No fevriul, after the Sunderland match you have a torrid time with a lot of difficult matches i.e. Palace who are flying. On the old BBC606 I think or on ja606 in it's first year I predicted as DawnJayChickasaw a relegation battle for Chelsea soon. I expected it two years ago but JM came back and spoiled the prediction.
Bournemouth played us off the park, as did leicester, 90% of aimless possession doesnt change that fact. Leicester and bournemouth deserved to win those matches, as did liverpool, as did, southhampton, as did city, swansea, newcastle...etc. The fact is we have not played better than anyone in a LONG time in the premier league. We didnt make chances in this game not enough for a team of our stature anyway. When bayern munich play anyone, they dont sit there and complain about luck. When madrid draw against getafe, they dont take solace in the chances they created. When barac beat a team 1-0 they dont sit there and say "we played alright" they strive for excellence. We are in that category of clubs, dont let anyone tell you otherwise. THREE years aggo we won the CL, and FA cup in the same season, the saeson after that the EL, last season we won the league and league cup double. Make no mistake, this season is UNACCEPTABLE the performances have been too. We dont need luck, as I said, we need to be better than our opponents, something we havent been all season.
Yep, we also have an emerging talent named Watmore. He's going to rip that defence to shreds and M'Vila will walk all over their midfield at the moment. Like I say, it's a game we should be winning, but, I never ever, count my chickens.
I had visions of us going for him because he will be out of work and premiership experience etc.. They'd be a bloody coup at the Stadium Of Light if he was appointed as the next gaffer.
Chelsea relegation is currently available at 200/1 with SportingBet which seems a mental price. It's double figures with most. Or you can have 250/1 on them to win the league.
You can get 1000/1 on Palace. Edit- I see you use Skybet. Almost always awful odds but best price for the Chelsea title win.
