SAF thinks that Chelsea will be somewhere near the top of the table come May and he also thinks they can go all the way in the Champions League.

"Chelsea have made a great start and you would have to say they have a great chance.

"They haven't done much wrong since the start of the season. You keep looking for them to hit some kind of blip, but they haven't hit one yet.

"They've hit the ground running and got into a winning run right away, which is just what they wanted.

"They've had a bit of luck, but all of us have that, and it evens itself out over a season.

"The great start they've had has allowed them to get rid of all the questions over who they bought in the summer, and how they're going to keep all those players happy.

"Chelsea are winning, and that's the important thing. It settles everyone at the club. Having such a good start has taken away a lot of those pressures.

"They've also had a great start in the Champions League, and you'd have to say they're one of the potential winners, given the way they've played.
