Title Run In

Still too early to count anyone out imo. Arsenal and Liverpool might not be destroying the top top teams but they've both made mince meat of the rest of the table, which we've had problems with.

would be lucky not to lose let alone winning

Another 3-0 is it?

Thats the problem they've had in past season which has cost them.Getting points against the top sides and not the rest.This time however..all change really and see the massive difference..sadly...

Not totally convinced that we`ll win the league this season if i may be brutally honest...not until our striker and centre mid field positions are substantially improved.....2nd or 3rd are our best placings.

[blu35_army 551]

so it depends on how many goals that Oscar, Hazard and Willian can make??? still,,if our trio not burnout until end of the season though...

I don't think that Jose firmly believes that we can win the league this year. He's said quite a few times in the interviews about how strong Man City are(strikers department) and reminds everyone about the amount of experience in their side.

Although it does not mean he won't try to challenge for it but seems to me that he has made clear that we should not expect the title or even feel bad later if we fail to win it. He keeps on saying that he's building for a squad which will dominate for the next man years so its understandable to see progress not hitting straight to success from the first year.

Last time it worked for him because he had the chance to pick his own players and form his team.Now he just needs 2-3 players to complete his squad and then he'll be happy with and confident with our chances for any title.

This season, it's better not to keep our expectations high. A top 3 finish,quarter final finish or above in the Champions League and FA cup would be a decent achievement this season.More could have been achieved if we had a proper striker.

That is what he said in public, he is probably telling the team we are winning it at Anfield.

Just reading this thread has made be nervous about the title race but at the same time reassured me that we can actually do it. City will be a tricky one but I think that if Jose lines up 4-3-3 against City with their 4-4-2 we could cause an upset. Obviously Yaya is our worry but this season and especially against Swanswea he seems to fancy himself as a striker and likes to leave space in midfield. If we play a high-pressing counter attack game against them at the Etihad I really fancy our chances. Willian and Azpi I'm 100% sure will take care of zabaleta and navas.

West Ham home on wednesday, City away on monday. Definitely one of the most important week of our season.

Sky is the limit if we win these two games (the citeh one in particular).

[Spike 12,049]

I wonder if most people would rather win as a squad player than lose as a key player?

[Hostedenis 556]

Spike, are you drunk again?

[1chelsea 864]

Drunking comment there dude

[duo11bluecl 207]

Is over. Terrible, terrible stuff.

[Thendo 1,088]

Not over, still possible but we really need to take either 1 or 3 points against City on monday...

[duo11bluecl 207]

City difficult games left:

Us at home

Arsenal away

MU away- not really hard

Everton away

Liverpool away

I can see them dropping 2 points against us if we are lucky, but then again we will be dropping 2 ourselves so nothing to brag about. The rest I actually think they could win all, maybe apart from Liverpool. Overall our chances are as good as over imo.
