I cannot believe we are a win away from being top considering how lucky the dippers have been this season. That Sissoko chance. He could have passed it into the net... blazes it over. That would have been a huge loss that would shift the title balance over to us quite significantly. Instead 5 mins later Lloris decides to copy Pickford and Speroni and cock up a straight forward bit of goalkeeping.
Positively we aren't having to keep grinding out wins. They are squeaking and it is way too early to be feeling pressure. Beat Cardiff and go top again, then enjoy our Cup and CL games before thinking about the league again. We might still be top with a game in hand when we go to Palace. Or we might be 2pts behind again. Either way, beat Cardiff and Palace and it gives the dippers another tough and high pressure game at home to Chelsea. And how the memories will come back for them at that one!
