Win this and it is done

Most likely. It would take a monumental cock up thereafter to lose out.

Or a superhuman effort from the biggest bottlers in the league

If we lost every game from now till end of season - not a single point
They would need to win at at the very least 5 and draw one with over turning a 5 goal GD to get to our current 66 points

Thats beating in order 5 of Arsenal, Chelsea, P.Lop, Burnley and Man city rounding off with a Sheff utd

Completely in our hands - beat Chelsea and we have 69 points and they cannot catch us with 3 games to spare

Erm this is wrong surely.......

Yes, if they win 5 they'll be on 75 points.

They've got 60 points with 6 games left, but 4 are against Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea. If we get to 69 points with a win against Chelsea, i think they'll be hard pushed to get  3 wins and a draw from their last 6 and that's assuming we don't get any more points. So i would say we'd be all but there, lose our last 3 and it might become a question though (hence the monumental fuck up comment) !

I say we just win every game, much simpler.

I know we flopped against them in the cup but our away game against them earlier in the season was tough too. Arguably their red card is what allowed us to win it eventually.

Yep we have been 2nd best in both games. Only game i would say we matched them was 1st cup game. Definitely be great of we tyrn up foe this one as i think we can blow them away if we play as we know we can

Yep that’ll do the job and in both our home games we owe Chelsea and Liverpool for the spanking they gave us.

Look back at comments made by Chelsea’s bell end manager about where the stats suggest they should be in the table.
