Attack is the best form of defense and this holds true in every sense if it is Barclays Premier League. Chelsea and Manchester City both the teams have been playing an entertaining brand of football this season.
The Premier League’s top two boast of an envious attacking lineup which is bettered by handful of teams. City’s battery of strikers is rivaled to some extent by their local rivals United while Chelsea’s attacking midfielders are unrivaled in Premier League or at the max matched by City’s attack.
City with Sergio Aguero, Edin Dzeko and Stefan Jovetic are a troika which is more than capable of blasting the best of defenses. With the addition of Wilfred Bony, they have just gone much meaner and ruthless. The dash of physicality which City lacked upfront is too hard to notice. Along with this, a attacking midfield of David Silva, Jesus Navas and Samir Nasri is perfect to feed this strike force. But still somehow they fail to match Chelsea’s more astute attacking force combined.
Aguero has been a beast of a player for the citizens since his arrival.
With Diego Costa, Chelsea has found the last piece of the jigsaw but still they’re no match for City’s strikeforce. But where Chelsea trumps the Citizens is in the attacking midfield and wide areas. Eden Hazard, Oscar and Juan Cuardado are not only gifted but also industrious attackers. They are not only tireless runners with exception of Hazard but they still put in a shift.
Diego Costa is the man for the blues when it comes to scoring.
This is what sets them a notch above their challengers and defending chasmpions’ lazy attack who is more dependent on Aguero and Toure combination. In deeper positions too, Chelsea’s Cesc Fabregas gives them edge over City’s Toure who is slowly showing weariness.
After all this, it is too close to call but still Chelsea holds a trump card over the defending champions as they continue their march to Premier League.
