I think 6, even 9 points, at this stage of the season is utterly irrelevant. If anything I think we showed last season that coming from behind suits us because it keeps others in the headlines whilst we quietly go about our business.
Having said that i obviously think we'll beat Arsenal.
My thoughts exactly...A fellow blue in my office goes as far as to say if we lose to Arsenal and Chelsea next week we have lost the league already
Preposterous notion
It's just the natural reaction of a pessimistic supporter. Okay I can be overly optimistic at times, but with over 30 games still to be played, 9 points is fuck all in my opinion. Chelsea will lose games, anyone who thinks they won't is kidding themselves. Yes they're stronger than last season, but football rarely as simple as that. Otherwise we'd all pack up and go home. A 9 point swing in this league just isn't very much, at the top or the bottom.
