Win helped Chelsea move up to fourth place in standings and get important points. But Manchester City is also trying to finish in top four so competition will get even tougher. It is likely that Chelsea and Manchester City will fight very hard to get spot in the Champions League next season. So let's see who will win in this race.
Chelsea took their advantage and got three points which would have been very embarrassing to the players and coach if they had failed to used Southampton to increase their points and step up to the 4th place right now.
And why is everyone just leaving Nottingham Forest out of the picture in the contest for the top four and only putting Chelsea and Manchester city to the contest. I think Nottingham Forest has so much to do if they are to secure their 3rd place they currently sit, they are just with 1 point above Chelsea and 3 points on City which makes their position in the top four not certain because with about 11 matches still to be played before the end of the season a lot can happen.
