And finally, United with another title win during City's 2017/18 Centurions season.

How would each league table look if the Premier League gave each fixture Manchester City played to their opponents between the 2009/10 - 2017/18 seasons where the charges took place?

Starting with the 2009/10 - 2012/13 Seasons.

Understandable head loss from some Liverpool fans after last night. But bigger picture: should have won that match. Created enough chances to have won 3-2/4-2. Don’t think you can blame Slot for the missed chances

I wrote my first article on substack the other day. Got told this evening that it was used in a lecture at a football academy about coaching bias and factual data.. I'm very happy 😇

Here it is: "Don't Sack Amorim, Not Yet."

38% of Arsenal's goals conceded in the league have been from set pieces. Twelve goals conceded from an xG of 5.9, really unlucky. That's the lowest xG conceded from set pieces this season, as well as shot.

Only outlier compared to the other sides.

[The xG Philosophy @xGPhilosophy]

◎ xG has been used by pro gamblers to win millions
◎ xG has allowed teams like Brighton and Brentford to become Premier League mainstays
◎ xG is the reason Liverpool signed Mo Salah

But let’s throw it all in the bin because Jamie Redknapp doesn’t understand it 😂

Great to see people reacting to my new doc #TheSettlers - a reminder that if you’re in the UK you can watch it on BBC iPlayer https://t.co/WKdfFVQXfb

@petermckeever applying!!

While Pepe's fee was inflated for what Arsenal should have paid for him, he returned far better than perceived by fans and rivals alike. Just ten goals+assists short of Darwin who has played and cost more.

Maybe we need to discuss Grealish a bit more..

Liverpool and Arsenal find themselves in similar point situations as to last season at the same stage. One key difference: Liverpool's game in hand.

Arsenal were five points behind the leaders at this stage last season and finished the season seven points ahead.

Your annual reminder that the FA was legally forced to change the name of the Charity Shield to the Community Shield in 2002 after they failed to meet the minimum legal transparency requirements of how much money actually went to charities.

England's possible routes to the final in all their tournaments based on whether they finished 1st or 2nd in their group. They have had favourable runs in all of their tournaments, finishing 1st in three of their four groups.

[David | oddsdash.co.uk @david_htso]

Under Southgate, England have reached the Quarter-Finals as a minimum. The four tournaments before he took charge England were knocked out either in the group stage or the first knock-out round (EURO '12 had no round of 16).

[David | oddsdash.co.uk @david_htso]

Cont. The only tournament you could say Southgate was fortunate for a good run of fixtures was his first, the 2018 World Cup where a more favourable path appeared for the side who finished 2nd in the group, which England did.
