The woodwork denied Arsenal the title!
The Gunners would have won the Premier League this season if shots against the post or bar had gone in.
Arsene Wenger's side finished the season on a high with a 4-0 win over Aston Villa, which, coupled with Tottenham's defeat at Newcastle, ensured they finished above their north London rivals in second.
However, Arsenal once again missed out on the Premier League crown, this time to surprise winners Leicester.
During the course of the campaign, Arsenal hit the woodwork more than any other Premier League team.
Had every team's shots against the woodwork counted as goals, Arsenal would have actually finished top of the table - and sealed their first title triumph since 2003/04.
Other teams who would have benefited in the alternative table are West Ham - who would have been champions had they not lost on the final day to Stoke - and Manchester City.
Leicester slip to fourth in this alternative table while Tottenham - who finished third in the 2015/16 Premier League - would be way down in seventh. A win for Manchester United over Bournemouth would move Spurs down to eighth in this league.
There would be no change at the bottom of the table with Aston Villa, Norwich and Newcastle all being relegated - but Villa would have had an even worse season, finishing with 13 points instead of 17 and a -55 goal difference.
