MIKEL JOHN OBI has taunted Manchester United by claiming: You
dont deserve the title.
The £16million Chelsea star, who snubbed a move to Old Trafford
after a bitter row, insists the Blues have been the better
side.
The Nigerian said: We deserve to win the title because of our hard
work, determination, the injury crisis and everything.
I think United have been lucky at some points this season while
weve had a long list of injuries to cope with. Overall, weve been
the better team.
On the strength of our performances we would be worthy champions,
because we gave it our all.
Chelsea, who are at Arsenal tomorrow, are five points adrift of
United, who face local rivals City today.
But Mikel, 20, insists the title race is not yet over. He said:
Weve played more games than any club in England and still we are
showing our ability to win games under any circumstance.
Its only a few days to go but I am confident the title will
remain at Stamford Bridge. We deserve it.
United would need to lose at City for Chelsea to have a chance of
staging an upset when the two sides clash at Stamford Bridge on
Wednesday.
Mikel added: There is a possibility they could slip up.
Football is certainly an unpredictable game and anything could
still happen.
Mikel joined Chelsea after a huge transfer wrangle, with United
getting £12m compensation after he initially signed for the
Reds.
He added: This is where I wanted to be and the manager is someone
I adore.
His boss is already plotting for next season with the help of
skipper John Terry and vice-captain Frank Lampard.
Mourinho said: We are having our meetings and I have been speaking
with players.
I have been trying to explain the vision of the future. We have
already the pre-season plans on the walls of the dressing
room.
But Mourinho added: This season is not over. We have four matches
to play, four matches where we can win two trophies. We can win
one, or we can win none.
