    Won 5 and drawn 2 of those

    Is it correct that the only goals we let in at home in the last 5 league games have been by pens?

    I think our defense is better than people give us credit for. Tottenham get lots of praise for their CB pairing.

    Swansea was the last time we conceded from open play in the league this season.

    Kos really doesn't get enough praise definitely. Thought he was superb yesterday

    Unbeaten when we concede a penalty? So all we have to do if we are losing is ....

    play Mustafi and give away a Pen every game and we'll win the league.

    For some reason I felt a twinge of optimism yesterday afternoon. Perhaps we really are good enough to challenge this season!

    Then I realised that, to have any hope of doing so, we have to win at Stamford Bridge.

    I know - rather annoying isn't it. Just have to settle for the Champions League win instead

    Strange things can happen Sir C. We won there once and Andre Santos was playing, he even scored. ( how quickly I forgot that he actually existed)

    keeping up our tradition of full backs scoring surprise goals at Stamford Bridge.
    I say tradition I can think of 3.

    Winterburn, Silvinho, Santos? Oddly not Cole. Dixon got an absolute belter there as well but may have been before your time

    Sadly not on here but he got a decent one against them at home as well
