He noted that the Blues have one key advantage over the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City as the battle for who claims this season’s trophy intensifies.

The Blues have started the season in fine fashion, picking up 29 points from their opening Premier League matches.

Thomas Tuchel’s side defeated Leicester City 3-0 on Saturday despite being without star striker Romelu Lukaku.

And Terry believes that Chelsea’s strength in depth gives them an advantage over the other title challengers.

“Liverpool look a threat, they’ve got so many goals in them going forward,’ he told BeIN Sports.

“Just having that threat upfront, we had it at Chelsea years ago with [Didier] Drogba and [Arjen] Robben and those type of players.

“You just feel like you’re going to outscore other teams.

“I think the strength and depth in their [Chelsea’s] squad looks to me by far the best in the league.

“They’ve coped really well without him [Lukaku] and they’ve got players who turn up and score goals as well. I’ve been really impressed with how they’ve dealt with it.

“Having Lukaku back in the run-up to Christmas will be a big boost as well.”

The Blues face Manchester United in their next Premier League with the hope to sustain their leadership Premier League summit.
