I think there is going to be a real concern this season that the bottom 3 is pretty much done and dusted by January leading to all the mid-table teams being on the beach for 4-5 months.
It's going to end up causing cruise games for us and our rivals against any mid-table side, meaning the games we have against each other are the deciders.
It will be like in the American leagues when certain teams know they cannot make the play-offs.
Worst 3 promoted teams I have seen in the PL for me, pound for pound. The fact Everton could and probably will stay despite a 10 points deduction is even more damning. The league as whole is weaker because of it.
