Koscielny would be an upgrade on Holding. Le Hair, Alexis, Santi and Ramsay off the bench as a Plan B. Beyond that... 

We're due for a win. COYG

If someone told me back in July that we'd have a "win this one and you probably in the League" match v City the last week in April, I wouldn't have believed them.  Yet here we here. 

Come On, You Gunners. Lets. Fucking. Go.

Maybe moving benching Holding, moving Benny to CB, and Tierney at RB wasn't a crazy idea after all.

He was clearly offsides on that 2nd goal. Not sure what the point of reviews are.

City had 3 (THREE!!) Argentines in that starting lineup.

And yet somehow they lost. Weird.

Last win in the past month came on Ted Lasso. @ Newcastle not looking good, given our current form.

We let an eight-point lead slip late in 2003.  Then won the title in 2004.  Need to keep adding key pieces, figure out the April swoon, and do it again.

We need to add some quality depth.  The squad has to be gassed, little real rotation this season.  Not to mention key injuries.  Still a great foundation to build upon.  

You’d think the past 10+ years of Texas football would have prepared and numbed me to crushing disappointment. But no.

1000% Agree with all, esp the last sentence. 

This season is a lot like last when we couldn’t close it out. We just don’t have the depth to rest key starters when we should or when they’re in bad form. By the 30th game, everyone is gassed.

City play Fulham tomorrow.

Arsenal v. Chelsea on Tues.

Maybe not being top of the table will be change the mindset.

We can only hope; April was a horrid month. 

Bournemouth 4-1 Southampton. Bad result looking worse. Four points dropped to the bottom club, another three lost to Everton. Those seven points are looming large.

Delete post, ban user. S’ton lost to Newcastle not Bournemouth. 

 But the point about drawing twice vs the bottom club holds.

Where the fucking fuck was this the past two weeks?!

Lets fucking go, you Gunners

Chelsea is really really really in a bad way.

Hopefully this slumpbuster busted the slump, because we're gonna need some good vibes to get a result at Newcastle.

Can Big Sam get a "new manager bounce" at City, three days after they play Leeds and three days before they play Madrid?

I was afraid Chelsea was going to use us a slumpbuster.  The lineup tweaks were good.  Let’s build from here 

We still lack the ability to just stomp on the throat of the opponent without remorse when they're down.  Until we can do that, I don't see how we overtake city next season.

Does MC have to lose twice for us to take it? They have us on GD.

We can finish with a maximum of 90 points. That would be level with The Invincibles, and more than the 1989, 1991, 1998, and 2002 champions. Ninety points would be a remarkable improvement over recent seasons, and the club had targeted next season (after another strong summer window) to push for the title anyway. It would suck harder than ousux to finish second after leading for so long, but we’re ahead of schedule.  
 

City can finish with 94 and are ahead on GD by 12; tonight would have been a chance to make a dent in that, but see the above about us not stomping on necks & ending matches remorselessly. They can draw twice and likely win a GE title on GD. We need to win out and have them drop at least five points. A draw and a loss would do it. 
 

It’s a long-shot but…

The seven we dropped vs Southampton and Everton are looming large. Nine if we factor in West Ham, too.

2nd half arsenal are going to have to play open at times because they can't risk a freak draw which crowns pep

Arsenal recency PTSD.  I was almost glad we didn't score right there before half given our recent 2nd half history with 2-0 leads.

Why isn’t Partey starting?  Not complaining just curious.  COYG 

His form had dropped in recent weeks. Tired? Maybe. Wake up call from Mik? More likely.

FIFY. Two-nil is our worst scoreline, and we haven’t played a good 2nd half in a while.

Suck it, Schar. Dude should have been on a red by now.

TBF, second was settled when City beat us. Even if we win out, I can’t see them dropping five points. We need to learn that “killer mentality” that y’all had and City have.
