The games against the bottom 6 or 7 are where hou really need to be picking up alot of points, in our 13 games against bottom 7 we are W6 D4 L3, that's 22 points out of 39. Which is at least 10 points less that we should be looking for from those games which despite everything else this season would put us comfortably in the CL places.Our home record in those games is abysmal: Lost to Forest, Drew with Burnley Leeds, Spurs only beat West Ham and Wolves (with Palace still to play) 9 points out of 18.
Could make a similar arguement about almost all the teams in the top six or seven this season with regards to their records against lower teams.
City dropped points in two games against Brighton, they dropped points against West Hame , they dropped points in two games against Spurs, they dropped points against Forest. They also dropped points against teams we have managed to beat.
Man U dropped points against Brentford, West Ham, Burnley, Leeds, spurs, Wolves, Forest , Fulham etc.
Same goes for Villa and Chelsea.
Is how the league is this season. Everyone is taken points from everyone else and all the teams near the top look awful a lot of the team. Arsenal at the only one that are looking awful but that are grinding out results.
