trabuch Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 Arsenal are so inconsistent. Even if they win this they're still likely to get beaten by West Brom at home - I just don't think they have the fight. That's why I am not at all unhappy if they win today.

americanfox Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 He doesn't want them to win, he wants them to equalise (From the 70th minute). Personally a draw is the best result for us, an Arsenal win, gives them a glimmer of hope still, brings them back into it, a draw keeps them at arms length and means we could go 5 points clear tonight. Arsenal win, draw, Spuds win. It's about possible points. The only gaps that matter are from 1st to 2nd and 1st to 4th. Who cares how Arsenal and Spurs go between them. Arsenal win puts both teams six points back if we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo Arsenal win means we will maintain an arms length lead over Spurs regardless of what we do at Watford... it all doesn't matter if we win at Watford though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katieakita Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 Who is this clown on BT sport "Tottenham have a habit of conceding the first goal" then names two 1-0 defeats no expert but normally in a 1-0 defeat you concede the first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristianity77 Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 An Arsenal win is the best result provided we win tonight. A Draw here is best if we don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares how Arsenal and Spurs go between them. Arsenal win puts both teams six points back if we win. True, but on the other hand, being chased down by 2 teams is more difficult than 1. A draw effectively puts Arsenal out of the title race, but also still 5 points ahead of Spuds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester Dontlie Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 Coquelin? I think it's offending to N'Golo to mention them both in the same sentence. Deschamps would be insane to prefer him over Kante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 why you want spurs to win? if they lose we can go 6 points clear tonight and then it really is in our hands? also eliminates 2 games at the end of the season. ****ing come on arsenal i say. I don't want Spurs to win, it's my least favourite result, my preference is in this order: Draw Arsenal win Spurs win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A draw effectively puts Arsenal out of the title race, but also still 5 points ahead of Spuds! Right, but on my bird's eye view, I don't think it matters that we are being chased down by # number of teams. 2nd is no different than 3rd, so for me it's all about how big the gap is the 2nd and 4th. This all assumes we win, which is no given. But hopefully we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxes_rule1978 Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 Arsenal win gives us a chance of having the biggest gap between us and second, but a draw does mean it keeps Arsenal even further back... it is a tough one... anyway Arsenal one up means that the worst possible result is looking increasingly unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a professional gambler and if take the expected odds per match according to me our chances of winning the title by the end of this match will be: Tottenham win 28% Arsenal win 32% Draw 35% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facecloth Posted 5 March 2016 Share Posted 5 March 2016 What is it with these Spurs fans calling them 'Woolwich' it's cringey af Woolwich, in south London, is the original home of Arsenal before they moved north of the river. They used to be called Woolwich Arsenal. Spurs obviously hate Arsenal for moving on to their patch and see themselves as the only true north London team.

And the fact they've won almost double the trophies must hurt because Spurs' rivals otherwise would be West Ham who've never won the league.
