Have a good Christmas, pm your details.
Isolating the games where we did get some points, you could say we were lucky to gain quite a few of those.
Not sure what to make of it all. One obviously disappointing thing is not much in the way of change / experimenting within tactics and lineups this season. Some say tso ran them into the ground last year. Not sure that is valid. Granted, there wasn't a load of rotation but it's not like Chelsea were playing any more intensely than other sides and total games for the season was 54 - around average. Plus league won 3 weeks early.
There is a case that having gained a decent points advantage in February the tactics became more cautious. Performance levels did drop but not enough to have Chelsea not overall no1 in real life and on the numbers sheet. Of course those levels have dropped further and the cautiousness remains without any stability.
Anyway best stop guessing and enjoy the rest of season. Well not the football, it's horrible to watch atm and while tso can rely on fan support he has to remember they're watching some real hopeless crap so that might not last much longer. Not to mention that as each game passes the target of achieving another ~ 25 more points grows more uncertain. At least there's the champions league.
