It's unlikely Chelsea, City and Utd will have another season like this but we're more than likely to have a season where we're ending up in the 70 points bracket at the end of the season.
All teams will drop points in games when they've gone ahead. If it's perceived that it's a particular problem with us then I think it's useful to compare with other teams to see whether it's something which happens more than other teams. That's my reasoning for doing it. And maybe a comparison with ourselves in other seasons would be useful to see if it's something which has got worse or better.
