Chelsea Angle – What are We Really Celebrating?

Chelsea Jose MourinhoAfter a goalless draw with Arsenal on Monday, a lot of Chelsea fans were happy about playing well against Arsenal and also restricting them to just a shot on target, that came in the 88th minute of the match.
Most of them took to the social networks, especially Twitter and Facebook to show their delight.
Delight for what, just being in the title race and 2 points behind league leaders Liverpool because this same time last year we were out of the title race and trailed Man Utd by 9 points.
But what are we really celebrating?
I would like to point that this current Chelsea team is stagnating and not progressing in the title race because of the inconsistency of our league rivals.
Manchester United have been struggling and others have dropped points and that is how Chelsea have been fortunate enough to be in the title race.
During the post-match presser, Jose Mourinho was quick to take a gibe at Benitez, by boastfully saying we were already out of the title race,this time last season.
However, he failed to tell us that his current side are just 2 points better than that of last season,who had a game in hand against Southampton,after 17 league games.
Mourinho has not done any wonders as yet
