Premier League Games 4/5/6 March '23

Shame about that arsenal result, but at least we increased our goal difference lead over them by another one.
And it’s always a pleasure to discover that spurs lost :-)

Looking at their run despite the fact they will start favourites in almost all of them its a difficult run in.

They could well be playing teams that have survival on the line in every game and sides who have a lot to play for at the other end of the table.

Can see them dropping as many points as they have to date.

At least Spurs lost which is always funny

The icing on the cake

 

[yankblue]

They are utter crap until they play us at the Lane, or should that be they are still crap but we are crapper?

Truly one of life's greatest mysteries

There are really no easy games. I thought City looked more like themselves today…encouraging for you.

The 6 minutes was a combination of injuries, substitutions and time wasting. The extra minute in injury time was for a Bournemouth injury.

Pretty sure a ref once told me that added time in added time shouldn’t be added on. If there are six extra minutes to play then even if there was a delay in injury time it’s still six minutes to play.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Sorry bu I completely disagree - it aint some conspiracy to stop us winning the league....Bournmouth could have scored a breakaway in that time for instance.....weve seen that happen as well

If Bournemouth had been anywhere close to threatening the Arsenal goal in the 53 seconds played post Arsenal goal he's have blown in an instant.

A ref, being incorrect? Incredible. There's a reason they say minimum of x minutes

 

[Jack Hackett]

The ref. gave more than 8 mins. Do the math. It's called cheating.

Goal scored 90+7

Tbf they were fuckin robbed with the Brentford goal. If ever the powers that be wanted them to win a game it certainly wasn't that one.

Do you remember the disallowed goal for Toney in that game, the slightest of touch that was never an infringement of the rules but VAR deemed it legal even though Arsenal didn’t appear for it.

 

[adr2.8i]

Didn't see the game, can't comment on the extra time either but fair fucks to the arse. Anytime you come from 2 zip down and win is a great result and the arse are a different side these days compared to previous seasons.....they haven't crumbled.....yet :-) certainly stayed longer in the title race than I thought they would.

 

[mancityscot]

Dont let the result get to you chaps!

 

[hammocity]

It's not a conspiracy, they've been better than us all season.

Just stop watching them if you can't handle them winning.

Strange that since we’ve beaten them twice already.

 

[chaddblue]

April / Early May is make or break for Arsenal

A 7 game run where they're only at home for three of them and have to play Liverpool, us, Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton

If they're still top after that they're winning it

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Scraping an injury time win against relegation fodder , or comfortably beating an excellent team who have only lost to one club all season , you can see the headlines tomorrow :
ARSENAL MENTALITY MONSTERS
Its the hope that will kill them , but would rather have the Goons in a title race than the deluded Dippers or Rags.

 

[daztrueblue91]

Arsenal are a fantastic side and I fully expected them to beat Bournemouth who are shite.

The fact they keep getting late winners is a real championship winning mentality. I thought they would have crumbled by now if I’m being honest. The late Villa win after we beat them was a massive result for them and has given them a second wind almost.

Some will say 3 points is all that matters but their performances are dropping. Their only real convincing win in the league since January has been against Everton. Teams are starting to get at them and you cannot keep relying on late goals for victories.

This is coinciding with us starting to play our best football of the season. We’ve barely strung 3 consecutive wins together all season and we’re used to going on extended winning runs.

It’s just my gut feeling but we might be hitting peak form at just the right time. Under Pep we usually peak between Dec/Feb which results in an extended winning run. If we can hit that form now, we will win the league.

 

[york away to this!]

The arse are like my back up insurance policy this season, just in case we don't win it...

 

[Deleted member 81382]

They scraped a win at Leeds, last min v Fulham, added time v Villa, added time today, 15 points from losing positions

We did exactly the same in 2017/18 against Bournemouth, Huddersfield, Southampton and West Ham, three of which were in consecutive games.

 

[bluedaze]

On a positive note we added another goal to our superior goal difference.

Football is eating itself, the more the Prem and pigmol do this the more fans will see how bent the premier league is . The Premier league will damage its own product very soon .
