Chelsea begin their bid to become only the fifth team in 119 years to win a third successive English league title this weekend with coach Jose Mourinho seeking a place in an even more exclusive club.
Only Huddersfield Town (1924-26), Arsenal (33-35), Liverpool (82-84) and Manchester United (99-01) have strung together a hat-trick while United boss Alex Ferguson is the only manager to have been in charge for all three of his side's wins.
It will be the sort of record Mourinho would like to have a piece of and as he won two successive Portuguese titles with Porto before moving to London he is also in line for his fifth successive league championship. |
