My personal opinion. I don't like being too far ahead on points. We're playing very lethargically (if that's even a proper word) Don't like it, never have done. It's like we're waiting for something to happen to us before we roll our sleeves up and take things seriously.

We've always been this way, we try to do just enough, it's one reason why we went out of the CL, because we always thought we had games in hand to rectify it.
Not always. It's slowly crept into our game this last year or so. What ever the cause of it, I do not know. I'm finding it a chore at times watching us play like this.

Indeed... i called us the procrastinators of footballl a while back... we chill the first matches and then we realise we should do something... but then we face a snowstorm and it's too late...

Happened exactly the same last year with 3 draws in the first matches, but we were lucky to win the other 3..

We weren't like that during Conte's first season. Once we've become a winning team (domestically) we've become cocky and with it lethargy crept in.

A little bit, it's difficult to generate desire when the team believes as much as everyone else that the scudetto is in the bag and was always ours to lose.

last matches;

Livorno [home]
udinese [away]
bologna [home]
Sassuolo [away]
Atalanta [home]
roma [away]
Cagliari [home]

these are the remaining games of the season. the last thing we want to do is drop points and be in a position to have a tricky game away to roma in the second last game of the season.

we aren't mathematically champs yet but we aren't far away. if we pick up 5 wins its done. only games im worried about here is roma and udinese both away matches. if we continue to progress in the European league then we need to maximize our 4 home matches

as long as we don't get any silly suspensions or serious injuries to our key players I feel pretty good about the remaining games. we will step it up
