The Blues have faced plenty of uncomfortable questions this season while sides sat around them in the Premier League table have been widely praised
Gary Cahill says criticism of Chelsea is “tiring”, with hypercritical doubters quick to hail other sides positioned around the Blues in the Premier League table.
As defending champions, much was expected of the Blues this season and they have flattered to deceive.
Antonio Conte has fallen under mounting pressure as a result, but a top-four finish and major silverware is still a real possibility for those at Stamford Bridge.
Cahill believes that makes the intense scrutiny placed on Chelsea unfair, with the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham – who have been widely heralded – having fared little better in the grand scheme of things.
