Will we win the league this season?

[johnnytapia]

I still believe Arsenal and Liverpool will be too strong. Just looking at the bench of both teams it’s full of quality and options. We’re not out of it but we’re gonna have to be really lucky with injuries to sustain a title challenge.

I looked at our bench yesterday: Marmoush, Bernardo, Kovatic, Cherki and thought the same

 

[Axel Freed]

No. I don’t think they are. Have said for a while if they give Amorim time he will turn them. They played ok today albeit Pool were pretty poor.

I’ve feared this for a while. Chuck huge amounts of money at something for long enough and, law of averages, sooner or later there’ll be some real progress especially if they keep nicking guys who’ve contributed in some part to our success

 

[Danny Tiatto]

Don’t let Arsenal get out of sight before the new year and we’ll do it.

Hard to believe pool were top, 5 points ahead of us 3 games ago - now we’re a point above them in second, I’m starting to think we can do this!

It is hard to believe as it is incorrect.

And to quote myself - forgot to mention the current form of our iron man har, err haa, Håland!

Haha could be right, it’s late, we won 3 they lost 3 - we were definitely behind at one point

Who has lumped on 7/2, or is it all just talk? Thought so.

You’ve indicated you’ve answered your own question without identifying what the actual answer was.

Let’s not too giddy. Before United won this evening we hadn’t won against a team in the top half of the league. We are still very much a work in progress.

Everton were well in top half until we beat them. As the commentators kept prattling on every 2 mins they would have gone ahead of us if they had won.

Making predictions in October about the title winners is great for bookies. The end of January is when you can begin to see who the main protagonists will be. Arsenal, us and the murderers will be top 3

“ He's been here long enough to learn how to spell his surname fucking correctly”

I’m sure he has.
(PS, people in grammatical glass houses…)

Why did you quote an old post twice, you thick ****?

I thought Arsenal had already won it the way they were celebrating yesterday.

 

[reddishblue]

Yes. Next question.

 

[Yue Wollongong]

I think Arsenal will have a serious go this season. But it all depends on injury situation if Saka and their two center backs plus Raya don't encounter a major injury. they have a good chance. they are starting to believe themselves in the recent years. City is still mentally fragile and could collapse as the team is still gelling up. as someone mentioned above, I think if City is still with in a couple of matches with Arsenal in Feb and two out of Rodri Kovacic and Nico are healthy all season long, City would have a better chance.

 

[Ysabel 123]

We are second, but every player, fan Pep all know its not good enough. This Arsenal could only nick a last minute equalizer of us despite them having 2 days rest on us! We switched off at Brighton! and have the best goal difference!

We also have Rodri, Cherki, Marmoush, Kussanov, Stones & Ait Nori injured/not fit!

It great how everyone has dismissed us because 'its Arsenals time' Arsenal fans are buzzing because Sky Bet have made them favs!

Long way to go yet!

 

[Ysabel 123]

They could well turn out to be a 'surprise package' , if they continue to show the same spirit that they did today at Liverpool ...... they actually have one or two decent players, and a bit of strength in depth now.

But with around 30 league games still left to play, it's far too early to even try to predict who the eventual title winners will be, and I'm sure that City will fancy their own chances, but Pep is right to be concerned ... we need MORE players than Haaland scoring goals!

They will be out on the piss tonight because they beat the only other Premier League team that dosent have a screen in their shit hole stadium!

It's like when we wasn't arsed about the league as long as we beat united! That's how low they have sunk!

 

[Ysabel 123]

Agree We are by no means out of it but do think it’s gonna take a Herculean effort, we can do it

Bit dramatic mate! we went top of the league without playing well, or wasting one bit of emotional energy!

It will be Herculean if Arsenal manage to chill out and stop acting like Kevin Keegan on acid!

 

[pfs87]

Underestimate us at your peril

 

[Phil1]

We are well placed after being written off by all and sundry.. I haven’t gone into a season not thinking we are capable of winning it for over 10 years.
This season is no different.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

There was always a chance, but you have to think now that we’re in with a Real shout.

I think it’ll be down to how lucky we get with injuries
