Then there's U****d at Burnley back in August. Look at Chelsea, even: they had a game when they were 1-0 up at home coming up to half time, cruising against a side that had shown almost nothing, they should have made it 2-0 and end of story, but instead the ball got hoofed upfield and a careless slip put the away team's striker through on goal to tie it up. Who'd have thought those lucky visitors would go on to win that game 4-1?

Not having a go mate, but this is irrelevance if only for irrelevance sake! You could actually say the same for the losses at Spurs or Everton.

No, it's the "We've had a good season, but bloody hell, we've had some dodgy results and we could have done a lot better" thread.

Points thrown away.

Everton(1pt)
Hull(2pts)
Burnley(2pts)
Fulham(2pts)
Away
Hull(3pts)
Everton(1pt)
Stoke(2pts)
Wigan(2pts)
Points earned but not counted on.
Home
Chelsea(2pts)
Arsenal(2pts)
Away
Liverpool(1pt)
Arsenal(1pt)
Chelsea(3pts)
So overall I think we are down 6 points which we can make up two of against Spurs. Not bad for a team that is entirely changed from two years ago(barring a couple of squad players).
