Premier League football may or may not start again, but what has been removed from the table is a void season. If you can’t play more soccer, the table might well be decided by PPG (points per game), just because all the teams haven’t played the same number of games.
But would it be fairer to consider the form? Surely you should recognize an increase in form brought about by a change of manager or the January signature, while a simple pandemic should not stop an impolite slide on the table.
So we came up with a table that reflects the shape. The results of the last nine / ten games of the reduced season basically count twice for each team to finish the season with a total of 38 game points, which seems to be a better reflection of the way the season unfolded. .
Some things to keep in mind …
* Assuming Manchester City’s European ban is upheld, Manchester United narrowly clings to last place in the Champions League, thanks to a massive increase in the way it keeps them ahead, this will never be weird, Sheffield United.
* The Blades would be joined in the Europa League by Arsenal (whose form has dramatically improved under Mikel Arteta) and probably Wolves.
* Tottenham really are pretty, pretty sh * t. Although they would they argue that returning players It may have changed that horrible shape.
* Of the six clubs with problems, Watford is the only team with a pedigree that can come out of the mud.
* Brighton somehow survives on goal difference despite being the worst team in the Premier League in its current form.
* Aston Villa is relegated on goal difference despite his game in hand; Such a serious defense cannot be allowed to survive.
* Norwich is screwed.
