Its great that we keep the unbeaten run going but we would've been 50% (points gain) better off losing to Leicester and beating Chelsea (or vice-versa). Without a doubt the 3 points for a win has made a huge difference to football....now if we still had 2 points for a win ...I wonder how much better off we would be in the league table?
No such thing as fairness in sport but I can easily see a scenario where we comfortably took 9 points from those games. Outplayed all three teams but couldn’t score.
On the balance of play over the 90 minutes in all three games I would say wins against Palace and Chelsea and a draw yesterday. All three superb and very enjoyable performances.
No defeats given the absence of Dunk & Biss is a pretty good return I think.
Yes, we should have beaten palace because they were truly shocking but draws against Chelsea & away at Leicester are perhaps more than could be expected.
Are we Chelsea's bogey club now? Our women got an excellent draw yesterday against the reigning league champions, WFA Cup & League Cup holders and CL finalists
