Tottenham seems like a mess right now. Ange talking about changing coaches on his staff that don’t buy into his philosophy. No reason not to win out

Need top 4 to be out of reach when we play them. Their fans attitude towards the game might seep into the players if they have nothing to play for.
 
Wolves on the beach already

We’ve had a full week off and have a full week to rest and recuperate before Fulham

Perfect storm for a hatful of goals

Imagine the outrage if we win 9-0

They didn't win there last season.

Like when most people thought the dippers would turn the rags over and couldn't do it in both league games or the cup.

That game is no walk in the park for Arsenal in my opinion. The rags do seem to grind out a decent/surprising result sometimes, even when they play shite, which is pretty much every game.

As much some of our fans think the spurs away game could be a banana skin, I think that rags game for Arsenal is too.
 
Expect arsenal to drop points now at Old Trafford
If they go behind (if PGMOL allow it) I see panic
Let’s win the next two

Lot players at wolves are in the shop window they are not on the beach this will be hard game! When teams come to Man City the manager and the players want to show how good they are and cause an upset

I’m torn. If they decide they want to lose it they will go all #spursy and bloody win by accident!

They've played 2 more games than us ,let's see how we do today first and goal difference is very unlikely to come into it.

Yes, but for GD to come into it implies that we draw one of our two games in hand, meaning we need to make the entire GD gap up across just three games, and Arsenal would have to win those games for it to matter.

Given on average Arsenal win by a two goal margin, that means we need to make up about 19 goals before the end of the season.

In a nutshell, we'd need to beat Wolves, West Ham and Fulham something like 6-0, 6-0 and 7-0.

Like I say... we have to win every game.

A good effort to be fair but 6 GD deficit and two games to make it up is a hell of a lot given Arsenal could easily knock a hatful past Everton on the final day.

Think that was our last chance to afford ourselves a draw v Spurs.

If we happen to beat Fulham something like 6-0 and Arsenal only manage to beat United by a single goal then there's still a small chance. Odds on that are pretty minimal, though, Fulham are very tough.

We should just concentrate on beating Fulham.

If Arsenal beat United by one goal and Everton by 3 goals, then we'll need to make up 10 goals over 2 games (provided the 3rd game, say Spurs, is a draw). Is that impossible? It's not completely impossible (remember Arsenal won 6:0 at W Ham), but it's extremely difficult. We can do it by beating Fulham 5:1 and W Ham 6:0 and win the title with more goals than Arsenal.

I think we won't chase GD at Fulham, though. Our only aim will be the 3 pts, unless we are 4 goals up with 20 minutes to go.
