As you all know you're going to win the title and well done to you guys cuz you deserve it and hope you go on and win the champions league. But the question i want to ask you is this. On monday we play Arsenal in the north London derby and if we get a draw or we win you'll be champions. As Mourinho and some other guy on this bored said he'd rather see Arsenal beat Tottenham and wait for the title to be won. Who do you guys want to win on monday. I know this is probably a stupid question but i'm just curious thats all? :)

I'll be damned if I root for anything other than a bore 0-0 draw between Arse and Sperzzzz.

I want Arsenal to win.
Why?
Well, it has nothing to do with not wanting Spurs to win actually, more to do with i would rather have the players do the actual event that wins the title - as opposed to watching a game that detemines the destination.
Now, if Arsenal and Spurs had played today, at the same time, i would have wanted a Spurs win.
See what i'm getting at?

I was under the impression that after such a long wait, you would want the title asap. Since you are so far ahead, I suppose it doesn't really matter though. One good thing about Arsenal winning, would be that it keeps your players totally focused. Winning the league before the first Liverpool game could potentially have a negative impact.

I definitely see your point. In my mind, though, the title is not won or lost with one event, be that a CFC win, an Arse loss, or anything else. Over the course of the season, the players have won the title for themselves, so I don't think anyone could ever construe them as backing into it now. Thus, being that it's a North London Derby, I'm rooting for nil-nil.

today in the post-game interview, Jose said he would want Arsenal to win because he didn't want his players to lose thier focus prior to our CL match. I completely agree with him.

Well, in all reality, the title is already won, has been for quite some time.
It would just be better for the fans if it were on a Saturday (or Sunday) that they were all up and about for with Chelsea actually playing.

I actually want Asrenal to drop points. I'm thinking that if we have the title in the bag, we can rest our whole first team next saturday, and be far better prepared to take on Liverpool in the second leg.

Rest assured though that a lot of the sad tossers from N17 would somehow gloat about their team taking the title away from us if they do manage to get a draw or a win especially if it's finally sealed at Highbury. We'd never hear the end of it. Hell, some of them still gloat about the rather unfortunate Nayim-incident from almost a decade back.

Theres no way we can lose, the irony of winning the title at theirs last season and losing the title at Highbury would be too much too take.

I definitely want an Arsenal win. Why wouldn't you want the atmosphere of actually winning it on the day?

For the sake of my fantasy team I need Defoe to do some work and Reyes not to score. Honestly, it doesn't matter to me as I don't think the players will lose focus and the game against Bolton is away so it wouldn't be the party it would have been at the Bridge.

KJ you are so right, us sad tossers from N17 will gloat no doubt. and Nayim from the half way line is and will always be a classic. :p

This is a toss up for me......on the one hand I would love to see Chelsea win the title on Saturday's game so that we, as fans, would get to be a part of the celebration. I also think about what Jose said about them being focused, and he may have a point. That being said.........I would love the spurs to beat Arse! Not to mention, if they have the title won on monday, they could put all their focus and attention on the Champions League.
