Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand was amazed with Chelsea’s fighting spirit, as the Blues fought hard to win it late against Stoke City at the Bet365 Stadium.
For Rio Ferdinand, Chelsea have won the league already, as he believes there’s no yeam consistent enough to compete with Chelsea in the title race.
“These boys are running away with it,” the former Manchester United defender told BT Sport.
“There’s no one consistent enough to stay with them in the league.
“They’ve found a way of playing, a formula, an understanding of the manager’s ideas.
“I think he [Conte] has to take huge credit, the season before… terrible season, so far off the pace.
“He’s come in and, based on repetition, built an understanding of how he wants the team to play and the players are really putting it in, he’s run away with the league this year.”
