Only thing I can really remember us doing in first half was Murphy hitting the post. I’m the 2nd half isak hit the post but martinelli hit the bar and of course they got the 2nd goal you can post any stats you want arsenal deserved to win and it was done by 72 mins Arsenal deserve to win- correct. Willock missed the best chance of the first half- incorrect. None of this is any indicator of our likelihood of finishing top 4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 1 minute ago, ilikenewcastle said: Same. Missing out in 11/12 didn't feel too bad (regardless of what later happened to Spurs) as we were rarely in the top 4 towards the end of the season and our run in was hard. To miss out on top 4 this season having led by 9 points with 5 to go would be worse than losing the cup final for me. I don't even think I'd be gutted if we missed out. We should do it, but if we miss out it's only because we're not as good as Liverpool which is pretty obvious anyway. 5th is still a season of over-achievement. 3rd or 4th is still more likely though and is just incredible.

Ketsbaia Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Doom-mongers? The confidence has been a bit OTT recently so adding a more level-headed opinion (about Leeds/Leicester not being guaranteed wins, Brighton are good, hey maybe we won't beat 2nd-placed Arsenal etc) gets labelled as an attention-seeking wetting of beds. It's called not having your head in the clouds. I found those 97% predictions from Opta/FiveThirtyEight a bit ludicrous. 60/40 more like. But hey, let's hope Liverpool slip-up and we reach the promised land. That'd be incredible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) Bit of extra pressure on the Leeds game but still need 6 or 7 points. We should get them, HTL. Edited May 7, 2023 by HaydnNUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Butcher Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Would 100% ruin the season if we finish 5th. Mental to suggest otherwise imo. Losing the final and then bottling 4th from this position would be really hard to take. Not end of the World, but it would be really fucking hurt.

Good news is we generally respond quite well to a defeat. I’m down Leeds next week so fingers crossed. A nine point lead has been cut to three points with a game in hand.

I was specifically replying to someone saying we could have won that game. It’s delusional Odegaard scored a legit 1% or 1 out of 100 shot and the other was an own goal. Both sides had decent chances but we had higher xG and were definitely unlucky to lose that never mind lose that 0-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Think we'll bounce back well from the game tbh. We lost to a better team but still could've won despite not playing particularly well. The squad will still be confident. Still think we'll get top 4 and my opinion of that hasn't been swayed by the last week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penalty shout wasn’t a penalty, it was basically a shot from distance easily blocked. The point at no point did we deserve to win the game. Silly to say otherwise I would agree we didn't play particularly well at times and I think they were very good. But here's the top 5 chances of the game by xG: 1. Odegaard at the end of the half 2. Schar's header 3. Saka's one on one 4. Isak off the post 5. Willock's first half chance To say they could have scored four or five is extreme (though sure, they could have had they been both extraordinarily clinical and fortunate), but to completely ignore our chances like we were never in the game is an incredibly negative view of what we just watched.
