.... Well, prior to
our last two defeats we were doing pretty well in being undefeated and not conceding goals - in fact Arsenal's undefeated run includes several 'draws' - ours was almost all of wins...
but on current 6 games form Spurs are the best team at the moment...
however over the last 8 games United are the best form side, having not drawn 5 like Arsenal, which in terms of points is 10 dropped, unlike United losing two games which is just 6 dropped...
stats are useful when you want to show teams in good or bad light (Man United must be the current worst team over the past two games for example... whereas Liverpool the best)
the next games and the finishing position are generally key to form - whoever wins the league is the best team, because point accrued = best form over 38 games... we'll see how well Spurs and Arsenal fare at the end of the season....
