Well, my goodness. Liverpool spit the bit today--didn't lose but didn't win. Which means they drew. 1-1 was the result at Anfield and so City escape the Newcastle Nightmare only five recoverable points behind the leaders.

This was a strange two days of matches. Arsenal won but barely, 2-1, at home to Cardiff. Manchester United needed a Fergie-era stoppage time goal to draw with Burnley. And today Bournemouth shook and stirred Chelsea 4-0 at the Martini Glass.

So after this chaotic 48 hours Liverpool are +5 on City who are +2 on Tottenham who are +7 on the "Gunners" who are dead even with Chelsea on points, wins and goal difference. Chelsea is up 2 on United in sixth place. Helluva Premier League season. Helluva season.
