Emery comes across as a decent human being, could be that Arsenal just wanted a real cnut to manage them… Hence why they chose Arteta
Their run in now is very sticky…the next “easy” opportunity at 3 points doesn’t come until the last day.
Ha. Yeah Arteta has taken what is these days an unusually central role in the rebuilding of the side. It could have been that among the other dysfunction that was happening at the club in filling the Wenger void they werent happy with how hands off Emery was in that area.
Anyway, turning off the city game already. Kind of ridiculous how long it took to complete that VAR review for what was a very clear handball
No bullshit stutter step runup from Haaland. Sprints up and scuffs it off the post into the goal. Wow.
Good job it isn’t downhill. He’d never stop, the fat cunt.
I’d lost track of how long Arteta has been in the role. Nov. 2019. That’s a lot of time to find one’s sea legs. No UCL football in those three seasons either.
Teams can have a season where it all goes right.
They looked rather concerning against us after we woke up.
I really don’t think they did anything against us particularly good to get 2-0 up and after their second they did nothing to deserve getting a win out of it.
All in for Nottingham Forest tomorrow!
Yeah get at least a point you Robin Hood fucks
I thought the Ev needed to win today if they wanted to stay up. But no matter how shite they are and how many times they lose they never seem to be in the bottom 3.
Southampton are gone and Forest have a horrendous run-in. That leaves West Ham, Leeds, Leicester and the Ev fighting it out to claim that final relegation place.
The blueshite have no easy aways. Palace next up, then Leicester, Brighton and Wolves. Hard to see them beating either Newcastle or City at home.
Gut feeling says it’s them or Leicester.
The fact that there are so many crap teams this year makes the fact that we have dropped points to so many of them all the more bewildering.
The mad thing is we haven’t scored 1 goal against any of the bottom 10 sides away from home. Yet we’ve beaten 3 of the top 6 away.

Looking at the respective managers, I have to think that Leicester will go down and the Ev will just scrape in. Really don’t know why Leicester appointed Dean Smith when Rafa was available.
I should’ve put a few bob, i.e. pounds, on that instead of going to bed. Hope you didn’t have a flutter!
I think we’ve lost to the bottom team at least 3 times.
I would expect that we will only play the bottom side one more time mind. I think Soton will remain down there.
Any surprise result now could be massive for any of those teams and we’ve been handing them out. (Leeds and Forest next )
Forest need to make home count, Leicester do have the games to get out of it but they appointed Dean Smith.
That though was an incredibly poor result by Everton, Fulham had been struggling up to today. You wonder if Dyche’s magic burned out at Burnley.
A couple of home wins would be great!
Am past caring - football is such a cesspit of corruption that is now more a mass-media driven hot air balloon, and which largely supported by people who believe supporting a club is the closest thing they have to belonging to “something”, that it is hard to find a completely clean pair of hands.
Arsenal were always likely to bottle it. MC are what they are - a good side bankrolled by a highly objectionable state. They will get away with whatever they want and there we are.
I like the underdog and if that inflicts a couple of wounds on our likely rivals for next season - then, even better.
I saw a stat yesterday (I’ve not checked it’s authenticity) that said we’ve failed to score away from home against any of the bottom ten teams in the Prem. But have beaten 3 of the top six away from home.
As I’ve posted before, it’s not for a lack of trying. Other than Manchester City, we have had the most shots on target away from home in the league this season.
I think both Forest and Leeds were bottom and I’m sure another was as well.
We’ve had some really odd form, the shots against opposition would be a little off though as we had a few against Wolves but that game was dead within 12 mins.
