Chelsea’s David Luiz issues warning to Manchester United
Chelsea’s January acquisition David Luiz has issued a warning to Manchester United. Luiz has claimed that the Blues are going all-out in a bid to snatch the Premier league title out of United’s hands. The defender also insisted that his side would knock
the Red Devils out of the Champions League when the two teams face each other in the quarter-finals of the tournament.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707, Luiz is turning out to be a much better bargain
than the Spanish striker.
Torres has found it difficult to adjust to life at Stamford Bridge so far, having failed to find the back of the net since his move from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809. In stark contrast to Torres, Luiz has been having no problems in clicking with his new team.
The former Benfica man primarily plays in a defensive role, but has already put Torres to shame by scoring two crucial goals for the Blues. He was on target once again during Chelsea’s vital Premier League encounter against Manchester City over the weekend,
scoring the opening goal to help his side clinch all three points. That victory lifted the Blues into third place in the standings, nine points behind leaders Manchester United.
However, Chelsea have a game in hand over the Red Devils, leading Luiz to believe that his side can still close the gap on United. The two clubs are in direct competition for more than just the Premier League trophy. Chelsea and Manchester United will face
each other in the quarter-finals of the Champions League as well.
Speaking on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786’s’ title chances on both fronts, Luiz said, “We want to do everything this season. We want to catch United in the Premier League and beat them in the Champions League. We have to believe - we can win the title.”
He added, "There are still many games and a lot of points to play for.”
Chelsea are currently in third place in the League standings with 54 points.
