Will we win the league this season? No

[iwasthere1968]

Yes we will.

 

[super_city_si]

I do hope Pep told the players of his plans or this news is potentially very damaging.

I doubt they’d be finding out from the daily mail. If the tea lady knows so do the players

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Just to expand on this, when Glasner was manager of Eintracht Frankfurt they played their final Bundesliga game on 14th May and he went with a strong team and used it as a dress rehearsal for the Europa League final they won on 18th May.

In this case it's less of a break but I think for an hour he'll do exactly the same before making 5 changes and resting up. The Palace players will want to impress the manager enough to start that final so I think we can trust them to go for it. It's whether even at their best they can stop Arsenal winning. It would be just like Palace to get a result.

I seem to have hazy memories of them doing us a rather large favour not so long ago - 2014 anyone ;)

The recent Everton, West Ham and Forest draws are what stopped us winning the league

Chelsea last few mins equaliser
The 2-0 up v spurs. Theyre the ones

No I still think it is the recent 3 draws that did it. When Arsenal dropped a couple of points not long ago this board lit up with joy. Win all our remaining league games and we win the league was the belief. They were winnable games. Drawing 3 of them was fatal

We are still in the tombola with two tries to go, the big prize is still there.

 

[Gray]

All the matches we took the lead in only to end up drawing have cost us big time.

I think we'll win the next two, but I can't see Arsenal dropping points to Palace. They've put in uninspiring performances one after another all season, but they still get results through their terrorism tactics.

I do have a glimmer of hope that Palace want to play themselves into good form and train for the high stakes nature of their final next Wednesday.

Please oh footballing Gods, bring the title to its home in the North.

Palace didn’t look like they weren’t arsed v Brentford. Having said that they will up against 14 on Sunday.

 

[Brunswick Blue]

I think the shot answer is no. I can't see Arsenal fluffing their lines on the last day.

I think that can just come down to them resting and not risking injury in a game that doesn't matter for the league or do anything to prep for their final. Sunday is their last chance to build momentum so I'm not anticipating them rolling over for at least the first hour.

I'd like 2 of each please on Sunday.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Just win the last 2 and put the pressure on VAR…no doubt they’ll produce

 

[Cobwebcat]

I think the shot answer is no. I can't see Arsenal fluffing their lines on the last day.

I can, they are full of nerves and it’s harder to play away. There is a reasonable chance.

I actually think it might be equally hard for us to win tonight as Palace being a draw v Arsenal.

We’ve all seen a lot together, really weird unlikely stuff. You just never know.

 

[Danny Tiatto]

I think the shot answer is no. I can't see Arsenal fluffing their lines on the last day.

If we beat Bournemouth the pressure is going to be absolutely immense on Arsenal to get the job done

 

[Penfold the Duke]

If that's not the biggest 'Red Flag' on corruption in the EPL, then I don't know what is.
Where has the integrity in the game gone ?
Even my under 16's team has had a red card this season. We only play 18 games and haven't done anything like Arsenal have got away with this season. It's inconceivable how Havertz got away with that tackle last night.

It would be really interesting if some maths (or gambling) boffin on here could actually work out the odds of a Premier league team going the whole season with no red cards and no penalties awarded against.

It would be really interesting if some maths (or gambling) boffin on here could actually work out the odds of a Premier league team going the whole season with no red cards and no penalties awarded against.

Likely market price would have been around 525/1. Around 0.19% probability.

Just mental.

 

[bert38]

Let's win tonight and take it to the last game-then who knows.

 

[Don Karleone]

Watching the decision those cunts get in their favour, I doubt it. They wanted a different winner, they're gonna get one.
