A draw and a defeat really is all we need from others + we need to beat them and if we cannot do that then we do not deserve anyway.

Just compared Chelsea's record in the 27 games this season with last year's effort.
2015-2016 Points 36 Goals For 41 Goals Against 40
2016-2017 Points 66 Goals For 57 Goals Against 20
Certainly European involvement takes its toll, but Conte's performed admirably with much the same squad. Would he have had such an effect had we appointed him?

That was a very good squad Conte inherited, their previous manager fucked it up badly and got binned off. Pep on the other hand inherited an aging squad in need of rebuilding and re-motivating.

Chelsea's win last night seems to have given them more confidence about the title. Which is fine.
From our two titles we are at our best coming from behind. I still feel that we can catch Chelsea. Come on City

Chelsea are better this year for two reasons imho
Conte has changed things around and made them in to quite an efficient and ruthless team.
More importantly for me they signed Kante, he for me was the difference for Leicester and is doing the same for Chelsea.
As for the run in, if we're 5pts behind them after that run of three games, the manner of our win at their place will decide if they get nervous enough to bottle it in to the last 2 games. Conversely for us in that same situation I think we can go the rest of the season unbeaten depending on injuries/suspensions.
Still don't think we'll win it but who knows :)

Last season was rigged.
For Leicester and the now dead Thai king IMO.
So no need for comparisons

If only we won the Middlesborough and Everton games at home especially we would be 5 points behind. Southampton at home aswell but that was less dominant.
Won those, we could of been 2-5 points behind Chelsea with us still playing them, the arse both away. Sigh.

Sadly we have thrown some really silly points away this year with defensive howlers that have cost us dearly.
The Chelsea and Spurs games also. No doubt the referees decisions did not help but still we were leading 1-0 and 2-0 in those games with roughly a third of the game left. To concede five goals was a poor defensive effort.
