So Chelsea's hopes of retaining the Premiership crown are dead? Try telling that to John Terry. Though he admits Chelsea are now outsiders for the Title, JT has reminded everyone that Manchester united are not invincible and that Chelsea still must play them twice this season.

The first meeting is early next week as the two teams meet at Stamford Bridge in what realistically is going to be the last hurrah for Chelsea if the club are to remain Premier League Champions. Join me over the jump to see why there is substance to Terry's determined mindset.

It might seem like a 12 point lead is too much to come back from, but it has happened before. Back in 1996, Newcastle United lost such a lead as Manchester United snatched the Title away from them.

It was a spectacular end to a season. If Chelsea can manage it this season, it would be one hell of a comeback which few are predicting. But as long as the Chelsea Captain believes it can happen, so too surely must the Chelsea faithful.
