Swansea boss, Paul Clement: Chelsea ready to dominate English Football for years

Chelsea will hope to increase their points tally in the English Premier League when they take on resurgent Swansea City under former Chelsea assistant coach, Paul Clement at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.

Paul and his team will also be hoping to produce similar performance they had when they went to Manchester City and Liverpool even as he recognized Chelsea's domination of the league already more than when he was still at Stamford Bridge and warmed that it's just  the beginning.

Clement said:  ‘What I remember about that season is how mature and strong the team was. Cech, Terry, Ballack, Lampard, Essien, Drogba – all strong characters.

‘They were right at their peak at that point. This is a younger team, a much younger team than when I was involved.


‘That’s not good news for a lot of the other clubs because you’ve got a squad that’s around 25, 26, I think the oldest is Cahill at 31.

‘So they’ve got a lot of players who are around 25, 26 – if they can keep that group together then they could be title contenders for the next three to four years.’
