Before that Villa game I stupidly thought we were going to win it but we've played well all season and just when we need to win, we are throwing it away

chelsea you are breaking my heart

Seriously?

Except the 'big games' where we were fantastic, we literally did the minimum in almost all the other games. Our football this season was not good enough to be champions.

I was talking from the point where we were 9 points ahead of city. From that point onwards, we were the favourites. It was oura to lose cos city were going to drop points. If we had won all our remaining matxhes, we defo would have won the league. The villa game and the palace were not the games where we should have dropped points specially knowong the stakes.

that is extremely unlikely. Chelsea were always going to drop points. and it was not actually a 9 point lead. City had games in hand

when was the last time chelsea played a good game away from home anyway? Not great at West Brom, Fulham either.

City had to go on and draw to give me a little bit of hope now, bastards.

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

Chelsea, liverpool, and Man city with 6,7, and 8 games left respectively, there will be some more twists yet in the title race. Unfortunately today cant see the yids getting anything though.

Its just the way people say "if pool wim there remaining 7 matches, they will win the league". Or "if city win their remaining 8 matches, they will win the league".

Even before the villa game, when we were 9 points ahead and city had 12 (I think) games left to play, people said "if city win all their remaining games, they will win the league".

The simple fact is, before the villa game, we were the favourites to win the league. We had the "easiest" of run-ins. We had the points in the bag rather than games in hand. These 2 losses have pegged us back.

All we can do now is win ALL our remaining 6 and PRAY.

never the favorites. even with an easy run in, it's not like chelsea were putting away the lower sides.

14 games, 12 wins and 2 draws. I think that was pur streak before villa. We were winning ganes.

To win the league:

* We need to win every game.

* Need City to lose 5 points till the end.

* Liverpool can win every game, but to lose against us.

That CIty-Arsenal draw left some chance... i thought City will take that big chance today and they didnt, not quite sure about them now.

Before Vila game everyone were saying we just need to win all our games, then we lost. We beat Arsenal and everyone were still very optimistic (because we had easiest fixture of all), then we lost against Palace yesterday, and people are still talking we need to win every game... Well, we are not winning every game and we probably won't win every game until the end!!!

We'll prob fuck it up last game or something

Mega tough run.city drawing sorta helps but if Liverpool win aahhh

[CHOULO19 24,332]

I wasn't upset after our game. The thing that made that loss so frustrating was City drawing. Don't even want to think about Liverpool winning it!

It was 11 wins and 3 draws actually. Either way, think people were a tad too optimistic if they thought we were going to unbeaten for the rest of the season or win all our league games. True, we were winning games but we were also dropping some points along the way and it was going to be that way till May. We will win games but also drop a few here and there, one way or another. If anything, what we needed was to drop fewer points than Liverpool and Man City but unfortunately, seems like we have dropped a little bit too much.

It shouldn't be all doom and gloom. Did anyone expect us to win the title this season? Well, let me rephrase that - with this squad and any other manager, we wouldn't stand a chance. The only reason people suspected we were in with a shout this time round is because of Mourinho. We're a good couple of players away from being genuine title contenders. But that bodes well - we'll end up missing out by 4-6 points maximum this season. That's without a proper right-back, any truly decent midfielders (Matic aside - Lampard is too old to play consistently well, Ramires is too inconsistent, Luiz excels in some games and is poor in others, Essien was simply terrible!) and without any strikers at all (Torres and Ba are dire; Eto'o hasn't quite been a revelation but still acceptable, but nowhere near Suarez, Sturridge, Negredo, Aguero, etc.). For me that bodes well for the next couple of seasons.

Get Azpi over on the right, bring in a replacement for Cole and we genuinely have the best defence in English (and European?) football. Potentially another midfielder to sit alongside Matic (someone in the Witsel mould as a box to box marauder). bring back Lukaku and sign Costa. Then, not only will we be the best side in England, we'll be as good as anyone (bar Bayern and Real Madrid) in European football, in my honest opinion. AND we have Mourinho.
