If I remember rightly Tottenham will be playing West Ham and Leicester will be playing Villa. So if we managed a win against the Bitters, they can't all keep pace (Tottenham/West Ham/Villa) or pull further ahead (Leicester) so our standing would improve in relative terms.

    For the remainder of the season we'll be crossing fingers on one hand for recovery of our own form, whilst crossing fingers on the other hand that opposition results go our way on the relevant weekends. Margins will be find - 6 points above us, 2nd spot. Just 6 points behind us, 10th

    We need results.
    Results have mostly gone are way last few weeks or so

    otherwise no way would we still be 4th

    Chelsea looking semi decent so far, Tuchel made the changes I would have made if i'm honest, bringing Azpilacueta back at RB and and Alonso at LB, that extra aeriel ability and experience of those 2 makes a big difference, you can never have too many very good headers of the ball at set pieces at either end

    Well he did, why would you not use those 2 players, despite Matip being a miles better CB than Gomez ever will be, it's well known here that one of my main other reasons for wanting him in instead of Gomez whenever fit was for us to have different options and greater variation at attacking set pieces and far more aerial dominance at defending set pieces, so it should be entirely obvious given my thinking on such things I would have done that

    1-0 Chelsea - Giroud poor defending from Newcastle, a defender should have got in a position to block that low cross getting past the far post as Fabinho would have been

    2-0 Chelsea Werner, looked like it came of Giroud's arm at first, but replay shows he just moved it out of the way in time

    I can't fucking stand Carra on Sky anymore, I wish they'd find some reason to sack him to be honest

    Maybe gobbing at someone would carry a heavier penalty these days.
