3 reasons why Chelsea will get left behind next season

#1 The rest of the top teams are well settled and raring for glory

Pep and Mourinho have been able to get the better of each other at home

Chelsea are indeed falling behind, aren't they? Pep Guardiola has made Manchester City one of the most exciting teams in Europe and they will undoubtedly be the team to beat next season.

Manchester United seem to be finally settling down under Mourinho and they have garnered 19 points from a possible 30 against the top 6 opposition in the league. They have beaten the Chelsea, Liverpool, City, Spurs and Arsenal over the course of the last 3 months.

Liverpool are a force to be reckoned with and Klopp's heavy metal football could even triumph in Europe if everything works out in their favour. They have already signed Naby Keita for next season and the team is only bound to get stronger next season.

Tottenham Hotspur, with some minor improvements, will be able to challenge for the Premier League title next season.

As the season draws to a close, it looks more and more like it will be a 4 horse race for the Premier League title next season as Chelsea look set to undergo a rebuilding process.

With the growing uncertainty around Conte's future and top players seemingly set to depart, Chelsea will have a whole new set of problems before the new season starts. If they are to get a new manager, they will need time to adapt to a new style of play. While Conte was able to give them short-term success, this season has proved that it is not the kind of revamping they should be focussing on in the grand scheme of things.
