At 18:17, the fine margins are evident. It highlights the importance of defeating the teams in close competition, as seen three seasons ago during the last title race between Klopp and Pep. Liverpool failed to win any of the games against their rivals who finished in the UCL spots-City, Chelsea, and Tottenham. Drawing all six matches ultimately cost them the title; even a single victory out of those six would have secured it for them. Similarly, Chelsea's subpar record against the traditional big four was detrimental; they managed only one win against the grand slam four throughout the entire season.

Literally. Chelsea lost 3 games the whole of that season while Man United who won the league lost 5 games. Chelsea drew like 13 games that season.

[@ashleythomas4112]

@@D93-w5q Yeah, Chelsea drew their last 5 straight league games that season which completely finished any chance of the title.

​@@ashleythomas4112 They recorded 11 draws that season, which significantly hampered their chances, especially at home. They drew against a newly promoted Reading team, and although the Royals had a remarkable season, narrowly missing out on European football, it was a missed opportunity. They also drew at home to Fulham, who barely avoided relegation that year, in the match where Moritz Volz scored the 15,000th Premier League goal. Additionally, they drew both home and away against Villa and away at Newcastle-all bottom-half teams, except for Reading, who finished an impressive 8th in their debut Premier League season. These results ultimately cost them dearly. Manchester United outscored Chelsea by 19 goals that season, 83 to 64. Drogba delivered with 22 goals, and Kalou added 7, but Andriy Shevchenko managed only 4. Shevchenko's transfer, heavily favored by Roman Abramovich, created a rift with Jose Mourinho, who preferred Samuel Eto'o. The tension peaked when Mourinho benched Shevchenko for a match against Wigan, following his failed attempts to sign Milan Baros and Jermain Defoe. Abramovich's directive to Mourinho was to make no further striker signings and to utilize Shevchenko effectively. This mandate reflected poorly on Abramovich, as it highlighted his personal insistence on Shevchenko's signing due to their close relationship, and exacerbated the situation when Mourinho declined to appoint a Russian-speaking coach, presumed to be his successor, Avram Grant.Indeed, Jose Mourinho was furious when Shevchenko withdrew from Chelsea's Champions League penalty shootout defeat to Liverpool due to a groin injury, an incident that marked his last appearance. This event triggered a series of occurrences that culminated in Mourinho's dismissal at the beginning of the next season. While Chelsea struggled to score, Manchester United had no such issues. Ronaldo was nearing his peak with 17 goals, Rooney contributed 14, Saha added 8, and even Solskjaer, returning after four grueling years of knee issues dating back to the 2003/04 season, matched Kalou's tally of 7 goals.

[@ProductionRms]

Should have won that game! Remember doing the double over United and beating Liverpool at Anfield twice in 3 days!

[@hafeji19]

The two Liverpool games and the Man Utd game was in January of 2007, and the victory at Old Trafford was Sep 2006, their last victory in the league there for 14 years.
