But it is a bit of an oxymoron when you put the phrase "Chelsea will not win the Premier League this season" and "but that doesn't we can't give its defence a good go from now until May". As a player why would they put a lot of effort into trying to defend the PL if they take the view that they are not going to win it anyway, whats the point. Its exactly what I mean by saying its a pathetic attitude, how can we get out of this bad form if the thinking from players and fans is so negative that we don't even bother and try and give it what we have got if in the back of the mind we already know its a lost cause?
