Topic: Premier League Fixtures 27th - 28th April

[Fromola]

Forest ran out of steam a bit after fluffing their chances and then Haaland gets one and bags it.

City are from guaranteed 4 wins though on that form, they were second best for an hour. Arsenal could have done with them in a CL semi next two midweeks.

Imagine if we were still in the race and pinning our hopes on them dropping points before they inevitably win it out. Glad we don't have to endure that torture again and nice to see another team getting a dose of it. Most Arsenal.fans I met wanted city to beat us every time so they can fuck off and have a dose of that now.

[**** The Pain Away.]

There it is. Most boring league in the land.
Congrats FA the dirty pricks.

It is not though? It is year after year the most competitive in Europe.

[smicer07]

He's incredible. We so need that.

Nunez would have been looking to aim for the keepers noggin in that situation.

Yeah you're missing a goalscorer. Jesus isn't good enough.

[DelTrotter]

Yep, that bum Nunez would never score at the City ground.

Why do you keep laying into our players?

[Ciara (with a capital "C")]

God, wanting and relying on a team like Forest to take points off City is part of a title race I do not miss.

[red mongoose]

What a fucking donkey.

[LFCEmpire]

Of course it isnt but City raking up the titles even when everyone say they are having a off year is sickening.

Chris Wood isn’t a bad player, but he’s having an absolute mare.

Nobody gives a fuck about City, so them winning titles means nothing to anyone. The one set of fans who hate them (United) even cheer them on if it stops us.

[Andar]

City look stale.

Need a big rebuild.

Linked with Musiala. Probably bring in a £60m centre back too.

Ourselves and Arsenal will be kicking this missed opportunity.

[koptommy93]

Wood's gunna go home and manage to burn his house down

They pretty much have 2 starting 11s, a semi final wouldn’t have made any difference for them. Bad results are the only thing that sometimes knock them off stride, they don’t get injuries.

[disgraced cake]

I actually thought City's biggest chance of dropping points was Brighton, and yes I know they've been poor. They might not batter everyone 5-0 from here on out but I do think it's going to be won with a relatively safe run in. Spurs won't turn up against them IMO, they've nothing to play for and not a single Spurs fan in the ground will want them to win.

Spurs aren't going to let Arsenal win the title despite what some on here think. If spurs are out of CL contention it'll be an easy City win.

Comes down to that penultimate set of games where Spurs play City and United play Arsenal.

Watch Spurs go and nick something. No chance Everton or United would ever do us a favour.

Spurs fans will be begging their players to throw that game

[Andar]

Why do you keep laying into our players?

He doesn't get enough credit in the media. He should be lauded far much more. Genuinely should be spoken about as one of the best midfielders in the world.

Bit stunned at how good he is. Wow what a player.

[Fromola]

Their depth is no better than ours, they just keep players fit.

[Tonyh8su]

Spot on but pointing out the obvious. It's been well documented for years now that Arsenal are without a prolific number 9.

Yes but will Spurs try

[deano2727]

Yes but will Spurs try

Depends if they have a shot at 4th or not you'd imagine. They'll need to beat us at Anfield and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge before that.

[Fromola]

Even if we'd won the last two games it'd be looking hopeless tonight. Today was the best chance of Arsenal dropping points '(United and Everton in their last 3 who would throw the game) and along with Spurs away the best chance of City.

[Fromola]

Villa have to get the points as well and they've got two semi finals to play before their next two games.

[zero zero]

We let one slip by not getting him in to replace Firmino. It would have been a seamless transition. Instead we have a forward who can't trap a ball, presses ineffectively and lacks a football brain.

His goal and assist numbers would have been similar to what Nunez is putting up but we would have an actual footballer along with the numbers.

He's incredible. We so need that.

Nunez would have been looking to aim for the keepers noggin in that situation.

These are from today. We are not playing today.

Why slag off our players in this thread?

There's a fair chance Spurs have nothing to play for there. They have Chelsea and us both away as their next two. If they get two points or less from those fixtures, there's almost no chance they're catching Villa.

And if they have nothing to play for, then there is no chance they're lifting a finger to help Arsenal.

[The North Bank]

Spurs fans will burn the stadium down if they beat city. City will win their games, only fulham might give them a game but they look on the beach.

[MD1990]

spurs may have little chance of top 4 by the time they play city
no chance they get anything if so

Bournemouth at home for Arsenal tougher than people think as well

Lol as if spurs can get anything from that game the spurs fans in the stadium will be supporting City.

[Caligula?]

Spurs aren't getting anything against City even if top four was on the line.

[Samie]

Depends if they have a shot at 4th or not you'd imagine. They'll need to beat us at Anfield and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge before that.

They don't. 14 ponits behind us with a goal diffrence they are not making up. 

[red mongoose]

Erling's dad looks normal. I wonder if their mailman was a pigman.

[Tonyh8su]

Alan Smith's bitter commentary over the replay of Haaland's goal was genuinely hilarious there, fair play. Have to grip onto the small wins in football these last few weeks.

[Fromola]

At least if City and/or Arsenal win out the blues can shut up with their 'we cost you the league' shouts.

You can see Villa beating us if they need to.

Spurs game is last midweek so they will know the score they should try but they prob wont.

[Andar]

Yeah you're missing a goalscorer. Jesus isn't good enough.

I actually think they are set with Havertz as the false 9. He has been a game changer for them since the change in January. Presses effectively from the front, immaculate first touch and link-up play is elite. He knits their attack perfectly. The best comparison to a Firmino you will see.

Sums up how lazy our recruitment had gotten that we didn't see his performances as a false 9 for Leverkusen, and sign him up as a long term replacement for Firmino.

If I was Arteta, I would be looking for the elite attacker down the left rather than in the 9 position. They need to find a Salah/Mane from the left who will chip in with 15+ league goals.

[deano2727]

They don't. 14 ponits behind us with a goal diffrence they are not making up. 

Maybe so, but they absolutely can overtake Villa.
