Chelsea Need To Cut Down On Their Theatrics – 3 Talking Poings From Chelsea 2-0 West Ham

3. Can anybody catch Chelsea?

Thanks to their participation in the Champions League and the League Cup, the Blues have so far played 27 games this season. The number of games, they have lost, just ONE.  When they failed to muster a win from their two trips to the North East, many said that was a sign that they are not unbeatable. While that is true, the longer they continue, the more it seems as though, that is merely a blip.

Although Manchester City are just  three points behind and Chelsea have two tricky away games against Southampton and Tottenham in the next few days, such is their strength in depth that is unlikely to see beyond them for both games. The last three times Chelsea were top at Christmas, they won the title. Barring the odd blip or two, it looks as though this time has the wherewithal to make it four out of four and make it eight League titles for Mourinho in the last 13 seasons.
