Spurs and Arsenal; first and second in the league, first and second in the Mood Rankings. Up to you which you think is more important. But it's this.
It’s north London all the way in the Barclays right now, and that’s inevitably reflected in the latest mood rankings as Crisis Club Manchester City plummet to fifth and Newcastle have the time of their lives.Hmm. Ah. Right. There’s still no definite reason to panic.
If you’re a decent chunk of the way into the season and you’ve scored the same number of Premier League goals as Wolves, then things are not going entirely well. And that’s before we even get to the fact United have made a complete bollocks of their first two Champions League games and remain beset by a wide and varied range of off-field stresses.
And if you think Chelsea have by now grown well beyond a stage where ‘bantering Spurs right off’ remains a key consideration,Getting there. Way less shit than they were a month ago, but still a bit shit. Most importantly, they do now appear unlikely to get themselves relegated because there are almost certainly three teams notably worse than they are.
And there they are. Ninth. Which is admittedly higher than normal, but we’re going to go right ahead and blame Manchester United and Chelsea for that. If ninth is a touch high for a Hodgson Palace, then the goals columns are absolutely spot on. A goal difference that sits proudly on zero; none of that flashy ‘positive goal difference’ showiness here, thank you very much.
They appeared very happy, very early with a point and ended up not even getting that from a team they have made a habit of toying with and destroying over many, many years Mailbox made the very reasonable point that the utterly joyous 4-1 Champions League dismantling of PSG may represent a true high point for fans
