Best defensive record - it is completely different. So we have the 4th best goalie and the 4th best right back and the 4th best left back etc etc. Is that what we are saying? Pretty sure we aren't. If we had 100 percent possession (illogical as that is) and it was all in their half then my Gran could play in net. The argument is about the actual quality of the defenders themselves not about the team as a whole. In your argument Tottenham and Chelsea have better attackers than us - and up until the last game you would have to say Liverpools attack was as good as ours.Hahaha this comment is gold.
What is the purpose of defending? To keep the ball out of your own net.
If you concede 0 goals all season and achieve that by 100% possession, you still have the best defence.
