2) Chelsea (Rating: 7.5/10)
Front line: Diego Costa (£32m, 2014), Fernando Torres (£50m, 2011), Didier Drogba (Free, 2014); Cost to assemble: £82m.
Costa has got off to the perfect start at Chelsea, with two goals in his first two games. However, he will need to maintain his consistency throughout the season to stop the doubters who claim that the former Atletico Madrid hit-man was hugely overpriced.
Chelsea’s main worry will be that an injury to Costa would leave them very short up front. Drogba is still an inspirational figure at Stamford Bridge, but at 36 his best days are well and truly behind him. Torres’ horrific record with the club is showing no signs of improving any time soon, and the Spaniard must be demoralised at being third choice. It might be better for all concerned if Torres were to leave, and be replaced by a useful impact player.
