Will we win the league this season? No

We scored more legal goals than both Newcastle and Spurs and came away with 2 points.
Arsenal scored the same number of legal goals as West Ham and came away with 3 points.
How much more do you want from our players?

We can't keep pinning everything on the referees when we've put ourselves in these situations. Newcastle, fair enough, there's a debate there. But against Spurs, we were 2-0 up and completely lost control of the game. Whether the Guehi incident was a foul or not, we sat off, stopped playing, and allowed Spurs to dominate.

It's been the same story in other games too. We created enough chances against Brighton, Forest, Chelsea, Everton and Spurs, but didn't take them. If we'd been clinical in front of goal, the refereeing decisions wouldn't even be part of the conversation.
The refs didn't make Guehi give the ball away against Everton, and they didn't cause the defence to switch off for the goals against Chelsea and Spurs. At some point, the players have to take responsibility for the points we've thrown away ourselves.
 
If palace werent in a final 3 days after the final game or were gonna get 10 mil if arsenal win the league id be a bit more confident but i can't see them or Burnley getting anything. Hopefully i am very wrong and both teams go out and fight. All we can do is win our games and if it's not enough we will be back next year to bury them

One thing is for sure next season, Arsenal won’t be getting away with constant fouling at corners and set pieces leading to goals. I fully expect the PL and PGMOL to clamp down on it next season.

I'd hope the same but we all know it'll last till Christmas and then ease up
 
Chancers are slim but I'll always believe.

Arsenal likely win out. Can't see them dropping at Burnley. If they do drop it'll be Palace final day I think. Selhurst Park...some final day scaries. Just not sure what sort of team Palace will trot out.

Palace should be a walk in the park for us. Good chance to rotate. FA cup will be tricky. Will need to be on it for that. Chelsea a lot better than people think.

Bournemouth the hardest PL game left and it's not close. Hopefully Rodders is fit. Villa are shite.

Not only will not clamp down.. it'll be encouraged to be even more brazen especially vs City.

Can't win 115, can win VAR!
