One game every three days in the span of 34 days-That's Chelsea's schedule and why we should be happy so far ~ The Chelsea Pandemic

Did you know that if you stand on the ocean floor for quite some time, you can have your skull cracked open due to the pressure from the water around you?! That's how immense the pressure down there is and that's how intense the pressure is for the Chelsea players at the moment. And luckily, so far Chelsea have coped well to that pressure.

We have played 11 games in 34 days and have had better run of results than we did the whole time before this ’killer' schedule came alive. When was the last time we played so many games in such a short time? Do you know how many games are usually played in 34 days? A maximum of six maybe. Yes, just six or so. But these eleven games vs Birmingham City away, Stoke city home, Napoli home, Leicester City home, MCFC away, Spurs home, Benfica away, Aston Villa away, Benfica home, Wigan home, Fulham away have netted us 26 points from a possible 33 if you count the C.L and FA Cup wins as three points each. In other words, in the span of 34 days we have won 9, drawn 2 and lost just 1 to a Manchester City side who have the best home record this season.

It's not that bad if you give it a thought. In fact, its some brilliant run of form that was lacking before and has come at the most crucial time where we are still alive on three fronts. The boys have kept the momentum going and have played out beyond everyone's expectations even if we won some games the ugly way. Or even if we could have really won a game when needed the most. That's the game against Fulham. I am not going into that now, but rather paint you a picture on why we should be proud of the men in blue and I guess you get my point by now.

In other ways, this schedule is good for our chances of reaching the top four. That's where pressure comes in, and that's when Chelsea play their best -Under pressure. The game vs Benfica at home, would have reproduced that electrifying performance against Napoli had we been under pressure. But we weren't and you could see how the team took it lightly. The boys have a knack of delivering their best performances when truly under pressure and thats well good for the team during the season run in.

Lastly, I know the draw against Fulham really did hurt most of us, we were all gutted that we missed the bus perhaps? Well that chance was literally thrown at our front door and we didn't capitalize as usual. That's where some of the older Chelsea fans would come and say 'same old Chelsea.' Chance given and we choke. Typical. Well, you got to understand a draw at Fulham was not all that bad either. Yes, we should have won during such demanding circumstances, but Fulham deserved their point nevertheless. And also, if past records are to go by, we don't have a good record away to Fulham. So a point is good they say. Well at least they used to, I think? And keep in mind, Fulham like MCFC have had a good home record this season so far.

The reason I wrote this article was to cheer you all up as I witnessed some of the highest mood changes and some distraught and devastated fans on twitter absolutely fuming at the draw against Fulham. So, I hope the above stats and theories do the difference and cheer you all up and help you move on as Chelsea need us the most this coming Sunday and Tuesday. Keep your heads held high as we have nothing to lose now and let's go out there and win! And oh, make some noise!
