Losing to Norwich, while Arsenal squeak the 1-0 win that sends Everton down while leapfrogging them into 4th.

Popular Post BenTheFox Posted 17 May 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 17 May 2022 I have far more disdain towards Newcastle than I do Chelsea or Man City. It's the whole 'proper club, they deserve it' thing that does it for me. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Fox Posted 17 May 2022 Share Posted 17 May 2022 I am hoping Liverpool smash them 7-0 tonight. Final day of the season would be amazing, Liverpool and Man City both going for the title. Spurs and Arsenal going for the last Champions League spot. Man Utd and West Ham going for Europa League/conference. Burnley, Leeds and Everton trying to survive. Probably only our game with nothing to play for, can’t remember the last final day with so much to play for. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 17 May 2022 Share Posted 17 May 2022 Cannot see a conte spurs bottling sunday The old spurs would have gone out there to steamroller Norwich (and anything could happen) but the Italian led spurs will play for a draw and know that they will keep a clean sheet if they are disciplined at the back. They are bound to score at some point and then the home team will have to commit more men forward and spurs can pick them off on the break.

Leicester_Loyal Posted 17 May 2022 Share Posted 17 May 2022 If Arsenal can get this close to the top 4 with this squad, then I'm somehow convincing myself we can next season, as long as we learn to defend set pieces. Obtaining 7th in this league is really not that hard either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's the top two, Chelsea a tier behind and then about ten or eleven teams in the next rung down. It makes for anyone can beat anyone but the overall quality is pretty poor now.

I hear people say this but I’m not convinced. Arsenal in the latter Wenger years regularly made the top 4 with much worse sides than their current one. This ManUtd side would probably be finishing 3rd or something 10-15 years ago. I think it’s more that a lot of mid-table sides have more financial clout to them and the gap between a lower half side or the mid-table and the worse performing of the traditional big clubs has shrunk a lot. It doesn’t feel anything like a shock when a decent mid-table side like Palace beat ManUtd or Arsenal now, but it still would when ManUtd and Arsenal had really mediocre sides of the Kleberson and Djemba-Djemba or Eboue and Bendtnar eras Edited 17 May 2022 by Sampson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In those seasons they had Ozil, Sanchez, Cazorla, Giroud etc. Much better than what they have now in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of those seasons after Van Persie left when they had the likes of Walcott, Bendtner and a past-it Podolski as their main strikers and the likes of Kieron Gibbs and Per Mertesaker as starting defenders with Sczechny (sp?) in goal. Feel like that side would be finishing around 7th or 8th in the PL right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you don't think that the fact they've been bereft of success the past couple of seasons and they had something to be slightly optimistic and get a little carried with themselves had anything to do with that? I'm sure if you matched up some of those teams there wouldn't be a lot in it, but this arsenal team doesn't have an RVP, nasri, Sanchez, Ozil .etc. You could argue the defence is probably the most improved but even then, they've got no one in that team that'll get them over the line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re a much worse side now Nah that was a few seasons later. Like here is their regular line-up for the 2013-14 season for example where they finished 4th, which is probably worse than our or West Ham’s side atm, Cazorla aside. I think this side would finish around 8th in the current league. Sczechny Gibbs Mertesaker Vermalen Sagna Arteta Wilshere Cazorla Walcott Podolski Oxlade-Chamberlain The bench/rotation options included the likes of Carl Jenkinson, Francis Coquelin and Gervinho.
