ManU with 15 points are 11 points behind Spurs after 10 games.
From their perspective, perhaps more importantly they are 7 points behind 5th place (last CL place) after 10 games.
So whilst there are still a lot of games left, there is already a gap opening up between them and CL, and they may need to settle for EL where the gap to 6th place is only 2 points. Lots of games left to change that position but surely that should be a kick up the back side for ETH to have that gap so early .in the season ?
I tell ya what would be hilarious.... If they finished 5th but missed out on CL cos they themselves wrecked the EPL coefficient by being so shit in Europe this year!
