http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Branislav-Ivanovic-c7994 has gone on to issue a warning to Manchester City, as he stated that this coming season won’t be a walk in the park for the reigning English Champions.
Last season, Chelsea went on to win the Champions League, but ended up doing miserably in the league table, as they finished in the sixth spot.
City went on to win the league, but Ivanovic has insisted that the Blues will be looking to go on and claim the Premier League title this coming season.
He admitted that City might be on cloud nine at the moment, but told his opponents that they shouldn’t underestimate a team that is looking to prove its worth and make up for a poor season.
"Manchester United are always the first favourite when you look at the league," Ivanovic told reporters.
"They are always there. City won last year and they will have the motivation to do it again. But the other teams like us are trying to build something new. It's going to be very tough for City.”
"It was the same with us. When you win the league all the other teams, whether they are big or small, they fight and have extra motivation against you.”
"A lot of teams will be going for the title this season. The Premier League is the biggest challenge for any team. It is a long season."
The defender then went on to claim that he missed not having http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044 around, but wished the Ivorian the best of luck and hopes for him to do well in the future.
"It's really strange not having Didier around," the 28-year-old continued.
Chelsea have gone on to make a number of worthy additions to their squad this summer with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Eden-Hazard-c11863 being the biggest addition to the squad.
So far the team has been performing rather well in their pre season games and if they are anything to go by, then the Blues are going to be looking to win a number of trophies this coming season.
Nonetheless, it is now a wait to see just what Premier League team ends up winning the league this coming season.
