Just 2 points behind 2nd place after 3 bad results in 5 games is not horrible. Liverpool would also be around if not lucky late wins. 

Don't worry, by next month, that gap will open up

We also had luck vs Palace, then against Fulham with that disallowed goal.

3 games, and the group of Tosin, Chalobah and Fofana have been awful., with each of them making mistake.

If Maresca wants to reduce that points gap, he better try something different with his backline. Bring back Josh Acheampong or Hato to play in the CB role.

The other 3 are squad level.

Tosin keeps backing off from the attacker in every 1 on 1, Chalobah can get caught napping on occasion, and Fofana is always knackered, unable to keep up with pacy attackers.

Yeah people on here shitting their pants and acting like the world is over after a few games. 
 

It’s honestly boring at this point. Can we improve on things? Sure. The seasons just started though ffs.

Brighton and Liverpool next, doubt the math will remain the same.

Strange, but bookies have us as slight favourites to beat Liverpool at this current moment of time...
