A few interesting tidbits about the end of season stats:
We had the most goals of any team by over 20 goals! Despite our problems at times, we still had the 2nd fewest goals allowed only behind Chelsea. Arsenal's fall to around 8th has been consistent for a few seasons now. They seem to be having problems finding a reliable keeper as well as two good centrebacks who work well together.
Middlesbrough had another surprising season coming in 3rd.
