I'd like to welcome all of you to the Arsenal bandwagon.
It's time to stop the cheating bums of Manchester City for the greater good of all.

Yup. That's why they call it the business end of the season. You got to take care of business. They obviously couldn't.
It's good.
Now we're spared more of the nauseating can Liverpool win it for Jurgen crap. Only thing United got right this season is ensuring he leaves with a whimper instead of some hyped up Wembley fanfare.
Now COYS! You've got one job to do. Snuff the light out at Anfield.

Shameful decision by var
These top 6 clubs get every call and the little mid table clubs like chelsea get screwed

Speaking of a debacle of monumental proportions, Arsenal blowing this would pretty much be that.

Well, Raya sure injected some excitement into a game that was just fizzling out.

A few new grey hairs have shown up today thanks to Raya

Scoreline might show City winning, but they've looked bad. Definitely something in this for Forest.

Yes, but it’s all about the results now. And City have the talent to make the difference in all their remaining games.
I’m just glad that Arsenal are making them work for it this season.

Pretty much. Wood has had two sitters and got nothing, Haaland gets one half decent look and scores.

Is Chris Wood on the City payroll?
Missing ridiculous chances

He could just be doing it for free. I think he's referencing Leicester, but always funny to see 12 year old Tweets revived.

Tough to see City losing either of their next two against Wolves at home and then an out of form Fulham away at Craven Cottage which has to be the friendliest/least intimidating EPL ground - especially now that they are out of the CL. Though I guess stranger things have happened and they could stumble.
I think the title gets decided in that away game at Spurs, assuming Arsenal beat Man U away, that's the only game where City seem to have any kind of challenge on their hands.
You've got to wonder how Spurs would approach that game if they are locked into 5th place by then though. Would they dare play a reserve lineup or rest guys like Son? How much pride do they have to win vs. dislike of Arsenal... their fanbase is going to be livid if they hand the Gunners the title

It was a weird game
Arsenal werent exactly dominating like the lead world have suggested, then they didnt really give up much besides 2 individual errors to make it seem close at the end

I think Spurs are professional enough to want to beat City regardless.

Ange had a whole thing this week about focusing on themselves and not peeking over the fence to care
Dont see them throwing
Also seems unlikely it's over by then because of games in hand, villa would need to beat brighton and liverpool away, and spurs lose all 3 prior to city

I thought Spurs were on top when Arsenal scored their second - in fact I just chuckled because I had just told my wife it’s only a matter of time before Arsenal concede.
Spurs were poor dealing with corners, a bit of fortune with the woodwork and Arsenal being more clinical, settled it in the first half. Well, at least until Raya played that inexplicable pass. I still can’t figure out what he was doing. Arsenal only had to keep out Spurs for 15 minutes in the second half to help the game along the way to fizzling out, and were easily doing that until that point.
Still, a win is a win, and at this point of the season, that is all that matters.

News has just come out that Premier League clubs have an agreement in principle to introduce a spending cap. It will be based upon television rights money earned by the lowest earning club in the league.
I’m pretty sure there will be huge opposition to this, to the extent that there will likely be talk of another breakaway.
