Will we win the league this season? No

Lets just win our games and see

It's certainly hard to see Arsenal losing their games but this is football, you never know. Football throws up odd results.

We always say teams are already on the beach if they have nothing to play for in the league but that's not always true. Plenty have put in a good performance.

Lets not forget a fairly aimless Villa came close to scuppering our title hopes on the final day if not for a miraculous comeback. It can happen. On another day we may not have found those goals.

If it goes to the last day and we are leading, top on GD and Arsenal are 0-0 at selhurst park at 70 mins...then what?



I have a feeling someone will drop points. Could well be us.

Arsenal will score from a corner despite 3 Palace players being held by Arsenl players

I'd guess 115 million, but the Eze 10 million is alleged to have been in the contract when they signed him.

Do they not have a clause for Guehi if we win it, and if they do could they not add to it for finishing higher in the table if they beat arse.

That might add up to more of a financial incentive than their eze one.

I maybe clutching at straws though.

That dubious goal for everton has done for us, the fact he was offside meant he was close enough to get to that backpass, a definite advantage gained imo, but when every rule is so ambiguous its easy to manipulate.

And have the fewest goals scored by subs because Pep makes changes far too late. - On the other hand we often struggle when he makes early changes. Difficult decisions.

I don't know if it's my imagination but we seemed to ship a lot of late goals last season after making substitutions, this season too. I know it's needs must sometimes but in earlier (more successful) seasons he would often stick with the same players for the full match.

Stats would be interesting to see on this subject.

True, but Bournemouth have drawn 8 of them. They're 22 points behind us for a reason. Some Palace players will be playing for their place in the final and the club won't want to see a local rival lift the trophy on their patch. Look for the positives!

Looking at the table Bournemouth if they win there last two games have a good chance of being in champion league next season if Villa lose to us and Liverpool. We can do it but hoping for a lot of luck

Why would I be ?

It's only been done once, by chelsea.

If we manage two treble's in the same season it would be pretty unique, I don't care how many things we win, with how many teams, it's City.

Apologises. I might have misread your initial post. I thought you were classing city women's team winning something and classing it as us winning a treble
 
Just an arsenal goal from a corner disallowed for a foul in the box at Selhursrt Park.

Come on Satan I don't ask you for much

I hear all these London derbies. Is there really such a thing? Spuds-Arses maybe aside, they all seem happy enough to spoon when they play each other.

The NLD is the biggest myth of the lot. The last few seasons Spurs have been a guaranteed 6 points for Arsenal and have completed their piss taking by actually stepping up in the matches against us.

Embarrassment of a football club that with any justice will find them themselves in the championship next season
 
Palace v Liverpool a few years ago was glorious for us.
Palace at home imho is far more intimidating than Bournemouth, imho.
Bournemouth suspended Jiminez, their full back, last week for disciplinary reasons and had Ryan Christy sent off in their last match, so that's 2 1st-teamers out. Kluivert came back in the last match at Fulham, but he's been out for 5 months so can't be up to speed yet.
We won comfortably there last season - even though it was a close score-line at 2-1 for us - and they definitely aren't a better team 12 months on.
Fingers crossed, hey?!

I thought we lost there last season at the start of our horror run?
