FA desperate to stop City, once the corner was cleared the referee would normally blow his whistle, time was well up..one word fixed

For me personally Pep and City are always number one enemy. For sure all neutrals around the world all cheer for Arsenal because they are inferior side. 

By that token, even their rigged FA Cup final win against us was also well deserved.

I'm sure all the 'neutrals' were cheering for Arsenal when Arteta won his first trophy

Arsenal are not an inferior side, they've just been very very lucky with injuries this season (i.e. I don't recall them having multiple first team players out with injury at the same time).   They had a stat the other day where it said Arteta has made 20 or less changes to his first choice XI across the season....compare that to Potter who has had to make 70+ changes in the season.

Did seem funny..ish when they lost Jesus there was this was this feeling of ooo this is when they fall apart..except turns out they have other players just as capable. That also helps.  And lack of injuries aside their players have a desire. Haven't lost confidence when going goals down just carry on till they've won really.

What do you mean they are not inferior side? How many players would make City starting 11? Only Saka. City second team is better on paper. Before season you would say they have a chance for title?

Liverpool’s old, aging squad looked done and dusted when they were right there in the mud with us level on points. Looked like they were in desperate need for a total rebuild.

Look at them now. What an elite manager can do.

Remember when Liverpool looked unlikely to get top 4 and seemed like would finish near us...Happy days.

They have a WC keeper (on his day) and arguably the best player in the league. Form is temporary....

Fuck off Potter

No matter how much world class talent we have I cannot ever picture us challenging the truly top teams in this league with a mediocre manager.

of course, he is shit

look at how much better Brighton are without him

That is a ridiculous finish from Salah. Back to his razor sharp best here.

Man, it must be nice to have lethal finishers… 😔
