That�s the thing with Chelsea. They can do it on a mild Monday night in Stoke. Unseasonably warm. That is the bad news for those betting on a white Christmas this year.
The good news for Jose Mourinho and Chelsea is that they will wake up on December 25 three points clear at the top of the Premier League table and playing like champions.
For Mourinho, this is a very good omen. He has been in pole position at Christmas on seven occasions in his managerial career, and each time he has won the title; twice at Porto, Chelsea and Inter Milan, once at Real Madrid. It is a stunning record.
