| Danny Mills backs Jose Mourinho in title race |
DANNY MILLS believes Chelsea still have a chance at retaining their Premier League title this season.
The Blues languish 16th in the standings after picking up just three win from their opening 12 matches.
But Mills says Jose Mourinho still has a chance of turning his side's season around ahead of today's visit of Norwich, who sit one place and one point higher.
The former England international says his 2000/01 campaign with Leeds proves Chelsea can bounce back as they're no runaway title contenders this term.
“At Leeds in the early 2000s, we were 15th and went on to finish fourth," Mills told 5 live Sport. "Everyone says it is not possible to go on a late surge – but it is.
"You look at the quality of the rest of the Premier League, no-one is blowing it away. If Chelsea can get that win and go on a run they have the players to do it. The squad is still exceptional.
"At some point they will give someone a hiding to nothing. Norwich will be hoping ‘please not us today’."
