Yes, sure - the scoreboard is what counts.

But it's difficult to see which team is supposed to be the contender from today's game.

Both of us have given Man United the fifth-highest
SophCon probability of winning the title, just saying.
(IrCOve been less bullish than you though, 8%?)

But on a more general note, it used to be unthinkable
for Arsenal to go to Old Trafford, play badly, and still
win.

I don't do the SophCon thing but I'd give any team other
than Liverpool or Manchester City a low percentage of winning
the Premier League title. I just can't see anyone outside of
those two being contenders this season.

It was a strange game.

A poor Arsenal performance ended in victory.

A good Man United performance ended in defeat.

That's football.
