Title Race

[LarryHagman]

Good title race this. And, despite earlier protestations, all the current incumbents are in it. Including Villa, they've been ace.

Spurs will get players back and improve. Villa won't drop off. Arsenal will sign a striker. Man City will get players back. We will continue to churn results.

We've got a great chance.

 

[rubans]

Arsenal are not out of the title race, especially if Spurs are in it. Not sure agree, the teams are worse. Generally quality is a lot better apart from City who were always going to bounce back, not sure why there were so much excitement about City’s for last season anyway. Going back to quality of last season, just look at how horrible tje teams that finished 3rd and 4th. Disgraced themselves in CL this season, Arse are probably better this season on paper but just had fantastic start prior to Christmas which they couldn’t maintain post Christmas.

 

[LarryHagman]

No-one's out of the race love. Buckle up and get yourself ready.

Mad how Arsenal were top at Xmas and by NYD are out of the title race.

Long long way to go but great we finding ways to win.

20pts from 24pts on offer since drawing away to City.

Hard to complain about that.

Repeat that x2 and we’ll be champions.

Mad how some fans at Xmas had no belief or had any interest to believe we were title contenders now all of a sudden by NYD have their cocks in their hands wanting to suck on it.

I expected a win tonight, but do I expect us to beat Bournmouth in our next PL game ? ...no not 100%. Ask me about my cock in March, an I shall tell you.

Unless we're perfect you're always going to whine and whinge. We gained a point on them and you can't blame us for VARs ineptitude (costing us at least another 5 points). Hopefully VAR will even out over a season - even though I know it doesn't always work that way.

It is a scandal if football fans are saying VAR will even itself out over a season. That's exactly what we used to say about poor refereeing in the past. Then all the investment in technology has just contributed to shifting of the blame. There should be KPIs for the ref and which ever tech vendor is used for VAR based on incorrect on field decisions rectified and VAR fueled incorrect decisions and it should impact the salary/bonus/contract payout to vendor etc.

Its super annoying that even the highlight videos have time to show the entire VAR drama play out, it has become a key element of football broadcasting even though the fans hate it.

Opta predictions:

Why are Spurs even there lol.

That figure for City at Eve is bollocks.

 

[Judge Jules]

Early in the season they forecast this would be Everton's year for the drop. B@stards got my hopes up.

 

[Frogfish]

Why are Spurs even there lol.

That figure for City at Eve is bollocks.

To keep Dreamy happy.

 

[Frogfish]

Opta predictions:

Nilsson Grace are obviously better / more accurate. City 42% Liverpool 38% about a week ago.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Sorry lads but I got a good laugh from this vid:

Ya I lolled. I can’t embed videos 🙁

 

[Dreambeliever]

Opta predictions:

lol imagine going from 26.8 to 4 in a few days!

 

[Dreambeliever]

City are much bigger fav than 60%.

 

[bluebell]

Easy to understand analysis

 

[Frogfish]

Good to understand analysis

Been saying that for ages. We're in a great position.

[The Nomad]

He's just a bit salty because he said West Ham would finish above us at the start of the season.

Newcastle's difference between home and away is shocking.

 

[binomial]

Newcastle's difference between home and away is shocking.

Crazy to think we have the best away record in the league, yet from the performances it feels like we've lost about 3-4 games.

Newcastle's is shocking but Villa too, for a side that high up in the table......that away form is horrendous, considering they drew again yesterday it's now played 11, 4W, 3D, 4L

 

[mark1975]

Great to see that The People's Club are so shit in front of their amazing home support.

 

[King Binny]

Poor Brentford

City: W W W W W
Us: ? ? ? W ?

 

[Brizzle]

This is the part of the season we need to be mentally strong, City are going into their run of 'easier' fixtures without an cup games really interfering with priorities. If we end up within 2 points of them after we play them in March, I think we will do it and go all the way. We just need to hold our nerve if we go into the game at the Etihad behind them on the table.

I think that FA Cup game against Arsenal was a blessing in disguise. We have now seen Arteta's plan for how to play against us, and learned how to address it. I expect us to start that way, and on the front foot in that league game. We can't afford to let them dominate play like they did in that first half.

City: W W W W W
Us: ? ? ? W ?

Let's hope Ivan Toney comes back top of his game and can do something in either of those games against City.

I think Chelsea & Brentford are two other games I think we should win without doing anything stupid. Bournemouth & Arsenal are the tough ones. If we take momentum from Bournemouth & Chelsea to Arsenal I think we can really surprise them in that game.

 

[Dreambeliever]

At least talk of a title will ease after the next 5 games. City will be home and dry.

We play at home against City. So that gives us an advantage.
