In 2008-2009, we saw Liverpool making a great start to the season, only to witness a horrid run of draws close to the middle of the season, that completely messed up their chances of winning a league title.
It looks like the same thing is happening now with Chelsea.
I understand that they would be upset for very possibly being robbed in that match against Manchester united, but that was five matches ago.
And, since that lousy derby, Chelsea got a grand total of four points out of possible fifteen. (No wonder people are saying it might just be a two-horse race now, between City and United.)
If I was Abramovich, I would be firing left and right. Not just Di Matteo. This is just crass incompetence, what's happening at Chelsea right now.
You will never see teams like Man. U., Barcelona, Real, Bayern, Juventus, Porto and many other established teams across the continent fuck up so badly, in such a short time, during a season when they really have an opening to win the league (like Chelsea had this year - They should have been seven points ahead, for heaven's sake! -).
It cannot realistically be just the coach.
Chelsea - Fulham 0-0?!?
That's the kind of results you would expect teams like Arsenal (AKA teams that have already accepted the fact that they cannot possibly win the league anymore because of the lack of value of their squad) to let slide.
So, I guess the question is now: Will Chelsea become like a new Arsenal?
(And, maybe, is Manchester City the new Chelsea?)
