Chelsea - Returning to what they know best, Win games!!!

Chelsea, who have been playing some fantastic football in the last 3 years, are not leading the league at this time of the year. It has been a turbulent season for the former league champs who started off indifferently under their former manager Jose Mourinho losing a couple of matches and drawing matches that they should have won. This lead to the sacking of the self professed 'special one' and appointment of Grant. Such a shocking move it was! Every Chelsea fan was was angered at this move and didnt bother to hide their emotions in the games that followed. However, Grant (& to a large extent Abromovich) proved everbody wrong with the strategies and results. Chelsea are 15 games undefeated in all competitions. To add on to this, they are 71 games undefeated at Stamford bridge (something that started in Feb 2004 under Ranieri). Chelsea is now back in the race for this year league title (just 3 points away from the leaders!!!) and I wouldnt be surprised if they went on to win the Premeir League and the Champions League!!!

More about Grant in my next blog... Look forward to it...
