But the point is in terms of how hard it is to win the league, it doesn't really matter how good the mid table sides are! We all know that there are only ever going to be 3 or 4 teams capable of winning it so all that matters is the strength of them. If the likes of City or Chelsea were still picking up 90+ points then fair enough you could say it's tougher by having to pick up that many points to win the league and against better mid table opposition.Robin_L wrote:Toughest to win in years.
You've got Bojan playing for Stoke, the likes of Mahrez happy to ply his trade at a club the size of Leicester. Payet at West Ham. Top quality players just happy to get their foot in the door and play in this league.
It's the toughest league in Europe and the toughest to win in years, nevermind about Chelsea falling away, it's about the fact that you have most teams in the league capable of taking points off anyone else.
So, toughest to win in years. Still, it's funny to read those people looking to get their anti-Wenger excuses formed nice and early just in case we do happen to win it
Very interesting to read Robin L above saying Mahrez and Payet are Top quality players when on the Ozil post says the jury is still outnorthbank123 wrote:But the point is in terms of how hard it is to win the league, it doesn't really matter how good the mid table sides are!

Strength of the mid table sides is irrelevant as they will also take more points off title contenders so no relative difference.

Similarly, should he fail, the excuse is at the ready. Just because teams are beating other teams it doesn't follow that it's the toughest league to win. It's nonsense reasoning. If anything it suggests the opposite.Nos89 wrote:This has got to be the toughest season to win the league. Any team can beat any other team, (apart from Villa). This shows the quality of teams in the league, it does not mean every team is rubbish, it means every team is more even than before. With the money in the game, not all the quality players will go to the traditional big 5 as they won't always play. We are so conditions to having one or two teams leading the way that when it doesn't happen it is interpreted as being a poor season. Its much better when the league is more competitive. This season will be decided on the quality of the manager, and right now Raneiri is showing his quality as a manager. When we done the double in 70/71 the same was being said then. In that season Leeds, Liverpool, were the leading teams but then Stoke and Derby were decent teams. There were some erratic results that season.
On the point that this team is a bunch of bottlers we bottled it in 1999 & 2003 when we had a team full of world class players who were defending champions...so I don't think that argument sits with this team. We can beat Bournemouth and still go top, so the Southampton game was a bit of a bye...it wont mean anything at the end of the season.
