We can still win the league

All the top 6 teams have looked good on their day. Chelsea are the only team to do it consistently though. Too much of a cushion for Chelsea. We also have some horrendous fixtures coming up.

As do Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal...
I watched Chelsea drop points yesterday with a growing belief that, yes, we can go on a glorious run and catch them to win the league.
Like Machavelli - the poster and not the historical barm pot- i too am getting on the booze early in preparation for a life affirming ride.
 
The only way we're going to win the league is if all the refs,. between now and the end of the season, start giving us the right decisions when they should and stop chicken out, e.g. penalty against spurs, and a sending off of Danny Rose, + numerous other decisions which went against us all through this season. If we had had the decisions that went for the rags e.g. at least 4 goals if not more were scored from offside positions, in which they went on to win the game, we would now be probably 5/6 points in front of Chelsea.
 
Its by no means a given that we will win tonight, but lets assume we do and are 8 points behind Chelsea. Factor in the fact we have to play them and by winning that game that would leave 5 more points to make up on them. They have a few tricky fixtures so in theory its quite possible we could still win it.

In reality they have only the league and FA Cup to focus on we have the CL too. Given that and their consistency I cannot see us or anybody else catching them. That said I would not be surprised if we went on a good run and made it interesting
 
We win tonight and the gap's 8pts... we've closed that gap before!
Not saying we will do this time, but of course it's possible... Chelsea have the advantage of not being in many competitions and have been lucky with injuries – we need Hazard to get crocked for a few weeks to give us a chance.
 
The home game against Chelsea could be the significant game that cost us the title. Hope not
 
If we are within 6 points with 6 to go, I fancy us. Our list 6 fixtures look like we picked them ourselves

Wouldn't be the first time thoroughbred champions have bottled it to those plucky blue nosed upstarts. I'm off to watch Rocky II now ;)
