City has dropped 2 points against bottom 7 teams and surprisingly Chelsea has dropped fewer points against bottom 7 than Spurs, United and Liverpool despite Chelsea is 5th in the league position.
If United dropped the same amount of points as City against bottom 7 team, would be still behind City by 4 points and above Liverpool by 21 points gap. Also If United had the same amount of points as last season against the bottom 7 teams, would be still behind City by 9points.
However, United has dropped 16 points against a 7-13th team last season but only improved this season by dropping just 6 points meaning United have gained more 10 points from 7-13th this season with a game in hand than last season and also gained more 10 points but dropped more 9 points from 13-20th placed this season than last season, I think this is not really kind of improvement I would expect from United against bottom 7 teams.
Let's see how City progressed from last season, City has gained biggest difference points compared to last season than any team with a game in hand. City has dropped more 4 points against 7th-13th, 2 less than United with a game in hand against the 13th team but City has gained more 8 points from the 7-13th season, only dropped more 2 points from the bottom 7 team with a game in hand and gained 12 points from top 6 sides, which is their biggest difference point they have gained compared to last season. It's not about how the shit bottom team is compared to last season but top 6 sides allowed City to walk the league easily as they gifted City 12 points more than last season. If we didn't improve our difference point against bottom 7 teams next season compared to this season despite probably keeping the same amount of point we would gain next season against 1st to 13th compared to this season, we won't win the league. If we do improve, we would be in a good chance of winning the league next season but it'd be difficult and hopefully, City won't replicate next season.
United's biggest weakness is set species as they conceded nearly half of the goals coming from set pieces that easily resulted in a draw and loss - Newcastle, Stoke City, Burnley, Leicester City, West Brom so we dropped 11 points from that than any team but we need to improve this and prevent this from happening again next season otherwive we would need to outscore team first by at least 2 goals before we conceded a goal from set pieces to assure that we don't drop point from that. On other hands, our attacking display is so meh, so cold and hot, inconsistent. Looked worse against bottom seven placed.
That's why I don't have enough confidence that there would be literally improvement next season, there would be 50/50 we would get worse or going opposites in a different way like we gotten worse against 14th to 20th or gotten better against 7-13th and top 6 sides, we need to do both at same time, hopefully, better.
Hopefully, we can sort this out next season.
