there is something about a side slotting the first chance that makes it really easy. If salah had slotted that first glorious chance today might have been much much easier. Chelsea can sit back now and control this one, safe in the knowledge that papace will be content to do damage limitation. we are only 4 behind leicester who play west ham. Thats my personal focus still. I rate that chelsea team too highly.
Chelsea have to go to West Ham and Citeh, and have Arsenal and Leicester at home finishing away at Villa. Plenty of scope for dropping points
yes but also will have momentum. It will be interesting as those are tough games absolutely but they are 100% going to be in the CL SFs and flying. I am still looking at those games they have more in hope that they do for leicester and west ham for us.
Palace really are a pathetic team, probably comes from the attitude of the manager. 'Just do enough' You'd think with a large number of their players being out of contract in the summer they'd be playing for their futures, either at the club or to attract a new club.
Chelsea are looking really good for the top 4. Solid in all areas and could win all their games including Citeh who could already be champions by then. Our best bet would be to take Leicester’s place. Man United are not secure yet.
They did but it looks like it was a blip. Maybe it is Palace but they look very good and full of confidence.
It's all about Leicester, forget Chelsea - they're not going to drop 3 more points than us before the end of the season. We can't afford to drop another point imo, even at Uniturd, and we need Leicester to have two or three bad weekends. Tall order, but that's our only hope.
Who knows. Let's not write anything off. The first thing is to win our games. After that anything could happen. Leicester only have one semi final to distract but have some tough games. West ham just have to chug along but have also tough games. Chelsea will have to focus on cl sf and complete the job v Porto. That's major. Utd should be too far ahead but could still drop points with europa and fall back in but you feel it has to be tomorrow. In the end Chelsea have far too much money put in to be fighting for 4th and it's a massive failure for them. Just like when di Matteo took over they could win the cl to take the bad look off this season. We start again v leeds. We have to man the **** up and take the chances. We also have to get ****ing snide. If wijnaldum and fabinho put their fouls in that villa goal never happens. Imo this is half the battle. We are too honest and too pussy. Threw the ball back to villa when they ran the ball out before even seeing their lad flop about
Chelsea have a lot of young lads so inconsistency is their issue making them unpredictable. They could easily drop more points or go on a decent run.
Points will definitely be dropped. We need this to be shared otherwise it will be difficult to catch up. Leicester and West Ham will drop points. Let’s not forget Spurs if they beat Man United tomorrow. They could recover their form if Mourinho gets his act together. It will go down to the last day.
Hm not sure about Leicester game. Feel like a draw will be best. If Leicester can drop points over next few games and get dragged in then opens up 2 spots. They have some relatively nice fixtures over next few weeks but finish with united chelsea and spurs.
another example of crap in the west ham game. Lino keeps flag down on clear offside and leicester lad gets and elbow in the face off the west ham thug. Flag ffs. thats concussion caused by rules.
so the guy today can see west ham are at least a yard on. oliver places the foot line for defender somewhere in the middle of his boot and throw the line for the west ham lad inside his armpit. if you look at jota yesterday they sought out the outside edge possible of jota's sleeve.
