Bonnie Blue salivating at such a punishment.

The way Arsenal are playing on the pitch, and you look at the remaining fixtures, it doesn’t fill me with confidence. What does fill me with confidence is the fact we have a decent lead gap and Manchester City have shown they can drop points.

This title race needs to hurry lol. April will be the defining month and should we go on to win it, think a lot will feel so much relaxed for the summer but should we bottle it, the psychological impact on many will be insane. Sigh.

Liverpool lost the league cup final

Liverpool went out the FA Cup away to a championship team.

They went out the champions league and lost the league cup final in the same week. Responded with a home league win against Everton. We need to be doing the response in the league game next Saturday.

IMO, going out of the FA Cup sucks but is likely to improve our chances of winning the league if anything.

People get way too caught up in psychological narratives about bottling, etc. We started 2-3 members of our best 11 and lost a match to go out of a competition that is a very very very distant third on the priority list.

If our best players (most of whom didn’t even play or made minor sub appearances) are shook by this game mentally, they’re not top level players.

The rotation bit should be highlighted more because out of the 11 that has started the most this season, only Gabriel started.

No Raya, Timber, Rice, Eze, Saka and Trossard.
Saliba, Zubi, Gyokeres and Calafiori were only fit to come off the bench.

We didn’t even play particularly bad(we qualify 9 times out of 10 with the chances we created) but the biggest issue today was cohesion. And that’s often the risk of heavy rotation.

City got knocked out by Southampton in the QFs of the League Cup before winning the treble.

Personally, I’m more alarmed by the fitness of our starters more than anything. You’d hope everyone is fit by the time we go to the Etihad.

If we somehow fuck this up and City end up with a domestic treble, I may have to just bin off football.

I think I’m going to have a complete mental breakdow if we bottle the league and finish the season with no trophies.

There is no way even bottlers as big as Arsenal would bottle the league from here

Don’t tempt it. If anybody can, we can.

I think we all will, but I’m confident on the league still. We must win next week against Bournemouth though and then just need to make sure we don’t lose at City. The home games will be key.

I’m confident in the league.

But fucking wake up

Well, clearly a lot of people think we will else they wouldn’t react this way after every bad result.
We haven’t even dropped points in the PL and there’s a severe headloss already. :rofl:

Yep. It will be all sunny and roses again after we win against Sporting and Bournemouth lol

where was that Title predictor/scenario builder tool we were playing with a few weeks ago…

Need to bring that back to restore the peace it seems.

You don’t need it, the next two PL games for both will decide where the PL goes imo.

It would be annoying because their form got a lot better after signing Semenyo and Guehi, which for a club supposedly getting a massive points reduction is ridiculous.
