Chelsea legend John Terry has taken to social media to respond to claims that Tottenham could actually win the Premier League.
In response to pundit Jamie O’Hara questioning if his former side could go all the way this season, the former Blues captain simply replied saying its is not possible.
It has certainly been an impressive start to life for Spurs this season, particularly under new manager Ange Postecoglou.
The Australian was briefly linked with the also vacant Chelsea job before the season got underway, however this never really developed and they ended up with former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.
While Chelsea’s ownership and supporters are more than pleased with the Argentine, it is hard not to acknowledge the former Celtic man leading his side to the top of the table at this early stage of the campaign.
One of their stars on the pitch has been James Maddison, who Chelsea reportedly overlooked as a potential signing this summer due to them not wanting to sign anyone older than 25.
With Spurs’ impressive start to the campaign, a narrative has already emerged with them potentially being able to win the Premier League title for the first time.
Terry meanwhile is not convinced. He replied “NO!” when O’Hara poised the question.
The response will no doubt delight Chelsea supporters, who will be somewhat be looking in envy at their London rivals right now.
They will have the opportunity to spoil their party in just two weeks though when they travel across the capital for a huge game on Monday Night Football.
With memories of Eden Hazard putting an end to their title hopes last time they were realistically challenging perfectly fresh in the minds, someone stepping up and putting a dent in their hopes this season would go down extremely well.
