Cole: 'Make or break for blues'
Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole believes failure to beat West Ham later today will spell the end of the Blues’ title challenge.
Avram Grant’s side have endured negative headlines following last Sunday’s defeat by Tottenham in the Carling Cup final and now face a make-or-break week with the Barclays Premier League match at Upton Park followed by a Champions League meeting with Olympiacos on Wednesday.
Chelsea trail league leaders Arsenal by nine points and have won only one of their last five games – a 3-1 victory over Huddersfield in the FA Cup.
Former Hammer Cole told The Sun: “If we don’t win on Saturday and we don’t win at home to Olympiacos in the Champions League on Wednesday night, we can kiss goodbye to them.
“It really is nail-biting stuff from now until the end of the season.”
