The Narrative is saying the Man Utd/Arsenal match will determine our CL place. I'm sure that Southampton fans appreciate being written off as an easy three points for Liverpool...
It's amazing really. Even if Southampton were a much worse side they'd still have a great chance against Liverpool. As much as they were praised in the first half of the season, they've been rubbish for most of the second half of it and barely had any criticism.
Absolute ****e!! Smalling & Jones are dreadful - managing to make Arsenal's pisspoor attack look occasionally dangerous. Xhaka is one of the most brain-dead players I have seen at this level. And on that note, apparently deliberate handball is no longer a booking!!
2 poor teams playing poorly so far. Still entertaining though, like a tramp arguing with a duck over a piece of bread.
Arsenal 2 v 0 United How ****e are United! Mourhino has become the new David Moyes! Still, with that loss, that now means that only City can finish above us, and only if we lose all of our remaining three matches. I do hope our lads aren't going to bottle it like they did last season, which saw us go from title contenders to finishing 3rd, right at the death.
That's why I said it To be fair, we could draw one and still finish below them, especially if they win a few more 5-0.
I get the feeling we'll dig deep one last time to beat United and secure 2nd, hit the 80 point barrier and put our feet up for the final 2 games of the season. I certainly wouldn't begrudge it and maybe we'd see more of the fringe players getting some game time.
I really really want us to remain unbeaten at the Lane this season. It would be a memorable and fitting farewell to the old girl. COYS
Sorry lads, I'd just been looking at the SSN league tables and wrote down what I'd worked out! Hiag, your post was made as I was typing mine! So to clarify, we can't finish lower than 3rd and city are the only team who can finish above us. Can't believe no ones mentioned this yet.
