2 points behind the dippers. I don't see them as pulling away. Lost of football to be played yet and Chelsea will not keep.up this run.

Keep the faith

Chelsea won't keep this up?
I said the same about Leicester last year.

What I can see happening is Chelsea not being let get too far ahead and being reigned in by the refs, to keep the league exciting and to keep Liverpool in it.

If that keeps us in it....great.
But I think we'll be struggling with refereeing decisions ourselves to keep ourselves in the top four.



+1 IWT2012
I am amazed they have let Chelsea get so far ahead - but it is partly due to the 6 pointer again'st us.
So now they have to start reeling Chelsea in - starting again'st Spurs?

Poor Bournemoth tonight: disallowed goal, penalty not given, player sent off and 6 minutes Fergie time
All very tough decisions for the officials of course - and all went Arsenals way - of course.

The PL are destroying themselves, fans outside of their favoured top 4 will look elsewhere.

That's the point I was making to WW.
I thought they would blow up. Everyone did.
I think that's the only difference this year.
Chelsea are a different kettle of fish.
I'm not sure they'll be allowed gallop away.

Last year, apart from the fairy tale story that ensued that had it's own appeal, I don't think anyone in the media or in the league really expected them to endure.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with WW. Indeed I see the logic of what he's saying. I'm just reminding people that we thought the same about Leicester.
