Blues deserve to be champs but we’re gaining: Wenger

He said: “Chelsea have been the most consistent. They had more deeper periods than last year, but they still had enough consistency. As champions, they are the team to beat.

“This year we have been very, very far [away from Chelsea], but I feel the team has come a lot closer in the last few months. That is the target we will have next year in front of us, to show that we can be champions. I feel that teams like Manchester United and Liverpool have come closer this year.”
