The Title Race 2022/23

[GaudinoMotors]

They have Brighton at home, Chelsea at home, Newcastle away, Liverpool away, Us away and Fulham away. 5 tough fixtures.

Well, Newcastle away could be I suppose.

Posted last week, 1 orange game out of the way, Arsenal's to come tomorrow:

Apologies West Ham (A) for Arsenal should be the 16th May, will correct it when I get the chance.


I do think away games at Everton and Southampton won't be easy but I'm just relatively comparing. In fact a lot of the games marked in green will be a lot harder given the time of the season they're being played.

I do think we need Arsenal to win on Thursday to keep them playing Thursday, Sunday and keep them distracted:

They play twice before we play Liverpool, it would be nice if we weren't 8 behind (with a game in hand) going into that game. FiveThirtyEight have them between a 6/10 and 7/10 to win in their next 2 games.

I think Arsenal's away games are a lot tougher than ours.

City, Liverpool and Newcastle have only lost a single home game each this season.

Even Forest have taken points in 10 of their 13 home games, and those three losses were in the first month of the season.

If we keep winning and beat them in April maybe. But in real terms they have been generally better than us so far and it is the hope that recent historical experience will play to our advantage that keeps my hopes alive.

Fantastic, we’ve just won the league! Gunners are singing “we’re gonna win the league” Remember United singing “ City’s cracking up”?

Was expecting fulham to get something today.
Starting to think we are running out of games.

You know we have 29% of the season left?

Good to see Fulham putting up a fight here. So organised and showing great determination to get a result…

 

[2infinity&beyond]

Have to say they are playing good football. Absolutely stuffing Fulham. We will need to win every match.

We are nearing the stage where 1 dropped bollock could be fatal.

We really needed them to drop points against either United, Villa or Bournemouth. They were never going to be in tight games relying on late winners every week like some thought.

I still believe we can do it but I think we'll need to beat them at our place.
