Had we not had our brain fart vs Bournemouth we would currently be 16th on 12 points and they would be 17th with 10.
I know it hurts doesn't it, had we just switched to 433 a few games earlier maybe we'd be looking much more secure.
Still on the plus side we were relegated and adrift before last weekend, so it's exciting to suddenly be back in it!
If we'd lost on Saturday we'd now be 5 points adrift with a trip to Arsenal to come.
Yeah exactly, yet now we're within touching distance with two winnable home games to come. It's an interesting way to look at these games vs the top 6 sides, rather than just a painful experience it's much more of a free hit and a chance to make a move against the rest of the field. Lets treat the Arsenal game the same and go for another sneaky 1-0 or 2-1.
They're a free hit as long as there's no residual damage, like taking a drubbing and then having to cope with a loss of confidence, in the players, the club and the fans.
But in terms of points the Arsenal game is free as I'm sure we all would've taken 3 points from Liverpool and Arsenal.
