'Chelsea a very rich horse' - Pellegrini

The Manchester City manager has laughed Jose Mourinho's belief that
his side are underdogs, while revealed a trio of players have resumed
some level of training

Feb 7, 2014 5:17:00 PM Manchester Citymanager Manuel Pellegrinihas
dismissed Jose Mourinho's claim that Chelseaare a "little horse" in
the race for the Premier League title.
Despite the west Londoners claiming a 1-0 win at the Etihad Stadium on
Monday, Mourinho insisted afterwards that his side were not favourites
for the title against much bigger opponents.
But Pellegrini has used Chelsea's massive spending under Roman
Abramovich - which continued in a busy January window - to rubbish his
counterpart's suggestion that the Blues are outmuscled.
"Maybe it is a small horse if the manager thinks like that. It can be
a little horse, but very rich," the Chilean told reporters ahead of
City's clash with Norwich.
