Chelsea’s impressive form has not gone by unnoticed by the Premier League greats. According to Metro, even van Gaal admitted to the fact that both City and The Blues are a whole different story when it comes to the domestic competition. Manchester United who are now 10 points behind Mourinho’s side, will be trying to get as much as possible out of the Sunday game.

With Chelsea being the favorite, there are few who believe Manchester can actually win at Old Trafford. Despite playing at home, there are still a lot of things Man United are missing. The Blues on the other hand have managed a great win in the Champions League and step into the confrontation knowing that they have not lost a match since the Premier League started. With seven wins and just one draw against City, the odds seem to be in their favor. Van Gaal is well aware of the great form in which Chelsea are now. In an attempt to emphasize that Mourinho’s side is Manchester’s toughest adversary yet, the Dutchman managed to compare the Blues to a biscuit. After seeing that the reporters have a hard time understanding why he would refer to Chelsea in such a way, Van Gaal explained that he wanted to underline the power of the adversary his team is about to face. He pointed out that Chelsea are well above the level of the teams Manchester have faced up until now and that finding a way to defeat the Blues will be really difficult compared with all due respect to West Brom.
