Ray Wilkins, now a Skysports Pundit, has spoken of his old club and the fact that all the attention at the moment seems to be on Manchester.
Both sides up there have started the season well and have been impressive with their signings and their form.
However, Wilkins believes that Chelsea's players will be more than happy to not be the focus of attention and the underdogs this term.
He said:
You would have to say right now Wilkins is right, we are under dogs. Compared to those two, we haven't exactly set the world alight with our football so we are right to consider ourselves underdogs at the moment.
Like the say goes, it's a marathon not a sprint to win the Premier League title and having the experience for fighting up there in the top two for many a recent season, I am sure we will be there or thereabouts once again in May. Sir Alex Ferguson believes that's the case too!.
People are complaining alot about our "experienced players" on here at the moment but you have to remember, you need experience, you need winners in that dressing room and that's exactly what we have and it will help us once again this season.
I am more than happy for everyone to focus on United and City and for us to get on with our football. So if that means we ARE underdogs, then so be it.
Like I said, come May, I believe we will be anything but underdogs!.

“I’m sure the lads at Chelsea will be quite happy that no-one is talking about them.(Source)
In the last couple of years everyone has been talking about them, saying it will be Chelsea's title.
Knowing most of the guys in the changing room, they’re very determined and they’re all winners. It's going to be extremely interesting how this plans out.”
