Brilliant article. One game a season makes If Arsenal beat man city you will be predicting the league title
Not really mate. We have seen it all before. A collapse late int he season is likely. Their confidence will go. Also only 7 points clear of us and the chavs
To be fair 7 points if a hell of alot of points to claw back with only 12 games left. I think it's possible their confidence could be dented, I also think the distraction of the 'Arry for England calls could have an impact, but I really do think they've done enough already. One weekend goes against us (Arsenal lose and Tottenham win) and it's a 10 point gap and a game less to do it in.....
Also spuds last 9 games are all vs bottom half sides (more or less). BUT spuds could go into tail spin if they lose the next 3 games too....
Playing teams fighting to stay up or fighting against being dragged into a relegation fight is tough. Those last 9 games will not be easy.
No games are easy but its a myth that playing against bottom sides late is hard to do. Its better to play them then imo. They are usually alot harder early in the season when they dont realise how bad they are and when they have fit players. I think that myth has survived from when there was less money in the game like in the mid 90's and before. Then it was hard to play these teams because everyone was more even and because teams didnt play as good football. So battling and wanting to win mattered alot more. Having said that I still think spuds will go into a tail spin after these next 3 games. Then I think they will lose alot of their last 9 even if they are against poor sides. Nobody in the premier league is a walk over.
Typical fickle Arsenal fan's. Booing the players off one week and making wild prediction's of finishing third the next week.
7 points is 2 games, like 10 points was only 3 games, its a gap that only takes 2 slip ups to make up
What, like your fickle fans who Redknapp slated during an interview claiming they've had more great nights down here than bad since I've been here in response to boos when you lost a game.
Nope, rivalry or no rivalry, the spuds give us NO RESPECT from what I see, as for well behaved, are you kidding me? They have been out of control this season, their chants against Wenger summed it up, as if they can ever speak negatively about Wenger, they can't even hold a candle to Wenger and they want to try and belittle him? What the f--k have their club done compared to Wenger? Maybe you have bumped into some Spurs fans who do this banter in a nice laughing way etc, but the Spurs fans I have seen have been the furthest thing from that, they have been bitter, angry, and you name it. I'm talking about the type of Spurs fans who actually BURN Arsenal jersey's, while the rest start cheering etc.
