What are you basing that on exactly? To get 40 points you need just over 1.05points per game on average, the bottom 9 teams are all on course for a sub 40 point finish as it stands. The bottom 5 teams are on course for under 35 points, though that does include Palace whose first 7 games and Hodgson only taking over before a Manchester away double means their ppg since is enough to go quite a bit higher than 40, at the same time, other teams are doing much worse since.

On the last 8 games alone there are 8 teams with a less than 1 ppg average (watford gone to crap on 0.5, Palace on a strong 1.38).

This season looks very much like at least 4 teams won't make it to 40 and wouldn't be surprising if 5 didn't.

Nothing really, I haven't looked at past tables or anything, was just a musing. Bournemouth won the other day and went from the bottom 3 to 13th, I can't really remember a year like that, we say 40 is the magic number but obviously that's just a rough number. I wouldn't be surprised to see 2 clubs in the higher 30's maybe a club on 39/40 get relegated this year

What about last season, 6 points covered 8th to 17th :p
 
What on earth did Chambers do there. Its not like Cech was anywhere near being able to come for that. He literally saw Morata chasing the ball and motioned for Cech to somehow beat Morata to the ball. Luckily Morata made a mess of the simple finish.

e: another simple chance from Morata missed
 
Hes one of those players who seems like he is used to strolling about and playing the game at a languid pace. Always looks a yard behind everyone else and doesn't seem to try. At least Mata is half a yard behind everyone else because he is just slow.
