The Title Race - 2023/24

Just as pep says “we need our people” got to really get behind the team and push them over the line.

They are a weird bunch but I always think its a bad decision for a manager to announce his departure part way through a season. I'm sure I will be corrected but I can't think of an example where it has gone well.

Even happened with City, with Pellegrini. Won the League Cup and then petered out in the league

Both Liverpool and Arsenal play TWICE before we play again.

Next weekend
Saturday Wolves v Arsenal
Sunday Fulham v Liverpool

Tuesday Arsenal v Chelsea
Wednesday Everton v Liverpool
Thursday Brighton v City

After this weekend, and taking into account midweek fixtures, those could be tricky ;)

Next weekend
Saturday Wolves v Arsenal

Tuesday Arsenal v Chelsea
Wednesday Everton v Liverpool
Thursday Brighton v City

It could all be over before we play again.

 

[I'm not really here]

Is a double treble on? Really?

Be an even greater achievement than last season IF we pull it off, as we seem to have a weaker squad this year.

3-0 Liverpool, 3-1 Arsenal

Oh yee of little faith :-)

I can't imagine it helps.

But that said, it's very difficult to keep a story under wraps these days, so it might have come out anyway that he was leaving. I don't think there's that much they could have done about it

but I don't think they needed a big emotional song and dance either, how can it help?

He signed a contract in 2022 until 2026, there was no reason to announce he was leaving at the sharp end of the season. He's made it all about him and it looks like some fans at least (if not some players) are already turning against him.

Maybe but it’s something we will probably need to go through with Pep., but the 2 times Peps done it before he’s won the league.

QUADRUBBLE.

You get the feeling both these lot will drop more now. We have that fear aura.

We do, they've been looking over their shoulders most of the season and now they're in our rear view mirrors their heads will drop and they'll drop more points. We're in beast mode now.
