    Then you were guilty of poor analysis as the calendar date is not meaningful, only the number of games.

    HA!

    It was the only data available and is valid as a rough guide. It certainly disproved your point that we were out of the running by this "time" - you're clearly wrong about three of those five seasons here and your failure to acknowledge so just undermines you

    Where did I fail to acknowledge it? I admitted I was surprised by the fact that we were top of the league or very close three times which is effectively acknowledging it. Although it wasn't really true, was it? If you want to play with numbers over the past four seasons at the same stage of the season we have been 17, 13, 6 and 4 points back.

    So 'out of it by now' twice in four seasons. And that analysis when compared to our current position does not reflect the great start that City and Liverpool have had, of course.

    City actually had four more points this time last season than Liverpool do this
