Spurs are gonna throw that game so hard that even Ledley Kings back will twinge.
Premier League Gameweek 34-35

Like your disallowed goal yesterday, it's one of those annoying decisions that's sometimes given and sometimes not.
Yet it keeps getting pointed out that Spurs have had 2 weeks off to get themselves organised for this game.
Arsenal getting everything off the refs and VAR again.
Will be interesting to see what happens if Spurs get a goal. I can see Arsenal getting carried away and already looking at the next fixture before this one is done.
Just think City have that mental block there in the league and Spurs will be weird and turn up.
Had we won yesterday, we could have caught up with Spurs for fifth place
We’d still be 4 points behind. And we’d still need to continue winning in our last 4 games. Where we face tougher opponents than Burnley.
The sad reality is that we knew Spurs would drop points as they had a tough run-in. Yet we haven’t acted in getting rid of ETH earlier in the season to give us a chance to catch them.
That’s a hell of a call. Hope you’re right
I don’t see Arsenal conceding 3 goals here.
I still think it's more likely that we'll turn up against Arsenal and draw 3-3 or something.
Not being in the Champions League doesn't bother me. Don't know why are so hung about it. We struggle against the likes of Burnley and Coventry so we can forget about Europe's elite.
The attracting players is a load of nonsense anyway because we piss away money on rubbish regardless of Champions League qualification

Just throwing this out there - but I reckon the fact they’ve had Saliba and Gabriel fit the entire season with Rice sitting in front of them may also be a factor. That’s just a hunch though - there is absolutely zero evidence to suggest Arsenal are a far inferior team without Saliba…well apart from their form completely collapsing last year without him. Maybe football isn’t chess and player quality does actually matter then? Who knew.
Ange Postecoglou side aren't hard to score against and he shouldn't be in the conversation for any team that has plans to challenge for major honours.
People forget that when Arteta first took over Arsenal they were an extremely defensive team with Aubameyang upfront who was in the form of his life. He's just gone back to his MO, with a much better team and hard to defend set piece routines. They score so many goals not from being great going forward, but once they get a goal infront they can just pick teams off at will. Extremely similar to our early Mourinho days, but maybe without as talented players and more workhorses.
Obviously the squad Arteta has helps him massively, but credit to him for his big game 442. If they do win the league everyone will be playing it next season.
I'll like to see if anyone still thinks Robert De Zebri is a good manager.
Eh, wasn't that handball by white? Went to take FK twice then grabbed it and moved it to pass it a different direction?
I'm with you. I'd feel more comfortable if Arsenal were just about winning games, giving their fans a lot of nervy moments. Not this, just sauntering (probably) to the title with comfortable wins.
Thought that was going to be 4-0.
Havertz has been good for Arsenal. Who would've thought.
Unal has given Bournemouth a 2-0 lead. On target for largest point total in their PL history.
Iraola has done very well to do that considering it took until the 10th march day to win a game.
fecking Spurs, can't trust them to do anything. As per usual.
Has a Japanese player won the PL before? I don't think so.
Kagawa. 12-13.
Probably? I'd back City to win their remaining matches.
Yes. Okazaki.
Yeah.
I'm saying that it's part of their tactics to dive in certain areas and at certain points. Not just individual decisions.
Ah with Leicester. Good one. No special reason to root for Tomiyasu then.
I do. You’d have to be quite blinkered to ignore all the good work he’s done. Brighton have a massive injury crisis during a season where they’ve sold their midfield and rarely had the first choice forwards available. Currently relative to their previous season, they are missing Caicedo, Macallister, Mitoma, Ferguson, Estupinan from the top of my head. He may be a good manager but you can’t expect all these situations to not have an impact.
If there were given awards for manager of the 2nd half of the season... probably still Arteta but Iraola would be up there. They play good football too.
Arteta has really turned Havertz into a footballer
There is never a reason to root for Arsenal players
This. We need United to show up vs Arsenal and not roll over like Spurs have done.
Why do Tottenham even exist?
Whatever happened to Brighton and their so called hipster manager
They are going to finish bottom half now

Remember when Arsenal were bad and Arteta somehow avoided the chop?
Martinelli coming on for Trossard.
