Here are five things that seem a bit daft but could definitely now happen after the Premier League went a bit woo-woo.
That was a fun Premier League weekend, wasn’t it? Set some cats among some pigeons, didn’t it? Shifted the sands beneath our feet, yeah? Made us all feel a bit silly for thinking there was a title race, hasn’t it?
Now the first problem is that either Liverpool or Arsenal are going to need to be largely blemish-free for six games now, and Sunday suggests neither are in such a place. City’s Premier League record at Spurs’ new ground is infamously bad, but they did lay some ghosts to rest with a bloodless FA Cup win there in January. It is not a fixture that holds the same fear for City now as it would have in the autumn when Spurs were flying. They should win it.
It’s still tremendously uncertain whether that fifth Champions League place will head England’s way or not – with a very good chance we won’t know for sure until the European finals play out after the domestic season is finished. Spurs have a horrible run-in. As well as that trip to Chelsea they host Arsenal and Manchester City and go to Anfield. Sure, their other two games are against Burnley and Sheffield United; but those both come in the final week of the season when some mightily unexpected scoreboard pressure might be in place and the scent of doing something really Spursy overpowering the senses.
Now that Newcastle and Chelsea are being less silly, United are in trouble. Real trouble. Their own silliness – six points from their last seven games and lucky to have that many – has opened a door that Chelsea may now march through. But everyone else staying ahead of United and Chelsea joining them seems not just possible but now perhaps even probable. Eighth place and thus eclipsing Moyes surely has to be the benchmark for United catastrophe and they are now very much on track.It is to the unending shame of everyone else in the league, and the league’s own slapdash approach to points penalties, that Burnley retain survival hopes that extend beyond the mathematically theoretically possible.
