Avram Grant, the Chelsea manager, may have called for a play-off in the event of two teams finishing the English Premier League season level on points at the top of the table, but he was wrong to cite Italy as an example of his preferred option.
Serie A switched to considering teams’ head-to-head records a couple of years ago – a system that would see Manchester United win the title by virtue of their 3-2 aggregate lead over Chelsea.
Ultimately, however, Grant’s suggestions proved to be unnecessary. A glance at the “Points” column for 2007/08 will provide him with the separation he so craves.
