Yep, anyone optimistically looking at us being 'only' 7 points behind City is in for a shock when the fixtures level out.Results are not terrible when you look at the table but what’s with our fans bragging all over the place for the last few days about being just 7 points behind City and 6 behind Arsenal and Liverpool as if it’s good?
We are only 12 games into the season, we have already played 8 out of the bottom 10 teams including all of bottom 3, and if you extrapolate our current gap to these teams over the course of season we are going to end up around 20 points behind all of them - and that’s not even factoring in our easy calendar so far.
Results are not ‘good’ by any means.
We're lucky to have as many points as we have so far. Goal difference is a big indicator, lack of goals is going to ruin us.
