Don't underestimate the Arteta's ability to choke under pressure.

It's well known. Everyone 1st in October always end up champion 100% of the time. So the top leagues are currently studying a way to make shorter leagues. And have 3 different leagues every year instead. That way we don't waste time because the champion is already decided on October.

They were 11points clear a few years ago. Bottled it. If they can hold their nerve who knows. Football is a quicktirnaround game, anything can happen.

Not sure Chelsea belong in a list of title contenders... United and Tottenham have more chance of a title push than Chelsea this season...

@NextChapterRapper

Funny how one team seems to missing from that list. A team that is 2 points AHEAD of Chelsea and happens to also be the biggest club in the world. Athletic reeeally working on that anti-United angle. It must be written in British law somewhere… 😂
