Well this season's strange shaping continues.
It really does seem that no side wants to grab the competition by its throat. It is still looking like most places (at top & bottom) are still open for nearly anybody.
The Gunners fail to tighten their grip on the top spot in what must be their best chance in years to gain the top prize.
Citi (who have by far the best squad in the country) just can't get enough consistency to make their case. Given the implosion at Chelsea, this should have been a season where they just strolled to the title.
Leicester, on the other hand, continue to defy all expectations & are, already, theoretically safe from relegation, just as the second half of the season starts. The turnaround from last year is still quite bewildering to me..
At the bottom, really only Big Sam's Sunderland can look on the week with much satisfaction. Remarkably that is after bottom side Villa win & Newcastle draw with ManU.
It is starting to look like it could end up being a bit of a dog fight down there, with new boys Bournemouth & Norwich being drawn into the mire. Currently Swansea look the most in danger though. Only 1 point away from the zone & not looking much like winning for too long..
but if it makes you feel better i,ll go along with it
