Will we win the league this season? No

[youngbob]

Hoped Arsenal would drop points this week. Expected these exact results but in the opposite games.

Wolves 1-3 Arsenal
Spurs 2-2 Arsenal

That was more what I expected.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

We hoped but realistically Spursy are Spursy, 2 points dropped from Spursy & Wolves games was as much as we could hope for.....and it's now in our hands.

Those dropped points throughout the season are so frustrating.

Didn’t beat Spurs once.

Mind you, Arsenal can say the same RE dropped points.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

Just a blip.

 

[Goodlove]

Or blowing a lead against Chelsea in the 94th minute.......

Or limply blowing a 1-0 lead at home against Brighton and only coming away with a point.

It's currently in our hands. But likewise, if we don't win it, there are games we can look back on and only blame ourselves.

Totally agree. If we add in the emirates game too we should be clear of this shower. They aren’t relentless, they aren’t unbeatable but we do need to be flawless between now and may

Wasn't expecting spurs to get anything, but hoped for a close game. Probs won't come down to goal difference but dont want them getting any confidence.

Impossible to judge after that.
Never.seen such a poor performance from Spurs.
They can fuck off now into the championship

I think we need a witch doctor.

Because realistically Spurs could be in 5th division and they'd still beat us.

 

[MCFC1993]

Today was more Spurs bad than Arsenal good. I think the fact they've beat them 4-1 twice shows it's a good match up.

We have 3 winnable games, beat Leeds, Forest and West Ham and the gap will be smaller.

I don't see Arsenal beating Chelsea (H) and Brighton (A).

The good thing is, we don't have to rely on anyone else, so there's no pressure, we just have to do our job.

Even during the 1st half I didn’t expect Spurs to win. Turned the TV off at half-time. Glad I did.

Unfortunately - despite how shite, insipid and spineless the chunts were today - I still expect one of Forest or West Ham to finish below them (the other 2 spots are already taken)

 

[jrb]

Way said then done. Win all our remaining games and we are champions.

 

[willipp]

Thought Arsenal were very good today against a dogshit spurs side who we somehow managed to take only one point off this season.

If we do lose the league by fine margins we only have ourselves to blame.

 

[youngbob]

Didn't expect Arsenal to drop points in either the Wolves or Spurs game. Two points dropped is a bonus.

 

[Shazza458]

I’d have bitten your hand off if you said we’d be in this position this time last week.

Long way to go, Leeds feels like a massive game and then we have to navigate March.

Can’t afford to think too far into the future

 

[Marvin.]

Spurs have 11 players out injured. It was unlikely that they would be able to avoid defeat in a NLD.

 

[chris85mcfc]

Just enjoy it lads

I'd settle for 6 points from March as it stands.

I reckon there’ll be more from both teams n’all. Both of us are inconsistent for top sides and are only on course for around 80 points.

Away from home this season, we’re dropping an average of almost 1.4 points per game. And we have 6 away games left from our remaining 11 games.

I think this could be the twistiest turniest title race we’ve ever been in.

In a few others, we’ve been used to us and sometimes also our rivals just winning game after game after game to the end in incredible feats of sporting excellence. I think this will be different and can see both teams drawing another 3 and losing another 2 each before the end.

 

[Claytop]

Arsenal aren’t going to suddenly drop points in every game so people should probably step back from the ledge everytime they play…

We’ve been here before, title race run ins aren’t for the faint hearted!
