We can still win the league

Left ourselves too much to do for this season. Chelsea will drop points but so will we. The worrying thing is they will spend a shit load in the summer as they have the Oscar & Costa money. I'm sure they'll be in the market for defenders as will we. May be hard to convince a player to join us over the league champions.

Fantastic performance against Spurs showed what we are really capable of. If we can repeat this type of performances over and over again we can still snatch the title. Kompany is back, Dinho will be back against WHU. Chelsea's upcoming three games are Liverpool away, Arsenal at home and Burnley away. They can easily loose to both Liverpool and Arsenal and away at Burnley it is always tough. I can see them getting only 1 point out of 9 possible. Our next 3 games are WHU away, Swansea at home and Bournemouth away. All these games are winnable. If everything works out as planned, we will be on 52 points and Chelsea on 56 points and we will still have to play them. We all know Arsenal and Spurs will bottle it. Never mind Liverpool.

If I had a penny for every time I heard "Kompany is back".....

Even if we get maximum 16 wins from 16 wins Chelsea can afford 4 losses from 16 games. Not going to happen this season mate. Lets just enjoy the football and our side getting better and a run in the cups - we don't have to win the league every year. Quite happy with 3 every decade - we can do that!

Based on the sides around us, twice in a decade would be reasonable.

I was resigned to this once we drew the 3 home games. You just can't do that and win titles. That combined with our poor record against the top sides and it's over for this season.

Even against Spurs and Chelsea when we played really well we didn't win.

With our defence it will be more of the same. Some great performances where we don't take all 3 points together with some iffy ones.

I think 11 wins out of 16 would be a reasonable return from here and should secure top 3 which has to be the goal.

A good cup run would be nice.

As for Chelsea dropping 8 points in 3 games. I can't see that. Chelsea will have won the league by end April this season for me. They are excellent at keeping clean sheets.
 
I can see us securing top 4 fairly comfortably if we can maintain this standard (which is a big 'if' - we've been incredibly inconsistent this season) but it's hard to see Chelsea throwing it away now.
