Arsenal - pre match thread.

Ironic that if we did believe then West Ham imploding would be great news for us. Had Norwich held out at 0-0 we could get top 4 tomorrow with a win.

As it is even when things go right for us they have big down sides (like inspiring United on Tuesday and showing that Swansea are playing out of their skins just as we have to go and play there and possibly need a win).

It is not suicidal fans - it is fate that has conspired all season to kick us whilst we are down.

Perhaps we are due some one last twist of fortune in our favour.

And despite doing our best to kill off our own season it is still amazingly somehow in our own hands to finish 3rd.

So if we can inspire the team with a massive crowd performance from the off we could get this sorted.

The starting 11 if correctly picked will beat Arsenal. So that means no Delph, Yaya, Demi or Bony

Don't be surprised if he does start three of the four of those. I honestly believe tomorrow will be his ultimate "Fuck you for sacking me" send off.

Those three words 'if correctly picked' sum it up.

If he picks the team to win the match and has no dash of sentiment to give players their last ever match at the Etihad. Then okay.

We just lack confidence he will actually do that.
 
anything less than a win tomorrow and top 4 finish is out of our hands......cant believe we in this position....its almost a cup final against Arsenal after the rags won today.....
 
Looks like Europa League next season for us.
Thrown away games, lethargy and mercenary effort. Disgusts me.

Though a win tomorrow means two out of the three results on Tuesday see us Top 4 without playing Swansea.

West Ham cannot catch us even if we just get a draw. So we can only finish 5th and go straight into the Europa groups if we do that.

But to keep control on the basis United could win Tuesday we HAVE to win.

Had we got a draw at Southampton last week we could have avoided that even with a draw tomorrow. Because we chucked the match we lost that luxury.

Winning at Swansea seems far harder than it did 7 days ago given their performances since assuring safety!

But win tomorrow and there is a 67% chance we will not need to win at Swansea.

So win v Arsenal it simply has to be. No ifs or buts. Roar them on from the get go.

Not a cat in bells chance that three of them will start. One possibly at best otherwise I will begin to think that football is more fixed the WWE
