While it's great seeing them wobble and looking distraught they really need to man up. They are still five points ahead meaning the pressure is all on us to win those games in hand. The pivotal game is Wednesday. If they draw or win that I expect it to galvanise them to win the title. On the other hand if they lose I think they will collapse. Let's hope it's the latter.
 
It’s all positive on Sky Sports. Captain Black claiming the comeback to draw against the worst team in the league proves they aren’t bottlers.
Next we’ll be hearing about how Arsenal extended their lead at the top.

They need to beat us. A draw won’t be enough for them.

A draw on Wednesday is a better result for us. It means the title will be out of their hands.
 
Jesus has the highest XG underperformance in the league. 9 goals from an expected 13.

It was evident when he was with us but somehow overlooked when he moved. Never been a killer in front of goal and it could come back to bite them.

It says a lot that Pep didn’t like to rely on him up front in title run-ins unless he absolutely had to.
 
Well, if they have to win they shouldn't be time wasting like they have been every game they've played so far. I can't remember seeing a team where so many players throw themselves to the ground, writhing in agony, only to get up fit as fiddles ten seconds later. Other teams do it a fair bit, yes (including us), but it seems like Captain Scarlet has made it a part of their tactics. It's pretty low when you've got players feigning head injuries just to slow the game down.

I'd like someone to call them out on this.
