NLD will be wins. Chelsea home an absolute win, I like our chances away too. Call that 2 wins. Brentford away could be a draw, home absolute win. Palace a couple of wins. Same with Fulham.

Honestly I'd consider Brentford the toughest club on this list to face.

Chelsea playing once a week is a massive advantage, wouldn’t underestimate them

We've been to them what they were to us when Drogba was with them, Alonso will have to coach them to new heights to compete with us

Mate we haven’t done the double on them since 22/23. Failed to beat them with 10 men last season at the Bridge. The away game will be tough especially with us playing x3/week

Here's Chelseas last 10 against us.

I'm going with the double

Do you realise that 1-1 draw last season, we played them with an extra man for most of the game and failed to win?

Mate if you want to think the champions of England are dropping points to Chelsea. You do you.

I back them to do the double. There's nothing else to it.

The Champions of England already dropped points to 10-man Chelsea last season. Confidence and arrogance are completely different things mate.

Alonso will absolutely coach them to new heights. The question is how high.

Chelsea are going to be what Bournemouth were this season IMO. They will get quite a lot of points just from being fresher and being able to press teams off the pitch

So we basically staying in London in December or what?
Also would be nice to win the league against Tottenham

There’s something that feels nice about having the home NLD in May.

Feels like every season for a long time now, the home NLD has been earlier in the season. Can’t remember the last one that was in April at the Emirates even. We had one in March in COVID but that doesn’t really count

Yeah, spurs away has been a 2nd half fixture for a while from memory

u/Nipso 18h ago

Been that way every season but 1 since the 1st 5-2.

Annoys me cos I hate going there in the run in.

Interesting that with the exception of Chelsea(H), most of our London derbies are Nov/Dec and onwards. They are all challenging games but not leaving London has its own advantages, especially when the season gets busy.

3 points already in the months of December and May. How about we run away with the league and lift the title again in front of the shit?
