Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Mirror Why reborn Chelsea could be the ones to spoil Manchester United quintuple party While the footballing world's attention has been focused on Manchester United's dominance and Liverpool's Jekyll and Hyde act, Guus Hididnk has quietly been performing a minor miracle down on the King's Road. In roughly the same amount of time it takes Fernando Torres to warm up his hamstring, the Dutchman has transformed Chelsea from a fractured, fractious farce into a ruthlessly efficient winning team. Manchester United might be wobbling - no matter how slightly - but the Blues now appear to be rock solid. And the return of the fabulous Michael Essien from injury will only make them better. Manchester United might be on for the quintuple, but let's not forget Chelsea are still on for a treble of their own. And all of a sudden, it doesn't look beyond the realms of possibility that they might land at least one of them. I'm not getting carried away with anything just yet, but I'm delighted with the impact Hiddink has had since he arrived. The title is a very long shot.

Kez 2,727 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 If we win anything this season i'll be delighted because a few months ago it was looking like we'd be struggling for 4th spot. The title is United's to lose, but if they slip up we've got to be able to take advantage of that. Liverpool are breathing down out necks and are looking good. I'm just happy we're back to winning ways again, Gus has come in at the right time to save our season and we still have a great chance in the FA cup and maybe even the CL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Realistically I think the title is beyond us, so concentratiing on securing CL football for next season must be the first priority. If we're comfortable then the CL should be the main focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
