Thats what happens when you play Maguire. He is shit. 2nd goal was a weird freak topspin off the shoulder. Tough one to save. 3rd goal. Theres a reason De Gea never comes off his line. Sevilla had a perfectly good goal disallowed by VAR too. I mean FFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punksnotdead Posted April 21, 2023 Report Share Posted April 21, 2023 Another draw for the Arse, this time against the bottom team. Looking like they need to beat city to have any chance now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Amazing game for the neutral last night but must be horrible for Arsenal fans. Always suspected that they might fall just short, especially over the last few weeks. You get the feeling this was their best chance as there’s no way some of the other top teams can be as bad next season as they have this.

Arsenal only route to the title was playing the same players every week and hope they get through. City have both the depth and that bit more quality.

We have a record of messing up the play offs so would have no confidence if we don’t get the job done. I’m not blind to the fact we are where we are in the league because of money. The fact we haven’t won the league on a points total that would win every season shows there are still no guarantees. I have supported Wrexham for 35 years and this is the first title we have won. Papa Johns trophy here we come. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punksnotdead Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 Can't believe we finally won a penalty shoot-out! Feels like the first one since Champions league vs Chelsea! Can't see us beating city in the final though. Cup final in June - WTF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlierc Posted April 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 I was away over the weekend so didn't see the Newcastle v Spurs game live but it was genuinely something for a friend checking a live score app and seemingly every time we looked Newcastle had another goal. That opening 20 minutes or so is crazy - think Man City did that to Watford in 2019 and that is the only other time a 5-0 lead has been run up that quickly in the PL era. It's kinda crazy, and the fact Spurs have immediately fired Stellini for presiding over that hints that they have pretty much broken down.

MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 I can't believe Chelsea brought Lampard back. Must be one of the worst managers in the modern league era considering who's at his disposal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming back from 3-0 down to equalise is at least something. Conceding to make it 4-3 straight away also feels like a very Spurs thing to do. I mean it's an improvement on their 6-1 mauling by Newcastle last weekend, but it still isn't exactly enough to stop everyone else mocking them.

To me it was a complete bottle match, spurs bottled it for 30 minutes, then Liverpool for 60 minutes then spurs spursed it up in the end. Great for a neutral though!

Being realistic Newcastle need 2 wins and a draw max, united just need to win there 3 home games. Liverpool are the only challenge for top 4, they are a little to far back and to few games left to make it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool do play twice before we do next so there is an opportunity for them to eat up some of the gap, but if we can beat Leeds, Leicester and Chelsea, it should touch-wood be enough. Arsenal and Brighton are the two I'm slightly more worried about in our run-in, but it's in our hands and as long as we got our shit side out at Villa, it should be OK. I think if Liverpool had started this run of recent form after the 7-0 rather than seemingly losing their way for a few weeks after, it might be more interesting.

Be interesting what happens at Newcastle in the summer, as you will be in Europe and you have relied on a smaller squad and been lucky in the defensive positions. Personally think both Uniteds have got lucky this season, with the troubles at liverpool and chelsea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get over that, but when people question the integrity of the officials, to me it’s a step too far.
