It will. And I think I know now we will get feck all.Not as optimistic as past seasons. The return of De Bruyne and Haaland is a huge boost but something seems off in the way we set up.
The game at Anfield will be pivotal.
unless lets say after the first Porto games Saka will be out injured for 6 weeks, then next Porto game Odegaard will be out for 2 months.I think it suits Arsenal having mid-week fixtures.
Only playing once a week was a disaster for Arsenal at the back end of last season. They had an entire week to dwell on draws and losses whilst watching us win both at weekend and mid-week.
and add in the tiredness factor.

And that’s why we still have a great chance. We know how good we are when on it. Still think we will end up grinding them downIt’s going to be a slog if we keep playing this way.
Frustrating, because for the first 20 mins midweek - playing with the same setup as last season - we looked fantastic. Light years ahead of both Liverpool and Arsenal.

I thought we were good too but it has to be taken into consideration that Copenhagen hadn't really played a proper game since December though unless you include the Atlantic Cup. Plus, they are third in the Danish Super League.

Yeah, course we have a chance. And no doubt we are the best, when we’re on it. But I just think Pep seems bent on sticking with this way of playing, and I fear it will cost us too many points.And that’s why we still have a great chance. We know how good we are when on it.

I am not as worried about Anfield. Last time we've been there, we have been the better side, and this Liverpool side is not as powerful. Even if we draw, I would back us to have more points in the remaining fixtures than Liverpool. And Arsenal don't worry me at all.
As frustrating as today was, I feel like Pochetino and Chelsea are always difficult to us. We have to be way more clinical though.

How many Copenhagen players would start for Chelsea? 1-2 max?
Copenhagen are a decent team, but Chelsea’s squad is one of the most expensive ever for a reason.
We weren't good, but it's extremely difficult to be good after 3 PL titles in a row and the Treble. And we could still win another Treble. It's incredible really.
Sure. But it was night and day compared to a lot of our performances this season. Compact, fluid, good rhythms, total dominance, creating chances. Could / should have been 4 or 5 up by the half hour. Most other first halves recently have been a real slog to create anything looking like a proper chance.I thought we were good too but it has to be taken into consideration that Copenhagen hadn't really played a proper game since December though unless you include the Atlantic Cup.

I agree. Also, Copenhagen are on par with Crystal Palace/Brentford. Cannot judge that game for me.

why do Liverpool play next Wednesday its not postponed game
I think we have 4/5 points left to drop before we are truly out of it.
Winner will get 90 points this season.
We won't be truly out of it unless we are 8 pts off the top with 5 games to go. Oh, wait....
Only City can win 87-88 pts this season. Both Liverpool and Arsenal will drop more pts than expected. Recency bias may distort the predictions.

Bump in the road against Chelsea , the next six weeks will confirm if we will win the title , we need to get back on a winning run and to avoid defeat at Klanfield , if we are within a couple of points of the leaders by the end of March we will win it.
