We’ll go to Arsenal and win
All we needed to do was win against Southampton, or Bournemouth, or Cardiff, or Newcastle . . . All at home
****ing dismal failures.

We'll go to Arsenal and do what we did v Tottenham, one game does not make a summer, we're still shit.

We won't. Chris will be concerned only about our Goal difference now. That's our 'get out of jail free' card.

Cardiff play first so we will know exactly what we need to do next weekend, It would be lovely to finish on a high note if Cardiff lose or draw. Club need to give fans hope for next season.

Absolutely agree, some on here are having orgasms over a draw in which we were absolutely appalling for 50% of the game.

I may be the odd one out on this thread but I think we can get a point at Arsenal ... they have Euro Cup games either side of ours so expect team changes & fatigue will have some impact. If we actually attack them at some point we have a chance to even win the game as the Arsenal defence has been pretty woeful most of the season but we will need to be at our best in defence and counter quickly & maybe score from a set piece.

Exactly. We're pretty much there.

We. Are. Away. To. Arsenal!
I.Know.But.They.Have.Been.On.Awful.Form.
I was talking more about the manner of our performance not necessarily the result although a point would be delightful and a win like asking for the world.
**** Cardiff, we need 2 points.
We could win against Arsenal, we'll never beat Man City. . . . I suspect we'll do a Tottenham @ the emirates, and stay in the game at 0-2 home to MC.
Whilst I'd say all guns a blazing against both, Indon't think we have any players that can remember far back enough to actually do that.

Form? Shall we talk form from opposing sides? Cardiff won their first away game in 2019 v us and got their first clean sheet in some 19 in the same game v us. There is your 'form' me old mucker.
If having a go means being gung-ho attacking I think it reduces our chances of winning. Our best bet is to make it scrappy, stay in the game and have a go in the last 20 minutes. I think it's kamikaze to go toe to toe with Arsenal the way they play and the players we have. A draw there still gives us a remote chance of collecting a further point against City at home which would make it impossible for Cardiff to catch us.
I'd like to see a repeat of the Spurs performance with a little more attacking intent but not recklessness.

By the time we play it might hopefully be academic anyway.

I know, I know, we have been beyond atrocious. After 5 years of feast the last 4 months have been demoralizing but let me at lest dream of getting something at Arsenal.
