Top of the league with a very good win. Three goals and a clean sheet does us nicely. Eden Hazard was absolutely sublime and I think that's his first hattrick for us. Great to be top. Let's hope we can stay there for the rest of the season. Taking a look at the list of difficult games for us and our rivals: Chelsea vs Everton Chelsea vs 5pu1s Chelsea vs Arsenal Liverpool vs Chelsea Arsenal vs Manchester United 5pu1s vs Arsenal Chelsea vs Arsenal Arsenal vs Manchester City Everton vs Arsenal Manchester United vs Manchester City Arsenal vs Manchester City Liverpool vs Manchester City Everton vs Manchester City I say we definitely have the easier of the difficult fixtures, followed by Arsenal and then Manchester City. Them both still being in the Champions League and the FA Cup along with us will help as they will have to divide their time and effort in all competitions. Plus they've got Bayern Munich and Barcelona which will take a lot out of them. I hope they remain in all competitions so that they're not just focused on the PL (bar Man City in the FA Cup obviously).
Good thing about our games are how many of the "difficult" fixtures are at home. However as we've seen so far playing the sides higher up the league we seem to be fine, it's dropping points against the likes of West Brom and West Ham which seems to be our downfall! Hopefully that will stop now the defence has been tightened though.
Brilliant result and performance. Need to beat WBA on Tuesday. We look to have turned our season around this week.
Newkie showed some good football today, which made the victory sweeter, yet the three real chances they had I couldn't help noticed it was down to Loopy Lu in defense, playing they onside, not close enough to his mark and generally looking way to far forwards.
