Premier League Games | 13/14/15 December '25

Nothing like scoring a winner at the death to breed confidence, even when its a game you should have had sewn up before halftime. There are always games like that in title wins, dippers lived off that last year. Regardless of how poor they may have been It's still 3 points and now we've got a very tricky game to respond, we have to maintain that 1 game in it gap to build the pressure, if we constantly let them off the hook they'll have no pressure to cave in to.

Just seems unsustainable, I think he's running key players into the ground, Rice looks like he's gone into the the last 3 league games tired.

Last 6 league games have been poor, think only Spurs looked good and that's a derby, so the energy should always be there for that.

We'll know more after Everton (A) next week, Saturday night 8pm, where it just looks like you'll drop points playing as you are.

I don't think we've been particularly amazing in any game this season tbh which is why I couldn't work out why people were saying Arsenal would win the league by 15 points. But we do have depth in the squad. Let's see, long way to go, not brilliant tonight but still nicked a win.

Yea we've struggled and had tired and injured players. We've gone from nearly always winning 50-50s to be about 50-50 in them. 1 weeks rest will be big for us IMO

I would like to ask your fanbase if Pep rests players way more than Arteta though. As even with a big squad he really doesn't rest players enough

Some difficult games there for Arse

Tonight proves that any PL game can be a difficult one tbh. We weren't at it in the 1st half. 2nd half the goal felt inevitable and then when it came it seemed like we thought it's only Wolves, they won't score and we just retreated. We were lucky Wolves tried to win it - that created space for Saka to get the ball in and the winner to come.

This season has been a bit a different because our squad lacks the quality of years gone by.

I think Pep has played a consistent team the most this season over any other season in his management career.

He doesn't truly trust the "others", however he has reluctantly changed it up when needed.

That cost us against Villa away in my opinion and Leverkusen at home.

The biggest concerns for us would be Doku and Nico G.

Those two cannot carry on playing the amount of football they currently have been paying going forward in the second half of the season.

If one of those two gets a prolonged injury I think that's us cooked.
