Reading the headlines I would like to congratulate LFC to the well deserved title win 2019 after a fantastic performance!.. :-/
All that "fine margins and 11-or-29.5-mm rubbish" is extremely getting on my nerves.
No one in the public has the guts to say it like it is:
Pickford +2 points
Rico +2 points
Speroni +2 points
Lloris +2 points
Mahrez pen +1 point and City -2 points
Milner 2 miles offside at WHU +1 point.
Tottenham denied stonewall penalty in injury time +2 points
---------------------------------------------
12 fuckin points from pure luck where dippers didn't have any influence, without even talking about dodgy penalties.
Fine margins, pff.
I am ready to negotiate my calculation but I don't remember comparable PL situations where City has been that lucky.
In my book LFC had a well respectable 87 points season and some really good matches, esp CL.
Will be interesting if they are able to repeat such a - in every respect - perfect season.
I doubt that very much.
2nd half of the season btw reads like this:
.................................W D L...F..A..GD...P
1 Manchester City.......19 18 0 1 44:8 +36 54
2 FC Liverpool.......... 19 14 4 1 46:15 +31 46
3 Manchester United....19 10 4 5 28:23 +5 34
4 FC Arsenal.............19 10 2 7 32:26 +6 32
5 FC Chelsea.............19 9 5 5 26:23 +3 32
6 Wolverhampton........19 9 4 6 27:24 +3 31
7 Crystal Palace..........19 9 3 7 34:28 +6 30
8 Newcastle United......19 8 4 7 28:22 +6 28
9 FC Burnley..............19 8 4 7 28:27 +1 28
10 FC Everton............19 8 3 8 23:17 +6 27
11 Tottenham Hotspur...19 8 2 9 25:21 +4 26
That table does much more reflect how I feel about the current PL situation. We are dominating.
