    Here's a question. If Son had forearm smashed Fabinho, what colour card would the ref issued? What would the pundits be saying about it? Would it have appeared on MOTD?

    Would have been a red because the ref would have used var. Son would then miss the rest of the season.

    Nice try, RCL, but I raise your jinx and present you with a reverse jinx.

    We have not beaten you away in the league since 2014 (what a goal by Rosicky that was btw), we haven't kept a clean sheet in our last 7 matches, we aren't a particularly clinical side, we still have bozo moments defensively and this is going to be the most hostile, warlike atmosphere in a cauldron we'll have experienced for years. Not just because it's an NLD, but because of the repercussions it could have for both clubs.

    Our incentive is that we could secure CL qualification at your ground. The obvious issue is that you will be doing everything in your power to not let that happen, and those two lethal attackers you have certainly won't be going easy on our porous defence.

    I would absolutely take a draw without any hesitation, but I am begrudgingly anticipating a defeat.

    You have a habit of coming good in May while we have the habit of throwing stuff away in May. If we'd have played you at the proper time things would be different.

    I don’t really think it matters. You should still be expecting to beat us at home. The thought of Arsenal securing Champions League at your ground, in front of your fans, must curdle your blood, surely?

    Your players will know that and they will be going to any length possible to ensure we don’t win.

    We may possibly grab a draw, but there’s no way you will let us win on your own turf.

    You might not make it, yet. Could be a cold or two in the squad and they'll give you a bye.

    If it means we get to see Spurs fans crying all Summer (and beyond), then I wouldn't be against it :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    Yes, your club has always enjoyed undeserved success.
    No wonder you got run out of South London by a small group of women.

    Do you think the Arsenal goalie will drop the ball at Son's feet a couple of times? Just asking.

    I’m pretty sure you say this about every club that isn’t Spurs.

    Not bitter at all though, ey?

    THIS is the sort of comedy sour reaction that will make arsenal fans laugh over the summer if CL somehow happens :D

    Not remotely true. Just most of the top clubs in England! <laugh>

    Man Utd and Liverpool got caught match fixing and voted you into the top-flight.
    City and Chelsea (and now Newcastle) are run on blood money from dictators or their mates.
    Everton tried the Chelsea route and failed, as did you with the same person.
    West Ham bribed the Tories for a stadium, Wolves are owned by an agent and the Chinese state.
    Leicester paid off dictators and a military junta.
    Norwich are owned by a TV chef. Not sure what that means, but chuck it on the pile.

    It's quite a dirty and depressing division, isn't it?

    And I'm sure you'd react differently without it, of course.

    Are Arsenal fans preparing their Thursday excuses already? I thought we were supposed to be doing that.

    Depends how it gets brought about. If you smash us and we capitulate to Newcastle too then fair enough, you'll have deserved CL. If we beat you it will be very satisfying but will make the last two games of the season dead rubbers for both of us and a bit of a damp squib end to a close season. If we draw it continues the tension as I can see us easily not winning at Newcastle and your GD makes anything but a home win against Everton very dangerous and we've seen how naff we can be. We play down to the opposition and let all teams have a chance.

    But possibly the biggest s**thousing opportunity for the most comedy value will be if you smash us and your two other remaining games, but we still somehow stumble over the line and still get CL with some very dodgy decisions and performances against Newcastle and Everton, because that would probably bring lots of sour comments from Spurs fans which Arsenal fans would find funny.

    Just so we're clear here.

    You despise Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Newcastle, Everton, West Ham, Leicester, Wolves and Norwich. That's over half the division! <laugh>

    Are you sure you don't have any problems with the other clubs you didn't list? I'm sure you'd find some if you haven't already.

    You may as well just say you hate every club that isn't Spurs at this point.
