LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea will be more equipped to challenge for the Premier League title next season but will push Arsenal and Manchester City all the way in this campaign, manager Jose Mourinho said on Tuesday.

Mourinho's side should maintain the pressure on the top two when they host struggling West Ham United on Wednesday although the Portuguese is playing down his side's hopes of finishing above them in May.
