Might? On current form Newcastle will take 3 points I think.

Yeah I was convinced they would beat utd in the cup final and they shat the bed. They also got grannied by Villa recently, when they had the chance to put some distance to 4th place.

I don't think it is a given Arsenal will get beat there, or even draw, not as much as many flat out expect.

All we can do is win our next two games and put the pressure on.


That would leave Arsenal in a position they have not yet been in this season.

i.e knowing that even a win at a tough ground doesn't get you back on top.

Predictable Arsenal win. But at least Chelsea kept the goal difference down with a better 2nd half display, which equals another point.

Over to City.

I don't get this concern with the GD. Arsenal have 4 games left and +12 GD to catch-up. They're not even going to score 12 goals.
 
no one can be anymore than at the level of confindence they were at after sunday, I mean did anyone really believe the arse were dropping points against chelsea?

not until our next 2 games and their games at sid james park will we know where we are at after that it will become much clearer what we need to do, whether we can risk resting/rotating
 
I really thought there would be at least a draw last night, must win tonight early and maybe rest a couple of players on Saturday, huge week for us.
 
I always get worried when new manager comes in so I wouldn't be overly surprised if big Sam masterminded a disgusting match and we drew and Chelsea will prob replace lampard before we play them

When was the last week a PL club hasn't replaced a manger? Might be wrong but manager sackings just feel like var errors now, there seems to be one every week.

By my count, 39 managers so far have taken charge of the 20 clubs on match days.

Not including likely replacements at Leeds and 2 or 3 interim managers whose time will come to an end regardless.
 
Without sounding too cocky or arrogant,I think we win 4-0 tonight,5-0 Saturday,I'm also thinking Arsenal lose at Newcastle on Sunday.

That will put us 4 clear with a game in hand where we can afford a little slip,like maybe Everton or Brighton,but I'm convincing myself we win all our remaining games,and could actually win the title with 7 to even 10 points in the end.
 
I noticed after the Arsenal game that Pep broke away from his one game at a time mantra. He mentioned the trip to Fulham and then the two home games against West Ham and Leeds. Winning the next two should give us the margin of error we need, should Arsenal win all of their games, which is what Pep will be working to. 8pts from our final 4 games is something we would sign up to at the start of the season.

Tonight will be a very tough game, West Ham have plenty of good attacking players. I think they will actually come and play though which might help us beat them. Leeds are a chaotic team. Lots of pace and energy but a real lack of organisation. I can't see Sam getting them particularly organised in two days, and I actually would fear Leeds more if they were gung-ho rather than trying to be defensively solid.

We win tonight and against Leeds that mean last four game we can lose one draw one! Have we lost two or drawn 3 out of any a four game league games
 
Logic says we piss the league from here. Best team, with the best manager, a proven track record of getting the job done at the business end of the season & in our best form, with only 1 injury concern. Bookies say 1/16 on.

What could possibly how wrong?
