The Title Race - 2024/25

How many points to win the league?

  • Total voters
    301
  • Poll closed .
Some comments that the Dippers may win the PL. Ain't gonna happen, will be City or Arsenal, I'd say 60% City.

Reason it won't be the Dippers is they have only one way to play and against better teams they'll get neutralised and their weaknesses punished. City, Arsenal (and also Villa) can play in multiple ways and that makes them able to dig out points that teams like Liverpool, Spurs (who have only one way of playing) won't be able to. Example Arsenal getting a win at Villa Park by playing deep and countering, plus having a deadly set piece. Bayern on the other hand progressed with their usual one style of playing and getting hit on the sucker punch, just like Leverkusen did to them. That's why Bayern won't win the CL either, it will be between City and Madrid, and possibly if all the stars align Arsenal or Inter.

Ironically Rags have zero ways of playing.

What are Arsenal's different ways of playing? Changing it from faking cramp to faking head injuries? Fouling the keeper on set plays to fouling the defenders on set plays?

They either play attacking, high pressing football with inverting fullbacks or they can play a low block and hit on the counter as they know teams can't score against them.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if we win nothing or win everything. What a curious feeling.

It's a strange start to the season. We need to go up several gears and hope that key players start to click or we need both Arsenal and Liverpool fall away and drop lots of points. It's still early though and both scenarios are in play.

Eez football as Bobby Manc used to say....

If we win the league this season without Rodri all season it will be Pep’s finest achievement. I was confident after the first 3 games but I don’t think we have played well since then. The way Brentford, Inter and Fulham have caused us problems is a bit concerning.

But we beat two of them and drew against the other
 
I make Arsenal fav ATM. They are killing teams off, even after going behind.

Losing Rodri all season is a massive blow. It's a blow I don't think City will recover from.

We'll be in the mix, but I don't think we have the depth of squad, 1 striker, Haaland, to battle Arsenal all season to the title.
