Yes we got done against Chelsea, but in my opinion it serves little purpose in looking back at it unless we do the same with every other incident that has effected our season.
Of course anyone could look at every possible situation that may have impacted on any game and you would probably say that most games should end 0-0.

A lot of things have been inside our control and we have been good, but maybe not good enough.

However there have been extraordinary events that have seriously affected our season that were outside our control. The loss of Sala is obvious.

Then some of the most ludicrous officiating known to humanity, so close to the end of the season has a huge impact.

If we are within 2 points from safety at the end of the season, most reasonable people would agree that the Chelsea will have cost us our Premier league status.
