JOSE MOURINHO has told his Chelsea players that just five wins and a single draw from their remaining eight matches will seal the title ahead of Manchester United and Arsenal.
The Blues secured a vital 2-1 win over Stoke at Stamford Bridge this afternoon, with goals from Eden Hazard and Loic Remy cancelling out
Charlie Adam's first-half wonder-strike.
Both Arsenal and United secured big victories earlier today over Liverpool and Aston Villa respectively to crank the pressure on Chelsea.
However, the west London outfit remain seven points ahead of the pack with a game in hand, and Mourinho believes that the title is within Chelsea's reach if they can keep producing victories from now until the end of the season.
He told BBC Sport: "In this moment, it is five victories and a done draw. Every victory and a draw is one step ahead. The others know they have to win every game.
"For us, we have to think about ourselves and forget about others. We know we have eight matches and we need five victories and a draw."
