The Title Race - 2023/24

I'm concerned about tomorrow.

But if we thrash them we could potentially draw at home to West Ham and still win the league on goal difference, so trying to adopt that mindset instead!

Monkey off our back beating them in the cup. Scored there, won there.

win 1-0 and then win 1-0 again that is all that's needed, 2 goals 0 conceded jobs a goodun

2 wins and that's it. A couple of posters are talking out of their arse wanting it to go down to GD and other nonsense.

There's a small part of me that really wants a draw tomorrow.

That ferocious first half against Liverpool in the Champions League, where we attempting to come back from 3-0, was probably the nearest we've seen to Pep letting loose, and I'd love to see it again.

Final day, none of this 'trust the process', or 'a thousand million passes'.

Pep look every player in the eye moments before the match. Turns away. Stops, then looks back.

"UNLEASH HELL!"

Semi final v Madrid at home

Weird tbh.

The media this morning saying that spurs will lay down if villa win tonight is massively disrespectful to us tbh, yeah it might make it easier if spurs arent quite at it tomorrow, but to suggest that the the winners of the last 3 leagues and treble winners can only win at spurs if spurs dont give their all is hugely disrespectful to city and once again trying to downplay our achievements, nowhere is it suggested that united with half a team didnt really try against arsenal it is only the narrative that arsenal have learned to win ugly and arent going anywhere thats being played out.

Now we might win or we might not but the disrespect is appalling. Just remember for the last few weeks we were going to struggle at brighton because thats a tough place to do, we were going to struggle at forest because they were battling relegation, we were going to struggle against wolves because they had beat us once already this year and the way they played was our achilles heel and then just this weekend it was going to be a struggle against fulham because they dont concede many at home etc etc and now the narrative is that all those teams lay down for us and we need spurs to do the same, they will do anything, anything at all to downplay our achievements.

It's fucking madness, I really don't understand how some of these twats remain in employment. I want Villa to win tonight not because I think it'll make spurs shiter than they are but because I want Liverpool to lose 36 games out the 38 game season and when they play the rags I want both sets of red twats to lose even though I know its impossible.
Even if we absolutely twat then 6+ meaning a draw in last games wins it, it wouldn't be down to spurs laying down on the back of a Villa win. It'll just be their luck finally running out in that fixture. Why the jounros are letting their red shirt bias drive instead of looking at the prospect of a history defining moment and a first ever 4 in a row with had they had any professional integrity would be the angle they could elevate their career.

The idea that we hammer Spurs and win it by drawing at home to West Ham is fanciful. Even if we beat Spurs 5-0, which isn't going to happen, Arsenal would still beat Everton by 3 I think if they really had to.

If we are to win it on goal difference it would be the other way about surely, by drawing tomorrow and hammering the hammers.

I don't see it happening though and think we need to win our last 2.

Think that scenario is highly unlikely. Even if we won by 4 at Spurs they’d only have to beat Everton by 2 to win it on goal difference if we drew with West Ham. Other way round with us putting 6 past West Ham would be more likely.

It might be unlikely, but I'm shitting it about Spurs so it's getting me through those nerves by adopting a more positive approach that we could thrash them and give ourselves a buffer. Chelsea thrashed Everton, but generally they're a hard side to break down and when you've got final day nerves it could be a difficult game for Arsenal that one.

Agree mate . We can’t win them all and arsenal have played fantastic all season and have been the best team in the league . Any other time I’d be saying we’ve got this but j have a really bad feeling about Tuesday night .

Best team in the league who’ve lost 5 to our 3…..

 

[Coatigan]

Best team in the league who’ve lost 5 to our 3…..

And have scored less..

 

[Claytop]

Why Spurs, why away and why with the Arsenal/Spurs narrative.

I equally want it to be tomorrow night and also not in equal measure....
