Will we win the league this season? No

I have Man City as clear favourites to win the league but if we can win against Fulham( which will be very difficult Fulham on form)in the weekend then the pressure will be on city 6 points behind even with 2 games on hand will have a mental effect on city.

I expect arsenal to go six points clear on Saturday and then it’s crunch time for City at Everton, can see that being a draw then City beating Brentford on Saturday. Arsenal then have a crunch game against West Ham.
Bournemouth away is another big banana skin especially only a few days after the fa cup final, Villa at home won’t be a walk in the park either.

I think Arsenal are favourites, they could go to Palace with them also having a European final to balance. Arsenal won’t leave London for the May run in, that could be a real factor, also only West Ham will be super motivated.

Nope all the fans have city as favourites and already saying Arsenal bottled it …..you can say whatever you want but the reality is you have pep and you got way more experience closing out the league then us…..Fulham could be a draw after tough game against athelti which will make you even more favs

It could get nervy for you if we beat Fulham

It might or might not... Even sports psychologists can't be sure about that.

Anyway, half the players were here when we had to win 9 in a row to win the 4 in a row. Plus players like Donnarumma and Guehi, who are experienced enough or Cherki who isn't the most nervous player... Let's see what happens.

No chance. City virtually always win the pressure matches. Pep loves pressure. He thrives on it. It’s the lower key games that we sometimes fluff. Usually when Pep tries one of his experiments!
 
Well we are certainly not going to get any common-sense from the Premier League, who either want revenge for their failure to press the 115/30 charges, or their Board has more Arsenal fans than City.

You underestimate what it takes to have a "mental effect" on a Pep title chasing squad during the run in , going points behind with games in hand isn't going to , your bunch of pansies on the other hand would be having a absolute headloss both fans and players.

I’m not one of those fans, if you want proper dialogue avoid sweeping generalisations.

That’s exactly my point that’s why I put you guys as clear favourites our only hope now is be 6 points ahead before you play Everton and see what happens but going of the past you guys always see it through when it matters in the last games of season.

Fairs….We do have a physiological mountain to climb we never won the dam thing for 23 years the first time in that long brings anther element which goes against us.How much pressure was you guys on when you won the title after 44 years against qpr ? We have so many things going against us now I can speak for majority of Arsenal fans that we are on a emotional rollercoaster where as you guys you seem to have control of your nerves and tint of arrogance rightly so you been winning a lot these past years.

You will have had 9 whole days before you play Everton in that time we would have played 2 intense games you can’t tell me that not an advantage for your team….before our game against Bournemouth we had a energy sapping game against sporting 3 days before we are tired for a reason the last thing you can complain about is fixture congestion just look at what we are going through.

Who's complaining, you're the one who came on here giving it out talking shite.

A 9 day break at this stage of the season with games to play is no use to anyone, especially us.

Monday night ruins possible dates for next week.

Social media is awash with fuckwits who probably never go to games but have an opinion on this with all the usual reasons about City, money and squad etc.

Fact is, these games of ours and yours, are not postponed games, abandoned games etc which was generally the reason for these situations in the past.

These are all games that can not be accommodated because of the ludicrous calendar, the empasis on TV being allowed to decide who can play when and so on.

What would have happened if you stayed in the Cup and we got through in the CL? The end of season would be a complete fucking farce, it's not much better now tbh.

Equally, it's not just about player welfare and diluting the qaility, what about the match going fans.

We spend a fortune on Season Tickets, get pissed about with 3 Wembley trips in 2 months (us not you). The authorities think it's perfectly acceptable for Clubs to go a full month without a home game, then have 3 crammed in on the spin. Midweek games galore which can be difficult for many working fans.

Football fans are being taken for mugs.

Based on data, Cherki and Doku are two of the most creative players in the league (especially from open play) per 90. It's pointless to compare them to David or KDB since they are still young and several years before their prime.

Our record with both Cherki and Doku starting has been fantastic: 7 wins in the league and one (controversial) loss at Newcastle in November, i.e., 2,57 ppg.

In all compets: 11 wins and 2 losses (Newcastle and Real at home).

Exactly my point.
 
Odds are now 50/50, both City and arsenal 2.0 on Betfair, depending on what day you look. This is what i expected it to be previously but folk backed us in to about 8/11.

I rather not have the 2games in hand over Arsenal at this stage of the Season.because of the handfuls of Games we’re got coming up plus the FA cup
