Last I checked we were still only 5 pts adrift. If you are looking for a chance to be miserable, at least wait until we lose Thursday night! Then it really will be over.

Doesn't really change anything for us. We need 6 pts from the next two games regardless.

The players can clearly still perform but for some reason decided to only start trying now it's too late.

Pellegrino staying for so long has to be the worst.

I suspect it'll be over by the time we get to that game. We'd have to have a run of championship winning form to stay up now and even then hope Swansea pick up no more points.

Even winning that leaves us 2 pts from safety!

Other results now putting it in context. 5 points adrift. 2 wins needed just to stay afloat assuming the teams above don't pick up any points..

Even if we win a few games we are relying on other teams to go on a poor run and drop points. We threw away our best chances to get clear against Newcastle and West Ham..

A long 45 mins left. Brighton are up for the fight so hopefully can get one more.

15 points left to play for. One of those is against Man City so perhaps 12 left. All depends on other results and whether we can keep playing the form of the first 70 and scrape some wins. Starting Thursday. Let's all hope results today are favourable...

Could be playing for survival by the time we get to the next home game. Palace, Swansea and Huddersfield all at home today. Wins for them puts is 6 pts from safety..

Could be 6 pts adrift after today. That's 3 wins required just to get back to a safe position and hoping all the other teams lose. As some say.. if that happens you'd have concede its over.

Going too far adrift after today for it to make any difference unfortunately..

Question of how many now. We really can't complain.. Once again the lack of defensive recruitment comes back to haunt us.

Utterly embarrassing

Difference in quality showing now. We had done well.. but let it all go in just a few mins. Miracle required to get a point now.

Ah well. Likely another defeat now.

They have the quality to turn this on its head. Up to us to try and sneak another..

Chelsea are always going to have their moments. We need to just keep going and trying to get another.

I'm starting to feel the ref is being over generous to them.

Best half we've played for ages. Real fight and effort shown

can't see anything but a heavy defeat today. hopefully we'll show more fight though.

Gonna get smashed..

Bit better defending e.g investment in a proper CB and we'd have won. Board to blame for not replacing a world class defender.. not even trying to replace him.

We didn't deserve this but when make a game like Arsenal a must win... Too little too late
