Will we win the league this season? No

[Eric Hitchmough]

No

 

[Haaland94]

17 points dropped from winning positions. That's where the title was lost. Not today.

January did us in which I think most of us knew, but didn't want to come to terms with. Shame this is how it ended.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Damage was done way before tonight. Fuck 'em.

Our last hope is a picture of an Arsenal scout hidden in one of the Etihad campus trees coming out in the next 3 days

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Point away at a side that will finish 6th is not a bad result. Not where we lost it.

Just a step too far. 2 cups, 2nd place, moving on.

Oh, and congrats to the 1% of Arsenal fans who aren't complete bellends. Enjoy it while you can.

5 gained from a losing position as well are the reasons why we didn’t do it.

Still a very good season though with 2 cups, 2nd and CL football again.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

I'm going to admit now that it's looking less likely.

Ultimately draws cost us. We weren’t ruthless enough in-front of of goal. We defended poorly. We lost or drew too many games in the 2nd half after being in-front at half-time.

The poor draws.

Spurs 2-2
Forest 2-2
West Ham 1-1
Everton 3-3
Bournemouth 1-1

Bar Bournemouth, we conceded 8 goals against poor and average teams.

The pundits did say we would slip up at Everton and at Bournemouth. They were right.

 

[OldhamBlue94]

PGMOL still exists so yep. No title

 

[Bluearmy]

Arsenal deserved it.

We did very well to hang in there. Just too many missed opportunities. That early January period haunts me.

Yeah those thrown away points at home around that time were criminal

 

[jaiguruKun]

It was someone else's turn. Just a shame it had to be them.

 

[Sibierskii]

 

[pendlebury blue]

That performance summed up our season
Keep the faith

I'll be copying that, thank you.

 

[madloaf]

Why is everyone flapping...everyone knows the season doesn't start til...

Rather them than the scousers or the other lot.

 

[NptonBlue89!]

17 points dropped from winning positions. That's where the title was lost. Not today.

And I think near top of least points gained from losing positions so not great either way and still finished second and two cups! West Ham forest everton and spurs were the games that for me killed us this year 3 needless draws

 

[skillman]

Everton away
Forest at home
Bournemouth away (to an extent)
Brighton away (to an extent)
Chelsea at home
Brighton at home
Spurs away
Spurs at home
Sunderland away
West Ham away
Rags away

Probably loads more but that Everton game was the one. The league went that night.

 

[Ivan Lentil]

If you take it to the last week of the season and fall just short there's no shame in that especially given the number of new signings and young players in the team and the relative lack of quality of some of our 2nd eleven

Might be our last title challenge for quite a while if the Pep rumours are true,
