There is no Nou Camp next season. Barcelona are playing elsewhere.

Is my maths correct here? If we beat Leeds on Saturday, and somehow Leicester beat Liverpool on Monday, would we then only need a draw against Brighton on the Thursday?

This. If we get Champions League they may be able to justify a bigger deal. There is apparently 2 offers on the table, one maybe on the conditions of Champions League football. It may also be down to waiting for the Fun88 deal to officially end.

Aye, if Forest don’t win, then it stays as it is.

Fucking hell, I went in the kitchens to do the dishes and it’s 3-0.

I’m not saying that I want Everton to win, I’m just saying if they do win then it could be a positive for us.

Dropped points for Brighton and we know that 7 points is enough before we go into our game with them. That obviously reduces to 4 points if we beats Leeds. It could also mean that they might have to come out more as well, as dropping points may put their European chances into question, and they would need a win against us and may have to come out and attack us, which could play into our hands.

Everyone in the relegation battle are giving everyone else a chance to get out of it. ’After you’ ’No after you’ ’Go on, I insist’

It’s not, it’s been changed to the Saturday because of this very reason.

The penalty call is hard to take because he clearly moved his hand towards where the ball was going. His intention was to block it with his hand, before his secondary reaction of ‘I can’t touch it with my hand’ kicks in. So the intent was there. Like I say, I honestly think it would have been given the other way around, and we actually had it given against us against Brentford recently.

I honestly think we’ll go into the Leicester game knowing that either a draw or at worst, a win will guarantee Champions League football, that is assuming Liverpool don’t slip up between now and then.

You would think West Ham can now concentrate on winning the Conference League now.

Like I said, as much as we were poor, on the balance of it was draw then no one could have any complaints. We had chances, they did. As it happens neither team scored form their chances, as I said a speculative effort that goes in once every so often, and an own goal won them the game with the referee assisting them. We went to their place when they were on fire and got a draw. They are nothing special, today could have went either way. They are weak mentally, you may say they were good mentally today, but a month ago these had the title won, they fucked up and handed the title back to City, saying they are mentally strong after they have already shot themselves in both feet is nothing. There is no pressure on them now, everyone expects them to lose the title. Next year when the teams I mentioned come back, and when ourselves come back will be a different story. If we get into the Champions League, we’ll be expected to be in some sort of title battle next season, even if we are the outsider. These are going to fall away when the other teams build, they will be battling it with those wanting to upset the ‘top 7’ for the last European slot. They don’t have it in them. The players fucked the title chance over, a title chance they will never see again, a title chance where they should have won it. Even in the Europa League, they were expected to go on and win it, they had the advantage at home, and then handed it over to Sporting Lisbon. Look at their fans man, you think next season when they are looking at a battle for the top 4 their fans won’t turn on Arteta? Just like Man Utd, they’ll probably never win a title for 10-20 years. Their players are too weak, and their fan base are too weak to give a manager any time to build something.

I don’t think they have been as good as people say they have been. A 25 yard speculative effort that goes in 1/25, and an own goal has given them the win. The referee has let them get away with everything, and effectively killed any momentum that we have ever achieved during the match. They have capitalised on a season when Spurs, Liverpool, and Chelsea have been abnormally poor. Once they go again and once we build again, these fuckers will be back to struggling to get a Europa League spot.

I was on the training coming back from a gig this morning and the train had loads of Arsenal fans on. One of them was saying to another that he doesn’t want us to get the Champions League because of the Saudis. This coming from someone who supports a club who’s stadium is sponsored by Emirates, and their sleeve sponsor is from the government who is in the process of buying people off our government. Fuck them, I hope City give them hope and do an Aguero on the fuckers.

Fucking referee man. Fuck being professional, call these fucking cunts out. They have zero respect for the players out there, and zero respect for the game.

Yes, but haven’t got that all game and we’re never getting it.

Hope we take out their keys players for a long period of time if we do so.

Good fortune Neville? They have had the ref giving them the fucking game man.

Fucking jammy fucks.

Can someone actually punch both Xhaka, and Jesus and give them something to actually cry about?

Surely the Arsenal players are now injured and need to be taken off?

It wasn’t, but if it was at the other end they would have given it, and that same one that was given against us vs Brentford has not been repaid which I thought was suppose to happen?

Fucking hell, Gordon would cause a red card if he came on in this game, either for them or for himself.

Aye, that goal changed it because at that point Arsenal have the win they need to keep their title chance alive. At 0-0 they were much more open and chasing the win more. We have still opened them up at 1-0 though, there is a goal in this for us and if we get to 1-1, I think we’ll see out the draw.
