Those 2 early defeats….

Let’s not harp on about it. I don’t think we are truly title contenders regardless as of now. Arsenal for example are playing at a higher level than us. Let’s just focus on trying to win any trophy we are in contention and being ready to go closer next season
 
Wonder what happened to these "dressing room sources" over the last few months? Haven't been seeing any. Have they been transferred to Chelsea?
My guess ones currently in Saudi and the other on the bench. Their followers amongst the players have adapted to the new leaders.
 
Don't think it's too mental to say we have only had 4 bad weeks this season, will ignore City defeat because can crush anyone on their day plus Casa not being fully adapted to this league.

Those weeks are obviously the first two (we were literally rock bottom of league after Brentford) Villa away (damn new manager bounce) and of course Palace & Arsenal away where we would only be 9 back on Sunday if we had taken 4 points there.

Hell even only 11 if we just held on for the draw at The Emirates due to points swing involved with facing them.

We could have maybe got away with those points IF Arsenal's rut had continued with Villa but sadly for us they had huge stroke of luck and allowed them to get back on track.
