Everyone keeps talking about Chelsea's fantastic squad, strength in depth etc etc. The truth has reared its ugly head, a couple of injuries and they are conceding goals at the same rate as Watford. More importantly, they are relying on Drogba to win games for them, their attacking options are very thin indeed. Ironically Mourinho after the game at OT remarked that Chelsea have better attacking options than Man Utd who he felt were very strong defensively! Well all thats changed now, next week Monday Man Utd will have Alan Smith & Rossi back and Larsson fired and ready to go. Thats 6 strikers. With Park getting back to his best and setting up 1 goal and linking up for another at the weekend, with Richardson/ Fletcher/ Oshea primed and ready to impress, with Dong Zhou available from next week, with a couple of midfield signings imminent in the next 2 weeks, HOW CAN CHELSEA POSSIBLY NOT DROP MORE POINTS IN THE REMAINING 18 GAMES? HOW CAN CHELSEA CATCH MAN UTD? WILL THEY WIN AT EMIRATES, ANFIELD, ST JAMES PARK, FRATTON PARK? Discuss...

Chelsea have had a small squad for 3 years now but people like you were on here about how we were buying any player and every player and now you're on here having a go that we don't have enough players. At least be consistent eh!
Yes you had a squad of 22 but I never thought the squad was good enough. I thought they were very lucky to come away with the title two years running, no injuries, favourable decisions time and time again! Not this season old chap! It will be too late by the time the cavalry comes galloping in! The gap is only going to get bigger! Your squad is absolutely down to the bares bones! OBI, GEREMI, KALOU??? Oh boy!
I think you have not looked at the Fixtures before posting. United still have to go to Newcastle Arsenal Tottenham Liverpool Portsmouth Chelsea Everton Man City Every bit as hard as Chelsea, if not harder. Or as you guys are now sure you have won the league , do you think you will win all these games?
"Favourable decisions"? Coming from a Man Utd fan? Does it really matter that we are conceding loads, we are stil collecting points and in my opinion that is the sign of a good team.
