Well obviously, but now the worst case scenario is we and up five clear and one more game done.

Of course although I’d say we’ve been given a boost when we were wobbling.

Arsenal have an easier run so it would ideal to take advantage of any ‘easier’ games they slip up in so we can have the buffer for the dropped points in the tougher and more pressured games.

I'm with JJ on this - it does my head in when people say things like "yes he caught him, but it wasn't enough for a penalty", I'm not an expert on the rules, but I doubt the rules define a foul as when "one player catches another player AND the level of contact is subjectively judged to be over some unspecified threshold."

If this was the case there would be about 15-20 penalties per game.

What a magical day.

Arsenal absolutely bottle the chance to apply real pressure.

Of course we could still bottle it ourselves but Arsenal losing their long long unbeaten run before us is a huge mental blow to them and boost to us.

If we can go and win at City where Klopp never could in the league and none of our players have before that would be a telling blow I think.

This race is bananas.

We could be 14 clear on Weds or 2.

Not 2!

So we can't be worse off, and have an opportunity to take advantage.

You could almost call it a 'free hit'.
 
Today was huge, IMHO.

People are fearing the Arsenal they were, not the Arsenal they are. They can't create enough for their shit attackers to score.

Arsenal at the best beat West Ham 0-6 at their place. This side couldn't score a goal in 105 minutes this time around and took 82 minutes to unlock Leicester.

Seems like they are suffering the same pressure as us which is good news

It takes the pressure of the players too, which is perfect at this point.

Very much so. Imagine if Arsenal had won - they would have been nervous and worried. Now the players can go into the City game knowing that they can virtually put this to bed. I expect nothing less than major energy snd determination from them for the full 90 mins.
 
What a massively disappointing season for Odegaard.

Very good player on his day but he's not world class.
 
Our lad who apparently isn't better than McConnell is playing against Barca right now.

Only had 10 men for a chunk in fairness

But of course none of that matters because spreadsheets 😉

How could it be 2 ?

Ange showing he can get a tune of spurs when injuries clear up.

Looked like he was a dead man walking but signs he can stick around now.

I think an important aspect of management is to be able to adapt and get a tune of sorts out of a side with injuries too.
