I still think Grant is simply running on the coattails of the side Jose built during his time at Chelsea. They have some really excellent players on the field in the likes of Drogba, Lampard, Terry, Essien, etc and I think that's what is carrying them through currently.
Grant seems to make some rather odd decisions that I think will be his undoing during the run-in for the title. Of course, if he stops doing weird things like playing Anelka as a winger and Essien as a right-back, things might gel for them.
Yes, they are our greatest threat for the title now that Arsenal has seemingly caved, but I don't think they are enough of a threat to keep our hands off the trophy again this year.
