Not to be.
shame, mainly a shame for Pep.
Been an amazing journey.

Enjoy Sunday blues.

I worry for next season. If they're not motivated with the league on the line after the Pep news, when will they be. Very soft team

 

[eversince 76]

Too little too late. Subs no influence at all. Could’ve been worse tonight. Think we weren’t champions material over the entire season.

 

[waspish]

Well no last game nervy game be a celebration

 

[pbueno16]

Gave ourselves way too much to do before the run in, really, but it's not nice to have dragged ourselves back in and done the hard parts but fizzled out in a couple of tricky but winnable away games.

The results in January were ultimately our undoing. Everton and this game may have sealed it, but my expectations dropped in January.

 

[Beanhead]

Arsenal bottle guy not looking jovial now.

 

[Bluearmy]

Not really. We took our midfield off.

We needed to change it but to vacate midfield and leave a half fit Rodri on his own was a bizarre decision

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Fuck off Noel Gallagher you fair weather ****

He’s at the match, where are you dickhead

 

[Wanchope n me Dickov]

What a shite week. Pep leaving and now this dross. At least I don't need to get up and watch the final game in the middle of the night.

 

[Eaststander1]

Noel making for the exit.

You can't blame him ..... he won't be on his own either.

 

[madloaf]

On the plus side my ‘streams’ just froze.

Nope. We're just attacking.

 

[johnny crossan]

6 mins to Armageddon

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Fuck me, they could have had 3/4 tonight

 

[super_city_si]

Maybe playing Tuesday after a cup final is a detriment

 

[City_Sean]

Disappointing to end in such a whimper. We look lethargic and worrying we lack any real quality in the final third.

Big, big summer ahead of us.

 

[Gogootz]

Destiny is all

 

[Dazzle84]

Fuck off Noel Gallagher you fair weather ****

Are you there?

 

[paulchapo]

Exactly this, we've done well to pull it back to the last few games of the season.

It shows what a piss poor league it's been this season, even the league leaders have been average and had very little competition, and they nearly blew it.

In truth our performances haven't merited us winning it. Arsenal haven't been great either but they've shown the grit and dogged determination to get it over the line. That's down to the hunger of not winning it for years. Sadly we've become what Pep called us a couple of years ago, a happy flowers team. Capable of turning it on in big games but not prepared to dig in and scrap in the more mainstream ones, hence the disappointing draws.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Look on the bright side, we won't have to see that shite kit ever again

I'm sure Puma will have another lined up next season.

 

[BluestBlue]

If we had won the PL this season it would have been daylight robbery, we simply aren't good enough.

The lowest the standards have ever been this season.
