While Liverpool have been the team to beat this season, Chelsea showed during their FA Cup clash early this month that they have what it takes to become title challengers next term, and with more consistency, Lampard’s men have the potential to compete for major honours going forward.

The Reds have proven that giving youth a chance could save millions in the bid to build a world-class line-up, with Trent Alexander-Arnold already establishing himself as one of the best right-backs in the world at just 21.
