The Title Race - 2023/24

[marco]

Can't help wondering if the Netflix documentary has demoralized both teams.
Being released when it was seemed odd and plenty of us questioning why now.
Perhaps it was intentional to get in their heads at a crucial time of the season while the added boost of making our players feel invincible.
Far fetched as it sounds nothing is left uncovered by Pep and the team.
Can't imagine other club's fans watching but player's who live and breath football will and I can't imagine a club instructing players that they must not watch it.
Propaganda is a powerful tool and used time and time again to gain an advantage.
Just ask yourself if you felt more confident that City could still win it all after watching the documentary, I know I did.

thats a great point mate,if it was delayed for the reason to spur the players on then thats very very clever marketing from the club,something that would never enter the head of 99% of people, and were worried over the 115 our owners most likely put that to bed a decade ago

I assume you mean Arsenal could still win if we win 5 and draw 1?

Just because if they do that, we could lose against Spurs (assuming Liverpool fuck up again) and still have breathing room.

Yes probably getting a bit ahead but Arsenals goal difference is a bit of a worry (minimum of 6 difference and 5 games in which to do something).

Feel with Liverpool we will stay ahead on GD so a slight bit of breathing space.

As horrible as it would be, I would absolutely love to win the league against Liverpool on GD, something ridiculous like 1 goal or same GD but we scored 1 more goal.

Are the Premier League getting 5 Champions League places next season ?

Odds are still in favour of England, so it could be a dead rubber for Spurs anyway but we'll know more after the quarters and semi finals, which will be concluded before we play Spurs.

Germany will probably be favourites for the 5 spots if:
Leverkusen knock West Ham out - Likely.
Bayern knock Arsenal out - 60/40 Bayern's favours.
Atalanta knock Liverpool out - Likely but not ruling Liverpool out.


If all that happens, I think Villa would need to win the UECL and we'd need to win the UCL for England to get 5 spots.

Ah yes if Arsenal are perfect then we'd probably have to win all 6. Looking at their fixtures though, I think they could drop plenty more points.

i think both will drop points and us included, it depends on what points are dropped a draw or a loss,at the moment should we draw and liverpool win on the same matchday we would most likely stay above them as we have a higher goals scored, arsenal is the one because they have the higher GA but i think there dropped points will be losing

We've just cut the goal difference by 50% in one match

I think one of these will drop points today.

You were wrong :):):) And how beautiful it is!

One game at a time, Real Madrid

 

[Ric]

It’s been an absolutely brilliant day for us, but think all three teams will still drop points so not getting carried away yet. Feels like a big momentum shift in our favour though.

We made up 6 goals this weekend - given arsenals games and ours that can very rapidly swing
