Cool. Shall I close the thread now?Yes. They'll go deep in the shit Europe comp.
Next.
There's only been 9 games played, how many points off the top should you be?Yes. If you think about it we’ve won all of our league games bar Palace that we were expected / should have won.
These top class clubs who are showing a lot more than us aren’t as abundant as made out to be when we’re somehow 6 points off top
4 points worse off against the same / equivalent fixtures played last yearThere's only been 9 games played, how many points off the top should you be?
Unless your looking forcan CL spotWho cares? 1st is 1st, second is nowhere, third and beyond is even worse.
You were much sounder when Villa were shitThere's only been 9 games played, how many points off the top should you be?
I didn't actually mean it as an insult. I just said with only 27 points in play so far Man. United won't be that far off the main teams as even with your issues back to front you still have quality players who can win games with individual brilliance so with five wins you'll still be in the mix for top 6.You were much sounder when Villa were shit
Based on what I've seen so far that would mean finishing above one of Liverpool or Arsenal. I know it's a long old season and Liverpool and Arsenal have flaws but they've both had very good starts to the season. Pretty much win all the time at home and some impressive away results aswell.Hard to tell, could see us finish as high as third and as low as tenth.

That’s a grim read.To put it another way, we lost all the games we've played against top 6 sides by two goals, lost the only game we've played against a midtable side and won 5 games against lower half sideall of them by single goal. If you're trying to sell that as anywhere near half-decent, you're not gonna find many takers I think.
We'll probably finish somewhere in between but I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if either of them had major collapse mid season, Liverpool are rather light in personnel so a injury crisis would hit them particularly hard and arsenal still have question marks around them mentally speaking.Based on what I've seen so far that would mean finishing above one of Liverpool or Arsenal.

Agree on that with the amount of self falagellation on here it’s the Samaritans they need not red cafeGreat thread....
Aren't there enough places to moan on here for us? This is a weird one.
Yeah. It we’ve won all our games that we should have won bar Palace, that’s not as easy as it sounds. Plus we really shouldn’t have lost away to Arsenal or Spurs (imo)To put it another way, we lost all the games we've played against top 6 sides by two goals, lost the only game we've played against a midtable side and won 5 games against lower half sideall of them by single goal.

Liverpool have won 2 away games so far this season which includes that freak Newcastle game?!. Nothing impressive at allBased on what I've seen so far that would mean finishing above one of Liverpool or Arsenal.

That's a bit of a naive way of looking at it. Realistically we're 6 points off top having had an easier start than City, Arsenal and Liverpool.Yes. If you think about it we’ve won all of our league games bar Palace that we were expected / should have won.

Liverpool last season were abysmal away from home up to pretty much April when they had a belated rally to finish 4th. This season already they've got a point at Chelsea (which will look better as season goes on), a miraculously/flukey win at Newcastle (again they don't lose many at SJP these days) and a point at Brighton which is decent. Even being 10 seconds from getting a draw with 9 men at Spurs was an incredible effort.We'll probably finish somewhere in between but I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if either of them had major collapse mid season, Liverpool are rather light in personnel so a injury crisis would hit them particularly hard and arsenal still have question marks around them mentally speaking.
The chances of it happening are pretty low though I admit.
As I've said just above their run has included Chelsea, Newcastle, Spurs and Brighton so far. They'll start winning more away games once they play the bottom half regularly just due to Salah and others in attack.Liverpool have won 2 away games so far this season which includes that freak Newcastle game?!.

And we’ve lost two away games to Spurs and Arsenal. I still don’t see your pointAs I've said just above their run has included Chelsea, Newcastle, Spurs and Brighton so far. They'll start winning more away games once they play the bottom half regularly just due to Salah and others in attack.
Man. United won 8 away games last season to finish comfortable top 4 so I'd expect Liverpool to exceed that.
Had to check back and the remarkable statistic there is 23 prem away games under Ten Hag and you've only won an away game by more than one goal twice, 2-0s at Leeds and Forest.
When they play Burnley and Sheffield United they'll win those games comfortably...imo.And we’ve lost two away games to Spurs and Arsenal. I still don’t see your point
