Ah good, up the Arse!
Who here wants Liverpool to beat Arsenal on Wednesday? Poll added!
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
Can't see us making up the points even if they lose.
There's a part of me also that thinks that squeezing top 4 will just paper over the cracks.

Arsenal are probably my second least favourite team after Pool so this is harder than usual but still, has to be Arsenal win.
Hoping to see some Top Red opinions on the "right answer."
Aint over till its over.

Does anyone really think Arsenal can get a point there? They tend to get whalloped don't they?
I actually fancy they can get something. They are in good form and look organised. Asi arsenals strengths are in areas where Liverpool show weaknesses. Martinelli and Saka could really hurt Liverpool on the break getting in behind the attacking full backs.
Draw.
I could never countenance the words 'Liverpool' and 'win' in the same sentence.
If it could be rephrased to something about Arsenal losing, that would be much each to accept.

People who don't select option#4 are not real fans.
3-1 to Pool I think.
We aren’t consistent enough for top four so all Arsenal losing does is serve 3 points towards Liverpool’s title challenge. Hope Arsenal do them.
Looks like we’ve got Liverpool Tuesday 19th 8:00pm, the Arsenal 4 days later on Saturday 23rd at 12:30pm..
A few goals by Diaz and odegard would suit me just fine
Why would you want Arsenal to win rather than, say, a giant chasm opening up on the pitch , swallowing both teams? I don't get it.
If it means us having a better chance of a top 4 finish then yes we should all want liverpool to beat them and then all hope that they slip up against another team.
We won't even make top 4 even if Arsenal lose.
A draw. We peg both back a bit.
Regardless of the result, our inconsistency and general awfulness means we wont get top 4. Besides, next seasons rebuild needs to happen away from the spotlight of the Champions League. It'll be a blessing in disguise...
That would be a separate question.
Still think City will stuff them when they meet so yes considering Arsenal should be the favorite to get 4th. It's still a fair amount of fixtures left, Arsenal isn't the only opponent that can take points from the scouse during their run in.
A fair and rational comment. City have cheated their way to their current position through completely false sponsorship deals and so their success doesn't really count as far as I'm concerned. It is hollow and meaningless which is exactly why I want them to win it over Liverpool.
I could care less about Liverpool, we need to get 4th badly, so yes, I hope they smash Arsenal and completely demoralize them.
I'd much rather miss out on top 4 than suffer a Liverpool title win and it's not even close.
I will be genuinely upset if Liverpool match us on number 20 given they have won double (or 3 more) champions league titles than us. Having the most league titles is crucial.
I'd rather city win another 6 on the bouncy than the scouser win another. Hopefully we can win one before they next do.

Thursday night European football, followed by 2pm Sunday kick offs has become synonymous with depression (football wise at least) for me.
Unfortunately to duck it and that other pony competition they’ve introduced we really have to lose a lot of games between now and may. Not sure which is preferable.
It wouldn’t be so bad if we just used the Europa league for blooding the youth/reserves but every manager we’ve had has taken some footballing purist attitude to it and actually tries to win the fecking thing.
Eugh, no more, please just make it stop.
Top 4 was over the minute the January transfer window shut. This result makes no difference in that regard to us. Arsenal win.
Given as though wanting Liverpool to lose is handing City the title its hardly good either way.
May feel differently if for example it was Liverpool and Leicester fighting for the title, where Leicester winning the title is alot more preferable but city winning it over Liverpool is only slightly preferable and certainly not more preferable than us being in the CL next season and not being in the god awful europa league and the nonsense that is the conference league .
Come on Gooners.
Paper over the cracks by finishing top 4?
a confusing statement.
it’s not like we have a crap manager in charge and he will keep his job if we finish top 4.
also it’s not like we have players that we want to keep who will stay with us if we finish top 4.
finishing top 4 won’t paper over the cracks, it will cement the cracks and be a solid foundation to build on for the next manager and encourage top players to come to this club.
Oof! But I don't like either of em!
Praying Arsenal destroys them and their title hopes. Top four's not all that anyway.
I can't remember the last time we had a worthy RAWK goes into meltdown bump

Hence option#4
Top four isn't happening even if Arsenal lose, we fecked ourselves by dropping stupid points.
Arsenal will still have two more games in hand and we basically can't drop anymore points, it's over.

I guess this means you want City to win everything and you are okay with that.
What I am concerned about is getting into the Europa League and all the travelling to play so many games.
Top 4 is not going to happen I feel though.

We won’t catch Arsenal, regardless of this result. They are playing much better and more consistently than us, so may as well hope they win and put a dent in the rat munching feckers title hopes.
Given the choice between City & Liverpool winning the league yeah, I’ll take City every time like any normal United fan.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Exactly why I’m happy for City to win it.
