Its one thing getting pumped up for a home game to beat your rivals for the league, but what about those away games vs relegation scrappers? Totally different, nerves creep in, "we only need to win 3 more games" - well go on then, win them, not that easy mentally when you are hanging onto something rather than chasing it.
We have recent experience of doing this. They don't.
I love this, because two seasons ago it was ALL we heard. You have no experience. Let's look at reality, this is not an easy fixture for either side, as a couple of you have said it is a MUST WIN for them. Let's assume they do beat us, what are the odds of them bottling the next match after such an emotional high? I was suggest that they will struggle in their next two matches no matter the result. Either out of pity for losing tomorrow or fear of blowing the clear shot they would now have at the title. This game is not the end of our season title hopes if they lose, but it probably is the end of theirs as Chelsea will smell blood.
