    Absolutely no reason to!

    And that comes from someone who diligently tries to watch every match.

    What jumps out here is the goals conceded, and consequential mediocre goal differential.

    We're joint low scorers, with Chelsea, but as they demonstrate, that can be partly overcome by being solid at the back (they're joint top in GA).

    Basically, we defend like Liverpool but score like Chelsea and it's not a winning combination. Our GD is far and away the worst of the top 6 sides.

    Nice. Sometimes people get too elaborate with their tactical or statistical analyses. But your sentence sums it up very concisely... just 14 words... well done.
