The Title Race 2022/23

There’s a gooner at work who has been confident all season. I said we’d hunt them down and he said no you won’t. Even 4 days ago I said told you so and fair play he stuck to his guns. Maybe not now eh

Did you get him to commit to a bet?

Thanks for that and much appreciated.

Congratulations, Mancs, on another title. I was at the Emirates today and Brighton did a number on us but frankly, I thought they were the better side. We looked jaded and kind of proved my point in countless posts on here from early in the season when I knew we didn’t have the strength of depth to cover injuries to key players. Anyway, no excuses, you have the strongest squad in the league so no surprise. I hope you win the treble by the way and if not, at least squash Man U at Wembley.

Enjoy your summer and for me it’s cricket time now. Hoping Kent can surprise me and do something (unlikely) and more importantly, we win the Ashes!

See you in August.

Can't believe how lethargic Arsenal were considering they had a full weeks rest.

I genuinely believe our result vs Everton earlier mentally did it for them. I think a lot of them knew it was over and gave up. They'll never admit it in public but when your mentally gone it's really difficult to pick yourself up physically and it showed. Brighton could sense that and took full advantage.

BTW what's up with Ben White? It looks like he's dipped himself in Ronseal during his days off

Well done City. It is what it is, I hope you go onto win the treble now that we cant win the league. I have no animosity towards you lot and prefer you over Utd/Liverpool/Chelsea etc

Big up Arsenal. You nearly took it to the wire. Good luck next season.

Surely there won’t be pitch invasions Sunday!

Depends if the telly tubbies feel the need to run around squealing like demented toddlers or not. Nobody with any respect for the club will do it.

Everyone knows that the last thing the club needs is to be rubbished in the media for failing to control it’s supporters, to have a run in with the PL, to suffer a fine or even a points deduction.
And there’s no need for it anyhow, it’s childish.

 

[Pam]

An unlikely might still happen, but the slog is done. Must be a huge lift before Wednesday.

And we rested important players.

 

[East Level 2]

We've scored more goals than Arsenal (and anybody else) and have conceded fewer. We've lost four PL games, all by one goal, yet they've lost by two or three several times.
We might not be as successful as the Centurions side, but we're still bloody good.

Im going to try when I see him in the office on Tuesday

 

[AshtonBlueMooner]

Reckon we’ll have it won before we take to the pitch. 1-1 draw for Arsenal at Forest and its done and dusted. In which case, it’ll be full on party time on Sunday.

 

[Worsleyweb]

This is the most enjoyable time I have ever experienced following City. We are truly blessed to be witnessing this.

Battered again on xG today. So much for xG.

Useless stat

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Your analysis is of course, correct

It hardly makes me Nostradamus.

Saw that on MOTD and assumed it was incorrect?

It'll be pathetic if there is, winning the league is nothing new to us anymore.

Tickets for Arsenal's final day of the season clash with Wolves are being sold for as much as €50,000 (£44,000), with Gunners fans clamouring to be at a potentially historic day in the club's history.
Arsenal currently sit atop of the Premier League table, eight points clear of nearest rivals Manchester City, and within touching distance of their first league title since 2004 - when they went the whole campaign unbeaten.
The Gunners have around 40,000 season ticket holders, leaving just over 20,000 tickets for the reported 40,000 silver members - who pay £54 per year to have second option on tickets for games - to attempt to snap up.

Arsenal v Wolves

As expected tickets for the final day of the season meeting with Wolves, and potential lifting of the Premier League trophy, were snapped up quickly.

Sadly for a large number of Arsenal fans, however, a copious amount of tickets seem to have been bought by 'ticket touts' who are now reselling them for astronomical prices.

Tickets for nose bleed seats in the upper tier are currently on sale on Stubhub for around €28,000.

Fucking funny as fuck

Fuck me!
Anyone want to buy a ticket for the Chelsea game? ; )

We only had 3 shots on target, and one of them was about a 1 in 100! But it took me ages to work out all Everton's chances!

We had 4 in the stats, a long shot form Rodders before the first goal.

Our win at the Emirates was the moment for me. The only Arsenal fan I know was so confident the title was theirs before that game. But after that I could see his confidence had gone

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Anyone who knows my posts on here over the years will know I’m zinchenko’s biggest fan. Absolutely adore the guy. Love his attitude.

I also played American football at a pretty decent level (and even did a threepeat myself) and went on to coaching so I know a good bit about sports psychology.

I honestly think Zinchenko and Jesus(and arteta even) probably cost arsenal the title here and it was always going to pan out like this.

I can imagine early in the season, the fresh voices constantly saying “this is how we did it at city” and it adding gravitas to their locker rooms. Heck I said it when we let them leave we may regret selling a winning attitude to them.

But fast forward and a pendulum swings.

City are hunting them and every single time they are near zinchenko or Jesus they are now ominously saying “this is how we did it at city” in a completely different context. It must have added so much dread to every single incident and game.

A weight that haunted them each and every time.

And here we now are.
