Points totals mean nothing when compared against what teams have done in the past.
It's a reflection of the (poor) strength of the league rather than the clubs amassing such totals. The fact that 2 clubs got points in the high 90's shows just how shit the league is this year. Yes, City and Liverpool were good. But the idea that this dippers team is better than United, Chelsea and Arsenal teams of the past that won the title is laughable. Shankly was right, 2nd is nowhere. |

97 points is impressive, but I've never known so much fuss over a points total. Who cares? How many points totals could you name from our 20 title wins? Do they not the possession stats of their 5 European Cups or do they just say they've won 5. Do tennis players count their aces when they're a beaten finalist. It's a stat. A footnote. What you win is all that counts. You'd rather be Leicester winning it with 77 than finishing 2nd with 97. As I said to a Liverpool fan this week. Well done, you did as well as United did last season. |

Spurs have been decimated by injuries this season and they've managed to claw their way to there CL final. A fully fit Tottenham will go toe to toe with Liverpool, no team will spank the other. It will all come down to which team clicks on the day, anyone writing off Spurs are forgetting how good they can be when they hit their stride.

But I'm going 3-1 to the dippers with an Eric Dier red card in the mix as well. |
