outsiders?
These are the two outcomes I envisage depending on the result of the game against City today. We have to win today to be considered an outsider title challenger, but if we don't win, even though the table may mathematically indicate us being in a fight for top 4 place, I see us nailed on for a comfortable 3rd place.
The only way that City can be caught is if both ourselves and Liverpool beat City and even then it will be a massive push.
Missing our wing backs agst City today makes us the underdogs, but hopefully Tuchel will find a way.

Your last paragraph sums up the size of the job for me Biggish.
Most Chelsea outsiders don't realise how integral the wing backs are in our play and and with the playing staff remaining, are impossible to replace like for like!

Yes Brummie. It is really frustrating because although we have a fantastic midfield when everyone is available, Reece James and Chillwell are our USP, especially the way that Tuchel was giving them free reign to come into central positions.
They were destroying teams until their injuries.

Decent chance you could win today but it’s still an impossible ask even if you do it in my opinion. Don’t see us winning at their place in addition to that.

Even if you win (I hope) we have to win our game in hand and then win at the etihad to even have a chance.
Too many ifs and hopes unfortunately
