Man Utd legend Scholes: Man City can afford to lose to Chelsea

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes feels Chelsea's clash with Manchester City will not be decisive today.

Scholes wrote in the London Evening Standard: "Manchester City's visit to Stamford Bridge tomorrow has been billed as a title decider.

"I don't think so. Even if Chelsea win and go eight points clear at the top, I don't think that is an irretrievable gap. City looked like they were about to get going and then they came unstuck with a draw against Everton, they lost to Arsenal and then Middlesbrough in the FA Cup.

"For all that, I would not be surprised if they beat Chelsea."
