Brentford, last season IIRC.
Yeah that was the last defeat. The 25 mins we trailed for were against Spurs and the dippers
Took over him tonight with 103 wins - 6 behind Ancelotti and the record.
You won‘t hear that from any mainstream media, will upset the little scallions from Trafford.
To be fair to TNT, Darke said it in commentary but I didn’t quite hear exactly what he said because I was concentrating on the game. But after the game TNT showed a graphic with it on and discussed it in the studio.
TNT were good but let’s see what the rest of the old print media do with it. I’m assuming Sky will make it a big filler and the Mail, et al, will at least have a half page comparison.
Good point
Ancelotti 193
We were all set to go after the top three when I posted this but we didn’t get any higher than 2093 due to poor performances in Europe by other PL clubs and then the Wolves defeat hit. We are currently at 2074 so 19 points behind ourselves, if you see what I mean. Not impossible for us to get back up there this season though. Beating Arsenal 5-0 away would help tremendously!Best (most dominant) teams of all time. Our rating is now so high that it’s difficult to earn more than 2 elo points for a win, a draw would drop us by about 8 points and a defeat would be about a 15 point drop. Only PL and European matches count. We can also win/lose points from how other PL clubs fair in Europe (about 27% of their match total elo points) Can we catch any of the top three before our run ends? Beating Forest, Wolves and Leipzig would probably get us 3rd.

p.s. Pep looks to be the difference. He can’t leave until we are No 1….it’s only fair or he has short changed us ;-)
p.p.s We would be third now had we avoided defeat to Brentford and second had we beaten them.
This one didn't last too long as West Ham have extended to 17 now.
Didn't hear anything on the BBC of us equalling this on Wednesday or Pep going over the total wins of baconface however, little Micky was bouncing around like a 4 year old on Xmas day trampoline present this morning about West Ham going to 17.
How many are in the European Conference League ? how many in the Europa league? How many in the Champions league v City all in the Champions league - it’s like comparing apples and oranges
Why does a team's rating get affected by other teams' performances in Europe? Do you know?
Yes. It’s because a part of determining how strong a team is is knowing how strong the league is. Celtic win every week but are they the best team in the World or are they just ok in a weak league? When PL teams play in Europe it affects how strong or weak the league is in relation to others. So clubs can earn elo points for themselves but are also reliant, to a lesser extent, on other PL teams earning points too.
Cheers. That makes sense.
