4 games without a goal another stalemate not a great surprise. Goodness knows how Newcastle United are still 7 points above the relegation places.

The unbeaten run is over! :o , Arsenal fans will be very happy about this. The record for most Premier League matches won in a row stays at 18 as a result of this.

 

By all accounts (I’ve not seen any games since I’ve been to the other side of the world) we’ve been leggy recently and rode our luck through games. All good things come to an end - we haven’t lost in 13 months in the league. What’s so surprising is it appears we got battered, that’s only happened a few times in 5 years since Klopp took over (one of them at Watford as well!). Oh well, least it means we can win the league at City now!

Would love wolves or Sheff United to get into the champions league!

United's 'amazing' 2 game PL winning streak comes to an end!

 

So close to winning 3 Premier League games in a row for the 1st time since OGS signed his permanent contract last March.

The most remarkable thing was Liverpool even having another shot at 19 wins in a row, which itself is pretty inconceivable. And then to fall short again on such an attempt! It's crazy really, even last season they only lost to City away. First time they've lost a match to a team outside the big 6 in over 2 years.
Yeh having one defeat a season is unbelievable and we will likely only win one title from it. Shows that stats don't mean much unless you win the trophy.

To be honest it's the media that hype these things up, it's possible to be undefeated in a season and not win the league. I read that Perugia were once unbeaten in a Serie A season but still finished in 2nd place behind AC Milan. If Arsenal's invincibles didn't win the league that season then them being undefeated wouldn't have gone down in history the way that it has. Liverpool will still win the league this season so losing the unbeaten record wont really matter by the end of this season though you wouldn't have guessed by seeing Arsenal fans on Twitter over the weekend.

 

 

Watford will probably gain momentum from their win which could carry them towards safety. They will have a lot of belief in the remaining games that they have left.

I take it that was Miguel Delaney's feed you seen? Yes and as he said a lot of Arsenal fans would rather have sacrificed one defeat in the league to beat Chelsea in the champions league quarter final game.

I don't know if was that person's feed but it was something I saw all over twitter last Saturday. I did also hear an Arsenal fan saying that he would rather that Arsenal won the Champions League instead of winning the Premier League unbeaten.

 

 

 

On the subject of the Manchester derby I thought we played very well today, our defence was excellent throughout the match and Wan-Bissaka was man of the match in my opinion. He nullified Raheem Sterling and made him ineffective whilst making several blocks and clearances. Ederson had a shocker today as well.

Yeh United were brillant today - kept it tight at the back and although had a lot less of the ball were much better with it. Sign of the challengers next season coming through perhaps?
Sometimes you legit need to give managers time! Ole’s signings have been pretty superb so far

I think next season might be too soon to challenge for the league as we are still far behind Liverpool in quality of squad but if we can get more depth in our squad and get another striker to help Rashford and Martial then we should be in the top 4 at least. Ighalo has done well so far but he is only on loan until the end of the season and we would need a striker who can score at least 20 goals in a league season to challenge for the title.

United are miles away still, admittedly I’ve not seen any games for week but Ole has you playing pure percentage counter attack football. At times it comes off and other times it doesn’t. Still think Man Utd and Chelsea are well behind the likes of City and Liverpool in terms of consistency.

Leicester City comfortably beating Aston Villa 4-0 to gain some revenge for their League Cup semi-final defeat to them.

On-loan midfielder Danny Drinkwater's future at Aston Villa is in doubt after a training ground incident on Tuesday.

 

Drinkwater was sent home by manager Dean Smith after clashing with team-mate Jota.

 

The 30-year-old midfielder is on loan at Villa Park from Chelsea for the rest of the season having spent the first half of the campaign at Burnley.

 

Jota, theres a player that should get a lot more game time for them.

Danny Drinkwater hope he is all right in himself following bring sent home from training at Villa for an 'altercation' with a teammate today.

 

This following his 'altercation' in a Manchester nightclub and subsequent termination of his loan at Burnley earlier this season.
