Even though Mourinho insisted he was happy with the way his team performed against Southampton, he still pointed out that losing two points at home bring Arsenal back in the race for the title. The Portuguese boss praise his players and focused mostly on what is to come during the post-match statements. According to NBC Sports, the Gunners are seen as the bigger threat out of the title candidates despite being third in the standings. To be fair, Wenger’s side showcased some really impressive football against West Ham and also have one match less than Chelsea.

It seems that not qualifying in the next Stages of the Champions League affected Chelsea’s players who, although looking determined, managed to miss from every position. The defense was all over the place at times and the midfield lacked determination. Matic and Fabregas were not that present in the game except for the time when the Serbian fouled Mane inside the box. Even if Chelsea ended the match with a crushing win in terms of statistics, the truth on the pitch was worryingly just a 1-1 draw. Luckily, City suffered one of the biggest setbacks of the season by losing big points against Burnley on Saturday. If not for their mishap, the Citizens would have been only a match away from catching up to the Londoners who still have to face Arsenal, Liverpool and United.
