Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes has given Chelsea a cold shoulder by naming teams to win the English Premier League title this season.
The 46-year-old Premier League legend has mentioned two clubs competing in EPL as ones to lift the 2021- 2022 league title and Chelsea is not one of them.
Thomas Tuchel and his team have received a cut from the former Manchester United midfielder who chose Liverpool and Manchester City as front runners for the league trophy.
Scholes who spent his entire professional playing career at Old Trafford, snubbed the Blues despite currently sitting top of the table.

Chelsea has amassed 22 points in 9 games so far with a point ahead of Liverpool and two ahead of Manchester City who both occupy 2nd and 3rd spots respectively.
Scholes has been quoted by Metro UK to have said:
“Seeing Liverpool go to Old Trafford and win so convincingly, I think it will make City worry. ”
“Chelsea… I’m not sure, they have been great and I think they are better than I actually give them credit for, but I think [the Premier League title] it’s between Liverpool and Manchester City.”
“I think City watching that today, in the Champions League or the Premier League, that will frighten them.”
