think they’ll win the league this year.

“It’s a bit early for them. They’ll be up there, close to Manchester City and Liverpool I just don’t think they are that ready.

“But in a year’s time with a bit of experience, know-how, bit more quality they’ll be up there challenging.”

Chelsea lost 2-1 to Wolves on Tuesday, after allowing their 1-0 lead slip away. This has now made it two successive defeats for the London side, with Everton being the first one.
