Title Run In

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

So we need Liverpool to lose 2 matches and we need City to lose at least once more.

Wow, thats not so bad because im sure Everton are City's bogey team and im sure Norwich can do us a favor and win tomorrow. Then we come through, complete a 'smash and grab' at Anfield, and win out.

oh who am i kidding, the title is lost!

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

Assaidi scored a winner vs us back at the Brittania. (3-2).

And Fabio borini also scored the winning penalty today for Subderland. (2-1).

*Both are on loan from Liverpool.

[Reddish-Blue 2,347]

We just handed the title to Liverpool...they can even afford to lose against us at Anfield

The wankfest over Gerrard will be too much to handle...

If only we could have beaten Crystal Palace and Sunderland...

I hope we do beat them so City can win it -- anyone but the scousers!

I think the title will end as follows:

Liverpool and Norwich draw.

We beat Liverpool at Anfield.

Chelsea and Liverpool both have 78 points going into the last two games, Liverpool lead on GD.

Meanwhile Manchester City beat West Brom and Crystal Palace while losing to Everton, leaving them on 77 points.

Liverpool beat Palace, Chelsea beat Norwich, Manchester City beat Aston Villa.

Last game of the season: Liverpool 81, Chelsea 81, Manchester City 80.

Manchester City beat West Ham.

Liverpool draw with Newcastle.

Chelsea beat Cardiff.

Chelsea 84

Manchester City 83

Liverpool 82

Sorry lads, it's not our season. Our lack of an English core in the team has cost us the EPL. If you look back to our title winning seasons, Lampard has been the key player in all of them. Without that English blood pumping in our midfield we are shit. Our other boys aren't interested in winning the Premier League as they only came to Chelsea for the CL. Let's face it, we have mercenaries, not blokes who love the shirt. Unless we buy players like Barkley and Shaw, Liverpool will enjoy a massive spell at the summit of this competition. They have that core of English heart that we need. We'd rather buy players that sell shirts, not win titles.

The best business Liverpool did was selling us Torres, ever since we have been trying to fix that problem. It has led to us selling Sturridge to them, it has led to the departure of Drogba and has given Liverpool the platform to build a title winning team. (they bought Suarez with Torres money)

No, they didn't. Suarez was already bought. They bought Carroll with Torres money and, subsequently, the likes of Downing and Adam in the summer.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I dont see Liverpool losing to Norwich...Suarez always scores hattrick against them.

Hoping for a draw, but considering the current situation in PL where everything is going in Lpool plan, they will probably win against norwich by big difference.

Pathetic post. As if you need to be English to want to win the PL. Just ridiculous.

Lol, I'm all for an English core but this is bollocks.

[Reddish-Blue 2,347]

The title won't go to City... If Liverpool win 3 out of 4 remaining games, they will have 86 points

City have to win all 5 games to get 86 points...and from what i've seen, they're going to drop points in at least one of their remaining fixtures.

Not saying "you have to be English to win the premier League". You need that English core to remind the rest of the idiots what they are playing for. I don't need to explain myself to a guy that started supporting Chelsea when we signed Hazard.

[gary gordon 1,777]

Skipper, instead of using stupid words like Bollocks, prove me wrong. Let's actually have a debate as to why Chelsea have choked this season. Why can we beat PSG at home but not Sunderland? Why do we bottle games that we should easily win, but end up shooting ourselves in the foot. Oscar played like he was forced to yesterday.

[thekid9 418]

Can't believe people are still hiding behind the " no striker" excuse.....YES it is a factor...but can you not see that the three behind are creating bugger all as well? we have ONE decent CDM in Matic and that's it!

the team is farked and it's not going anywhere quickly.

Better supporter then you apparently considering the fact you've just called all of the non-English players on our team idiots and mercenaries.

If you genuinely believe all non-English Chelsea players don't want to win the PL and need English players telling them how important it is then you need to get your head checked.

You wanna know why we struggle to break down Sunderland but beat PSG? Why we end up demolishing Arsenal 6-0 and 7 days later lose 1-0 to Crystal Palace ? It has nothing to do with motivation.

It's quite simple really.It's all about tactics.

We're a team that's set up to counterattack. We thrive on sitting deep and letting the opposition come at us and when they do we pounce.

We press them when they're most vulnerable, grab the ball and exploit the spaces they left.

They open themselves up and we just try and profit from it. Problem is that smaller teams don't attack us, they wait, sit deep and if they attack they never do it with many players. So there aren't any spaces to exploit.

Our pressing game also doesn't work against smaller teams cause they're more then happy to just lump it forward.

Our inability to break down teams also comes from not having the proper personal to do it.

We lack a quality striker. Someone who can make proper runs, finish chances and also provide some more individual brilliance to the team.

We lack a Creative CM. Someone who can pull the strings, pass the ball quickly and accurately. Someone who can get the ball to our front four without them having to step out of the opponents final third.

We lack Fullbacks that can support our attack. Azpi can do it but he's playing on the wrong side and he's usually the most defensive fullback (probably to make sure Terry never gets isolated in a 1 on 1 with a pacy winger)

So please just stop with the ridiculous allegations and stop insulting our players.

NOW you are just being paranoid YNWA .. I think the W stands for W*nk

No not paranoid, realistic.

A few examples. Sturridge dived in full view and got Vidic sent off against united. Suarez inexplicably escaped 2nd yellow against City, again obvious to all but the officials. Sterling dived and got a penalty against Fulham. Skirtel has escaped punishment all season long for constant shirt pulling, elbowing, and pulling to the ground of opponents. Referees have blindspots now and then, granted, but are not permanently miopic.

Sorry, Mourinho is spot on with his comments
