Robben: we’ll reel in United

CHELSEA’S Dutch winger Arjen Robben insists the reigning champions are confident about retaining the Barclays Premiership crown even though they trail Manchester United by five points.

Robben was impressive in Chelsea’s 1-0 victory over Newcastle at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday and was only denied a goal by the thickness of an upright as the Blues closed the gap on United at the top.

Coach Jose Mourinho claims he is enjoying the new experience of chasing a team during December and Robben is adamant the title will stay in west London.
