Remember Fulham treating their game against us like a cup final a few weeks ago. 

I’m not watching today but see they’re bending over and spreading their cheeks for Arsenal of course judging by the score that’s flashing on my screen. Could be 3-0 up with ing 30 minutes if not for a tight VAR review.

Arsenal are on it. We were the ones spreading our cheeks

Hopefully next season Arsenal may be less like this. Last week game def their turning point and looking at remaining fixtures hard to see where they would drop points from now really way they play and keep going.f

16th - West Ham (A)

I can see them easily winning 3 out of those 5.

If they win against City, that'll seal the title IMO.

Thats the thing City aren't exactly consistent either. They'll definitely drop more points between now and the end...its Arsenal's to lose and has been for ages! Even if people said otherwise for a long time till became obvious they were in it for the long run and all.

Unfortunately, Arse play the sort of football that should see them maintaining this level for good next year and beyond. They sadly don’t seem like a one hit wonder PL winner to me. They’ve got those Guardiola style patters and understanding from each and every player front to back engrained into them now. 

They can now go and up the overall quality of their squad in them summer which is where their true weakness is. They’ve been fortunate to not sustain a long term injury to any of their key midfielders and only Jesus out of their attack has missed long stretches. With CL footy and likely title winning pedigree they’ll be MUCH more attractive to genuinely top players which they haven’t been for like 10 years.

The cunts are here to stay, as annoying as it is to admit. No excuse at all for us not to be up there challenging them if we are smart in completing our team in the summer, though.

What a joke Utd going down to 10, where were the 2 reds for Lei yesterday! This is what does me in, the consistency is just as bad with or without Var.

Wolves gifted an equaliser. It would be nice for another top 4 contender to drop points.

Sadly I think it's game over now for us, the February fixtures was our big chance to close the gap.

I still want us to be in Europe though even if it is the conference league, in the Roman era I'd want us to avoid that one but I feel we need our first piece of silverware of the new ownership asap before it becomes a thing and that should give us as close to a guaranteed one as possible to get.

Or we could win the UCL again and make everything I've just said irrelevant 🤣

If our fitness team gets their act together and we get a nice QF draw, the latter might not be so unthinkable.

Let’s hope we do the same to Arsenal as we did to Spurs when Leicester won the league
