Not to mention we will be 2nd.

Unfortunately I don't believe we will beat them - they have been so damn lucky this season with the way they play and getting away with wins and in some cases draws. Fucking terrible to watch but winning somehow.
Mou will come out very deep against us. He will kill every inch of room to avoid out pacey forwards. And their midfield will press low but very compact. Hence we will have to cover more attacking ground than ever to grind out a goal or two there.
I know - just watching them do that, could be the end of us fans - it will be so grotesque to watch we will all strangle ourselves to fucking death watching that drivel of shit, and feel sorry for our players. Best policy in this situation is to gang up against one of their defenders until we break the fucker down and make him our bitch, and let Robertson just pump in those crosses relentlessly to make them all wish they were not sitting so deep. Hopefully they will all crack under pressure and either:-
1) they all turn to shit,
2) the Earth just swallows the cunts up.
Moron - apologies for the bad language.
Dunno about that, Sane was in the way of the keeper when the first city player hit it towards goal. Two arsenal players were also in the way though. I just don't like the large grey area the current implementation of the offside rule has created.
Not sure about city's first either
Utd have a team of giants, lumping in crosses against them is a waste of time. We all know they will sit very tight frustrate oir front 3, play on the break and look to pick us off. They arent that great, Chelsea could have won if theyd been more clinical. If we play with patience and keep recycling the ball rather than just desperately forcing the issue we will get chances.
What's that old saying about the more you practice the luckier you get.
Love him or hate Jose's teams have always ground out results.
They could hold us to a 0-0 or a 1-1 but I don't see them winning.
If Benitez can’t get him disciplined, and that really was pathetic, I’d think he’s going to be confined to relegation fodders and lower league teams for the rest of his career. Only because he can pass the ball.
From Footy365's commentary on Arsenal-City
[article]Now I don’t want to make Arsenal supporters feel any more glum than they already do, but the one negative comment regarding the deal to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was that he might be beginning to lose his pace. When that is gone, it takes away a large chunk of what makes him so effective.
In the first half, Kompany and Aubameyang both sprinted 40 yards to chase the ball. Now Kompany is no slouch, but he gained five yards on Aubameyang before winning the ball from the striker in a shoulder-to-shoulder challenge. Wenger might well have winced slightly at the sight.[/article]
I couldn't believe this ... I thought Auba was one of the fastest players out there, and the way he was caught by Kompany had me going 'Huh?'.
I wonder if they've bought another dud.

This, together with all players walking around covering their mouth when talking after the game was hillarious. What do they think will happen? What secrets do they discuss after the game requiring their mouths to be covered? Idiots.
“I have to say it is a priority. If we achieve anything going forward to get into the top half, we need at least two players to score 10 goals or more” – Allardyce , December 2.
“We need a frontman if we can find one. We will be actively looking for a frontman in this window” – Allardyce, December 29.
“Our attacking powers are limited – that’s why I’ve worked so hard on keeping clean sheets. We need to strengthen the front line” – Allardyce, January 2.
“We don’t have a finisher to put the ball in the back of the net and if you squander your opportunities in the Premier League, you pay the price” – Allardyce, February 24.
Between those third and fourth quotes, Allardyce spent £27m on a striker who had scored four times in the Champions League between September and December. It’s fair to say that he doesn’t fancy Cenk Tosun. Big money well spent.

Excellent. I hope he throws his toys out of the pram ... Fuck up that team even more.
