The same few people who saw Southampton taking points off Chelsea tonight no doubt thought we would sail into the final.
There is a stark reality about an objective viewpoint on football in that you see it for what it is.
Chelsea have the stand out player in the Premier League despite Alli and Kane and I do not mean Kante, as unvelievable he has been again this season. No, I mean Hazard and it will be him, like Mahrez last season with able support who will likely crush our hopes, as he did on Saturday and last season at the Bridge.
But win tomorrow and we just about cling to our outside chance this season.
The players who it to themselves to show all and sundry that they have been part of the best set of players in the last 2 seasons.
