Chelsea being closer to 16th than 3rd is far from progression

We at the moment are simply two video games away from reaching the halfway level in our season, and searching on the Premier League desk proper now just isn’t a lot enjoyable.

Chelsea are at the moment nearer in factors to Leeds United in sixteenth spot than they’re to Aston Villa in third spot. That’s only a harsh actuality.

Leeds are on 20 factors, while Chelsea are on 29 factors. We’re at the moment solely above Manchester United in fifth spot on aim distinction. Aston Villa are 10 factors away from us in third, on 39 factors.

Tottenham, who’re in eleventh spot, are simply 4 factors behind Chelsea now. How on earth has that occurred?

The Premier League has at all times been shut this season, however the prime three are pulling away. It worryingly stays shut although, between fifth and thirteenth, with simply 5 factors between Brighton and Chelsea. My phrase.

We’re in a VERY sticky spot that would get loads stickier. After all, for our man Craige, we can be glass half full right here and say that we will additionally simply get ourselves out of this sticky spot by beating Bournemouth tomorrow evening at Stamford Bridge, after which getting one thing out of the Manchester Metropolis recreation.

Bournemouth’s kind has been poor of latec, they usually haven’t received of their final 9 matches, so they’re absolutely there for the taking. Chelsea will certainly fancy this and take all three factors in what will probably be a giant enhance that we want proper now. I do assume we’ll win this recreation (though I’m getting aggravated with being assured then having it thrown again in my face).

Manchester Metropolis’s latest kind has been significantly better, however in true inconsistent Chelsea type proper now, I at all times fancy us towards the larger groups as a result of we simply at all times get ourselves extra up for these video games, for no matter purpose. So I’d definitely not wager towards us getting one thing in that recreation.

It’s do-able to get outcomes from each these video games and no less than pressure ourselves out of this sticky state of affairs.

However on the similar time, it’s additionally do-able that I’m right here in per week’s time reporting which new managers we’re interviewing as a result of Enzo Maresca has simply been sacked after dropping 3 in a row (Villa, Bournemouth, & Metropolis). Let’s hope it’s glass half full this time although, eh Craige!?
