Rio Ferdinand insists Chelsea will believe they can take Manchester City all the way in the Premier League title race as he hails the 'winning mentality' of Thomas Tuchel's team

Rio Ferdinand believes that Chelsea will feel they will be able to compete with Manchester City for the Premier League title this season.

Having won the Champions League last season, Chelsea lifted further silverware on Wednesday as they beat Villarreal on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup. Romelu Lukaku is set to join from Inter Milan and Ferdinand was full of praise for the winning mentality that Thomas Tuchel's squad possess.

Ferdinand stressed that given the impact Tuchel has made there will now be greater expectation on Chelsea to be successful.
