The premier league table contains the strongest teams in the country and is literally there to illustrate the position of the teams who have done 'the best'. Are Utd really second best in the league because they had less success over the year against the 20 best clubs in the country but won a knockout cup against weaker opponents?
No I never suggested United we’re the 2nd best team far from it!!!
My point was that I believe The reason arsenal came 2nd last year is due to the fact that they only had the premiership to focus on which aided there performance last season went out carabao cup early forest, beat by city early in fa cup also - hence had a week to prepare for most games and able to field consistent team
