it feels like arsenal are more afraid of the "bottle job" tag than actually wanting to actually win it, ive never like arsenal fans*online", they are fucking wank as fans, wouldnt surprise me if the fans turn on the team if things arent going well at home, heaping more pressure on their flakey team, think they are at tipping point for a massive collapse , if they get beat off spurs and dont start well chelsea the fans heads will go and the team will crumble, we need a good result v newcastle on saturday to heap the pressure on them, fucking great init

Just had a chat with my Dad on the phone and he said much the same. If they struggle to score or go a goal down next home game and the anger and the fear will just become a tsunami of anger from the stands and I don't think any of them have the bottle for the job

And then even if they do manage to turn it around during the match they won’t be able to hide the relief and will celebrate like they have won the World Cup.

Arsenal are just far too emotional to handle a tight title race

I would hate to see any City side playing like Arsenal do. I don't believe we ever have. Of course we have had the occasional diving players but it has never been orchestrated as a team tactical plan.

Correct. We do have players who play act and go over like twats but it 100% isn't orchestrated. I'm not even sure Arsenal need to do it but it's how they're being coached.

Need to be careful what we wish for here. We're just as flaky as them at the minute, make no mistake about it.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if we drew/lost to the Geordies this weekend.

Edit. Wolves result is still funny as fuck for now thou!

Yep.

We have never seen any club stoop to the levels Arsenal have shown. Worse than some Italian teams in the 70s and Revie's Leeds. Cheating by feigning injury, diving, time wasting at every opportunity, fouling and obstructing at set pieces, leaving the field for time-outs. What the fuck are the PL and PGMOL doing? Arsenal are a stain on the game. Surely some Arsenal fans are ashamed after having lived through the Wenger era.

You don't understand football fans. They may be marginally more football positive than Stoke under Pulis but any such criticism will be classified as sour grapes by Gooners. They must be bad for the game when Scousers and rags would prefer City to win the title; assuming the comments on social media are genuine.

On reflection you're right, and if you go back to the 'will we win the league' thread on here, there were similar posts made by Blues about City only a few weeks ago.

It's a title race between 2 imperfect teams - I'm just frustrated as we've looked a gift horse in the mouth.

We are famously miserable though

Watching this arsenal team continue to throw it away makes me think what would of happened if we didn't win that title in 2012.

Especially considering we were 8 points behind with six games left or something. We also won it on a goal difference of +8. Despite United winning 8-2 against arsenal our 1-6 win at old Trafford were basically the goals that won us the season. In injury time was a +6 goal swing in our favour in that game. The Kompany winner in the home derby was the other 2 goal swing :) all united needed was one goal in that game and they win the league. It was an impossible season in many ways

The dont beat Spurs ten its Chelsea at home and you dont know what you will get from Chelsea .......they turn up and it will become very very toxic ..........these next 3 games could seriously derail there season
 
The other REALLY PSYCHOLOGICALLY DAMAGING thing that has happened is that Arsenal now know that a 2-0 lead, even to the bottom club in the League, who are already dead and buried, isn’t safe!

So, 1-0 doesn’t feel comfortable and even 2-0 with less than 30 mins to go doesn’t feel safe!

That is fatiguing!

Pretty sure it was a GD of 6 better than the rags.

You can't begin to imagine my surprise.

Rice was pretty much the only Arsehole I had respect for, but at 1-2 last night he was doing stepovers of the ball while it was in the corner triangle rather than restarting the game and he massively went down in my estimations.

I know it all comes from Arteta but, still, just another twat amongst a team of utter twats!

I’ve never respected a team and their antics less. At least with Klopp’s Liverpool it was about football. There were a few dives from Salah and a few dirty challenges from Fabinho and Thiago, but I had more respect for Klopp’s Liverpool as a football team.

I would hate it too.

Remember Yaya diving? He received as many boos from City supporters as he did from the opposition, including from Mrs Vienna and me.

It’s completely unacceptable.

Otamendi was the worst City player I have seen. A so called "hard man" who went down continially holding his face or the back of his head but when the cameras slowed it down it was fucking embarrassing noting that he was either hit in the chest or barely touched.
I hate feigning injury players and I agree something needs to be done.
I`ve always said that Football Players should spend half an hour with the Rugby lads, then they`d know what real pain was.
