are euro soccer fans obsessed with the standings at 5% of the season like no other? i've seen this on this board constantly, and ive seen it off board too

like nobody in the nfl or nba or mlb is making much of the standings before the midway point. epl fans are obsessed with the table at seemingly every interval, no matter how small.

Back to the board

  - Yes, when you don't have a dumbass playoff that resets the board, the regular season matters. - By GritsGoBlue August 31, 2026 at 12:43:11 PM
  - As Uli Hoeness famously said, for the elite clubs, the season truly begins in May. But for lowly teams like Spurs, every single point counts from day one* - By Arctic August 31, 2026 at 12:19:52 PM
  - no playoffs + limited margin for error at the top-> early underperformance has material impacts on reaching goals (nm) - By suede August 31, 2026 at 12:04:00 PM
