    Spurs losing last night almost seals it if Chelsea win tonight. Realistically Spurs were the only chance of running Chelsea down. The rest of us had lost too many games each to win the title but Spurs had only lost 2 before last night and they were only 4 behind them on goal difference. The rest of us were playing for spots in Europe.

    If Chelsea win tonight and bang 4 or 5 in the back of the net at the same time then we may well be presenting the trophy at a game in March.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Anything can happen, with injuries a possible factor. It's yours to lose because of the buffer.

          The TAB may pay out after tonight.

            Injuries and Chelsea just don't go together.

            But Kante and Luiz going down might make it interesting.

            When Liverpool and Chelsea drew everyone else blew it. That was it for me.

              Theres no doubt we are in the driving seat and the envy of the league, but theres still far too many games to go and theres still plenty that can go wrong.

              The gap could only be 7 points by tuesday morning.

                No European football has been a blessing. Can focus on 1 game a week and the players get to recover properly.

                  You may have noticed me banging on about that once or twice in the past.

                          So true. Better than hearing SAF blame everyone but himself back in the day. Or Arsene blame the refs.

                              I don't take anything these managers say seriously . Wenger and Fergie always deflect from a poor performance by blaming the refs, as does Mourinho. In fact they all do it
