That's two great chances Burnley have missed now. How many do they think they will get v Chelsea?

Big fifteen mins in our season. What slim chances of the title we have, depend on Chelsea dropping points in these sort of games. Nurdle a few points back, then beat them at their's and we can get close.
Everytime I watch them they look so average. Including when we somehow failed to beat them.

Anthony Taylor beat us. Chelsea didn't. Still fuming from that.

Absolutely spot on. Luiz walks and we win that game all day long. Cheating cunt.

Good result just in though. We can absolutely win at Chelski, so whilst it's still a long shot, we are potentially looking at clawing back five points over 12 games. It's happened before time after time.

So we win tomorrow and it's 8 points with 13 games to go.

Why were we being peddled with the bullshit that the league is over when we were halfway through the fucking season, from every media outlet?

We have a third of the season left ffs.

Funny how it's all about how Liverpool were Chelsea's biggest threat and then spurs.

And no mention at all that we overcame an 8 point gap to win the league with six games to go, nevermind fucking 13.

Summy cunts the lot of them.

I still believe anyway. To be honest I never stopped believing we could win it.

Only for anthony taylor, we'd be one point behind them if we won tomorrow night.

Have a good think about that. Fabulous chelsea and city in crisis. One point.

You're not wrong. We all bitch about certain decisions costing points, but that refereeing performance was quite remarkable and was the main reason why Chelsea weren't smashed by four or five. We should be playing to go two points behind Chelsea tomorrow, not eight.

you could also say that De Bruyne lost it by missing that sitter. if he scores thats probably match over.

If we win every game from today we just need Chelski to drop 5 points.

I believe. CTID.

Just the result I was hoping for - but not expecting.

People were saying Chelsea would be unlikely to lose x number of games, yes, but the points lost from draws can be just as much a drag.

Anyway, win tomorrow and beat Chelsea at the Bridge, as we must if we hope to win the Prem, and, as others have said, we'll be in a great position to chase them down over the other remaining 12 games.

Apart from the first few games of this season, when Conte was still settling in and deciding upon his best formation, Chelsea have not really had a bad run and loss of form so far.

I want to see them when the wheels start to fall off - and, before the end of this campaign, they will at some point - and how they then cope with that and the pressure it will bring, especially if it's during the 'run-in' phase.

A number of our players have been through the scenario of overhauling a sizeable points deficit before and, if we can still keep stringing results together, the collective experience of Vinnie, Zabba, Yaya and Sergio will come to the fore and be priceless in the final stages.

Three more points on Monday night will do very nicely, thank you very much and then it's "game on".

Edit Just seen JL's post above, which says the same sort of thing.

It was a terrible miss and it was the moment you felt the game was right there for winning. But anyone watching that refereeing display couldn't fail to see it for what it was. Worst I've ever seen, truly disgusting.

Players miss chances in games. That is part of the beautiful game.

Biased officiating is not part of the beautiful game, so don't try to compare it with kdb's missed chance.

I really hope so. I always love to see the underdog come through, but I hated their kick&rush style mixed with extreme brutality. Awful team.
