Interim coach Rafael Benitez says Chelsea has no thoughts about a title challenge despite closing on the Manchester clubs after a fourth straight victory.
Benitez's side's 2-1 win at Everton on Sunday moved it to within four points of second-placed Manchester City with a game in hand.
But it remains 11 points adrift of leader Manchester United and despite clear progress being made by the Stamford Bridge club, Benitez maintains it is too soon to consider Chelsea a potential challenger.
