My feeling is Chelsea will probably win every game. If we lose on Saturday the team will be down and we might struggle to get motivated. I could see the Newcastle and Leicester games being very hard. I think we'll do it, just, but that little 5 point lead could evaporate like a snowflake on a summer's day if the team isn't properly up for it.

I see it completely the other way. I think if we win tomorrow, my nagging fear will be we have one eye on the final and put in some half arsed performances in the remaining games like we saw the other night.

I still can’t believe Burnley are where they are. I know Leicester winning the league was crazy, but they still had three excellent players in Kante, Vardy and Mahrez.

And just as I say that they score :).

Athletico smashed 3-0 by sociedad.

Could this season turn into the ultimate nightmare?

Liverpool win CL
Arsenal win Europa
Chelsea finish 4th & cup

Oh why were we so half arsed Tuesday.
I don't see us losing another league game but all it takes is a couple frustrating draws now

We must not underestimate any opponent we have left. But I’m still confident we’re going to finish in the top 4. We’re still 5 points above Chelsea and they still have to play Liverpool. But it won’t be easy, it’s squeaky bum time

Don't worry guys Chelsea definite won't beat Burnley and our run in is easy.

Or so I'm told. And we've never failed to beat wba, Newcastle or Leicester when push has come to shove . Ever.

So what we dropped a couple of points when Serge Aurier deserved a start after being a 'character' in the dressing room.

Going to be a fun run in!

Technically 6 with the superior goal difference. Basically us beating Chelsea has nullified the last 2 games where Chelsea have gained 5 on us. Remember if we didn't overturn being 1 down against Chelsea the gap then would have been 4 points. That was a massive result
