Could you share your reasons why you think the league is over?

Genuinely interested.

Defensive mistakes happening again and again.

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize league titles are won on defensive excellence!

 

[WestGorton]

Winning it 5 out of 6 may be too much but surprised that Arsenal are not faltering. Did not see them lasting the pace but I may now be wrong.

It’s not even halfway yet lol.

Logs off to save myself from the “all on Pep” posts.

well if we win it's all on Pep, funny that .
we are still in December and the title is out of our hands . let that sink in.
we are miles weaker than last season .
Pep can't stop us being cheated but he can put players out who can combat it.

They’re my New Years’ best.

Maybe it’s the shoes then. Somethings not right!

Should I not bother watching MOTD then? :-)

Ok, that is why you think the league is gone after 16 games?

 

[Chak19]

As long as we win the champs league that’s the sacrifice I’d take now because at the moment the team looks a tired team and why shouldn’t they two league titles hard thought a World Cup! Maybe we liven up a bit in the next month but winning titles takes it out of players the intensity the pressure eventually catches up with you!

No chance of winning the CL if we concede from every shot on target.

 

[OntarioBlue]

I will trump that, Pep

Guy behind me in East Stand 106 shares your view. He was screaming abuse at Pep for the last half an hour. I’m surprised he wasn’t thrown out

The stats will show it was one shot on target but come on, No keeper is saving that. It's the yearly goal of the year contender by some no mark against us. We have it every year.

Apparently we shouldn’t bother watching the remaining 22 matches of the season, much less MOTD. ;-)

 

[awest]

On a brighter note, we could have easily lost that one today.

 

[lazerblue]

Took one too many chances with team selection today

 

[bluemc1]

I’d advise against it

We weren’t great but having got used to seeing teams park the bus and waste time against us over the last 9/10 years that was the worst I’ve seen today
It simply wasn’t football

 

[hilts]

What can I say? Its a shit result, but after the 20/21 season where we didn't even start playing until Nov and won the league with games to spare, I know better than to fall to pieces in December.

It is neither the time to fall to pieces nor to expect history to repeat itself when it went in our favour. I can't be arsed looking but it would be interesting to know the furthest we have been behind points wise with equal games remaining.

Somewhat concerned is the sane view but you will always get the fretters and the clappers in any fan base.

Er.........
No

 

[Agueroooo9320]

This result was on pep. and most of the bad results this season is on pep. he still has no idea how to break down a mid block these shitty teams are employing. he is vacating and conceding the middle of the pitch by getting bernardo wide and hence isolating KDB who get frustrated and also moves wide. this results in us having no one in the middle to connect with Haaland and he end up getting isolated and feeding of shitty crosses

You might want to get a TV license first.

Yup. Leipzig will be licking their lips with the firepower they have up front and a much better midfield than Everton's.

Ah you are going to be one of my favourite posters i can see it.

I'm not a happy clapper you geek, i'm an old **** who has watched us for over 40 years and now finds gobby little twerps like you thinking they know everything about nothing droning on and on about shit.

I've seen us come back from worse positions than this before.

Have you?

Ahh here we go again more name calling and how many years you’ve supported the club. Yawn.

Not enough to recover

2012. Six games remaining, eight points adrift of utd. With an arguably inferior XI to what we have now.
