The Title Race 2022/23

[Bluemoonadam]

In such a weird season it seems to me that the Premier league has already decided that it wants either arsenal or the rags to win the league. Yes I know arsenal had that bad decision against brentford but they had 2 favourable since then. And the rags have been getting them all season.

Don't think the premier league had anything to do with the chances we missed the other day

No they didn't but they definitely influenced the results at villa and the old toilet.

Arsenal’s next 5 games look easier than ours that’s for sure.

In a glass half full mood after a grumpy weekend, but we are only 2/5 points with 14/15 games to go behind a Arsenal team that look likely to drop more points and who we still have to play at home having beaten them twice this season. Every dropped point feels like we are handing the title to them because essentially that's how it worked with Liverpool, but we just need to match and slightly better Arsenal (and United's) points total and we are still in it. We are far from dead yet. It's almost guaranteed to be a much lower points total than previous years.

If we'd of beaten Everton and forest both games in which we should be winning it'd be mostly irrelevant anyway.

I have always loved the conspiracy that the premier league "decides" who is winning a title, but it's never us. Their debrief meetings in May must have been a nightmare for a decade, "well we wrote a script, we decided in February it was going to be anyone other than City, who didn't action it? Who is to blame?!? Next year we'll get them, just you wait".

Still gutted about Saturday. How the fcuk did we not win that game? FFS

We are in an excellent position.

I see the gap as two points because I would back us to win the return game at the Etihad also.

We have been in third gear all season and it still wouldn't surprise me to see us with the Treble, such is the crazy nature of this season.

Agree and I thought Saturday we were back to what we used to be dominate making loads of chances only shame we didn’t get the 3 points

Nuances, subtleties lost on you? As Pep has intimated - so far we've bypassed their intent by being far too good for them to rein in - although they got close a few times.
