The Title Race 2022/23

[Coatigan]

Psychologically, so much of a title race is about momentum. A few weeks ago when it looked like Arsenal might be coming to the Etihad 11 points clear, we’d have been ecstatic to find ourselves where we are now.
But then Arsenal firstly went into ‘bottling’ mode and secondly, we hammered them. Everything was almost looking too easy and the title would be sealed with games to spare.
Now they’ve had a couple of wins, some people are getting a bit twitchy again. Just need to relax - it’s in our own hands and we’ve been here before. Gonna be fine.

Their momentum is, they've won their last two games. Oooooohh.

Our momentum is, we've won our last... fuck I've actually lost count, but it is a lot.

One game at a time.

Pep will go strong in every game until we’ve won it.

We need 8 points out of 12 to win it.

Arsenal need 9 out of 9. And us to drop 5 out of 12.

Everton - currently in terrible form, we have 4 full days rest.
Chelsea - it's a home game, we can beat anyone, and they've nothing to play for.
Brighton - just like City, they play 4 times before this game. By then, European spot will be out of reach especially if Arsenal beat them.
Brentford - have nothing to play for, if we need a win we'll get it.

The fixtures appear tough, but they are not that bad.

I will add that 3 of those teams won’t park the bus, as they tend to try and play a bit of football….which suits us.

Funny how Brighton away is really tough when most likely they’ll have nothing to play for. But it’s a stroll in the park for arsenal to play them at home when they still have a lot to play for

Can’t understand the flapping. What else does this team and this manager have to do to earn trust?

It’s actually unbelievable.

Big win for them yesterday, let's not kid ourselves.

It makes the Everton a huge fixture, not that is wasn't before.

Trust this team and manager to get the job done.

Arsenal need 9 out of 9. And us to drop 5 out of 12.

I like the way you put that.

We’ve been here before 4 times in the last 10 years ( I think). 3 times v Liverpool, 1 time v Utd.

End of season and we need to win our last games. So it’s not new to the players. Arsenal are not gong away so just like the other times we have to do it ourselves. If we don’t then good luck to Arsenal.

Their games are nailed on. Forest are a lot better at home and Brighton will be motivated especially if they win tonight.

Alternatively whilst no guarantees this is one of the worst Everton teams and if they lose tonight there will be massive pressure on them.

It’s hilarious isn’t it. Ask every other supporter & more importantly, the bookie.
