Havertz 3-0 game over

[Vesper 27,386]

Havertz is finally turning into the player he was in Germany

[OneMoSalah 8,616]

Spurs hard done with at 1-0 as performance was good at probably should of has a goal for 1-1 but Arsenal showing how ruthless they are. They have been brilliant at set plays all season.

it is a bit hard to hate Arse, as they have no individual player I truly detest

[Laylabelle 9,304]

This is why don't understand when they lost against Villa it was ooo Arsenal have bottled the title blah blah. That loss hasn't effected them so far and all it takes is City to drop points and they're firmly in control.

Havertz with another goal...Rice another assist. They're laughing.

City wont drop points though.

Arsenal have thrown it away 2 years in a row really.

And this is arguably the best team they’ve had since the Invincibles yet they have won nothing major.

Rice been an unbelievable signing though, can’t believe people thought Caicedo and Enzo were better value for £100m plus, he shits all over them so much.

and I hate spuds more than any other team on the planet (Manure a close 2nd, and Pool near them)

Shouldn't knowing what they have to do but have had some iffy draws...probably go down to the last day not quite as early as last year won. Only 3 games left for Arsenal. 

Yep definitely and it's a shame! They got their man I duno what we got 🤣

City still have the experience/knowhow and will have the bit between their teeth now.

Arsenal have never ever done it when the pressures on and it really matters hence why they bottled it last season. Get the feeling it will be too little too late this season, the Villa result was huge.

Also the draw with City really they probably had to win that to give them the upperhand.

Pride of London blahhh no thanks. Rather Liverpool if came to that but that's gone out the window now. Always rather City regardless of their dodgyness less of a close rival. 

Plus trophy looks better with blue ribbons.

One day hopefully we can be up there again..

I tipped Citeh to win the league each season since the start of the 2020/21 season

so I wager they see it through yet again

that 2019/2020 Covid season was a bizarro result all around (fucking Pool, smdh)

Pool English league titles

1900–01, 1905–06,

1921–22, 1922–23,

1946–47,

1963–64, 1965–66, 1972–73, 1975–76, 1976–77, 1978–79, 1979–80, 1981–82, 1982–83, 1983–84, 1985–86, 1987–88, 1989–90,

2019–20

1946–47,

Wolves choked at home on the last game of the season

all they had to do was draw and they would have won the league (other than if Sheff U had won a late game, see below, and a Wolves win would have meant even a Sheff U win would not have mattered)

 

also

Stoke would have won the league if they had beaten Sheff U on June 14 (a make-up game due to a horrid winter with many Stoke cancellations)

but Stoke choked too

so Pool won it via the other 2 teams' chokes
