Beating them to the title is what matters. If they take heart from a 2-2 draw even though they lost 3-0 and their main rivals are about to equal their title count.
I’d take our position now every day, they’ve just become Everton.
Quick update despite us losing the title last week:
6 points to win the title.
Arsenal need to outperform us by 13 points over the next 6 games, or 2.17 points per game.
If we draw all our remaining games, we win the league.
If we draw with Arsenal, we can afford to lose two of those games, i.e. 4 draws wins us the title (Arsenal would then only be able to finish on 79 points)
But we threw it all away losing to Fulham last week…
