The Gap Widens
This has become a boring soccer season in England. The also-rans just will not seperate themselves. Today, three clubs could have, none did. Third Leicester lost at HOME to 10th Arsenal, and then second Man-U played in London against fifth Chelsea. The result was a 0-0 draw. That’s lame. Nobody wants badly enough to be the clear runner-up. So the gap at the top widened today. Manchester City are now twelve points clear of second-place United, thirteen points in front of Leicester and eighteen points ahead of Chelsea. The defending champions, Liverpool, are in sixth place nineteen points off City’s pace. It’s pathetic.
