    Is the Premiership race over?

    With Chelsea being 10 ponts clear of Arsenal and 11 of Man Utd, and in seemingly unstoppable form, does anyone reckon they can be caught and overhauled?

    They are not condecing any goals, only 8 all season, and scoring freely. Personally I cannot see them slipping up and lose 4 times, nor can I see Arsenal/Man Utd win 13 of their remaining 15 games.

    What do people reckon?

    Looks like Chelsea have it in the bag alright.

    Unstoppable at the moment and could beat liverpools record of only conceding 16 goals in a league season.

    I'd be surprised if the bookies haven't stopped taking money on Chelsea yet.

    Of course Sky will hype the non-battle between 2nd & 3rd place for all its worth which isn't much. Wonder if thats why so much hype about the Ferguson-Wenger spat?

    I think that Chelsea won it around the time they signed Mornihno (Sp). It'll be interesting to see how long he'll stay with them though, I can see him winning everything with them and then going to Milan/Barca/Munich and doing it all over again.
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

    It's the premiership they're on about Dillo, not the fair play league. What you mean is

    1. Chelsea
    2. ManUre
    3. Arse
    4. Liverpool

    Myabe but at least the SPL will be a far more exciting race for first place this year than the Premiership

    Great response from Mouri though when Keane said it was in Chelsea's grasp last week when he said 'It's practically over alright and we don't even bother looking out for Man us and Arsenal's results anymore.

    All over - Chelsea's I reckon. If they were playing either United or Arsenal earlier in the run in, then maybe, but United is their 6th last game, Arse their 5th last. Don't think that gives enough time for them to bottle it even if both beat them.
    If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.

    yep, think it's Chelsea this year - at last they'll have some history at last !

    Think Man Utd and Arsenal will keep going for it but a draw next Tuesday between the Gooners and Man Utd will almost certainly end it as a spectacle. Need one or the other to win it. If Arsenal where to win for example the gap would go to 7 with Chelsea not playing till the following night - if it ends up back around the 6 or 7 points then it's all to play for and you could get Man Utd or Arsenal helping the other catch Chelsea in April - unlikely but very possible. There's been some great comebacks in the past and 98 sticks out for me being 10 points behind Utd after Christmas and having to go to OT so you just never know!

    I'm surprised nobody has, as yet, voted for Arsenal. While I don't think anyone will stop Chelsea, I'd fancy Arsenal to do it over Man Utd anytime.

    Man Utd are past it IMO and living on past glories...looking forward to Milan teaching them a footballing lesson soon.

    You can still get 1/9 on Chelsea. Which with the way it is looking at the min it aint looking too bad a bet.

    Only Chelsea are above them in the form stakes at the moment. never ever write off Man U. I fancy them to progress past Milan if they continue to play as well as they are, and to finish 2nd in the Premiership.

    Yeah there have been some great comebacks over the years

    Arsenal from ten points behind to win it against Man UTd.

    Man Utd were 8 points behind Aresenal with 3 months to go in 2002-2003

    Liverpool won it a few times coming from a long way back not sure of the details though

    Man Utd were 12 points behind Newcastle at one point .


    I am sure tehre are a few more

    what are you on about. barca haven't had their bad spell yet, and its coming. villarreal tore them apart, and it won't be the last time. Real on the other hand are just gettin started. TBH, I'd rather Real finished 10th if it meant denying those horrible ****s the league, but I'd be equally happy to see the title in the Bernabeu
