If and when we do beat them then we could afford to draw at Brighton

At the moment both sides can claim that the title is in their own hands - on the assumption that they will beat Southampton next week, a draw against us will leave us still waiting for them to slip up again. But, they are looking nervy and City have become so good at winning these key games that it is surely more in our hands than theirs.

Nope. Win our game in hand then were 1 point behind meaning a draw would suit arsenalAt least if we do win our game in hand and we beat them we can afford to draw a game and still win on goal difference.

That's what confused me. It still does. We can draw one game but not against arsenal....and still win the league?We can draw one of the other games now
Wrote this today (couldn't resist):
Given W. Ham were 2 goals down, the draw wasn't on the cards at all.
Every game is a potential banana slip now. It's how football works.
This Arsenal draw is important because we may drop points too, especially if we play all possible games, that is 2 games a week. Won't be easy to win all 8 games and make it to both cup finals. It's not impossible, but the chances are under 50% for sure.
I expect Arsenal to drop points...unexpectedly.

I think we can afford a draw against them and win other games.
I can see them dropping points in a few games now

Especially after the media's narrative that we'd bottled it after our draw at forestJust ramps the pressure up on them tenfold..

Saints first half display against us was decent, can only hopeShame it's Southampton at home next for them. A half-decent team will be smelling blood against them, given they cannot even hold on to leads.

Cos if we do beat em we can then afford a draw laterI don't mean to put a dampner on it but if we still have to beat them what's the difference? Apart from physiologically.
