Gustavo Fringed Sleeves Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 BTW, Manchester United - Crystal Palace in the FA Cup Final.I'd like to see CP lift the trophy despite Pardew. I like LVG, but winning this wouldn't save him anyway, so there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baxus Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I blame Arsenal's inability to score on the fact that I brought Sanchez to my fantasy team and even handed him the captaincy for this gameweek. You poor souls never stood a chance against such a jinx... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeor Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Arsenal's inconsistency is just ridiculous considering the talent at our disposal and the fact that most of the team have actually been together and fairly settled. Even the relative newcomers (Elneny, Iwobi) have been brilliant and others like Welbeck integrated pretty well. There really is no excuse for inconsistency when you have such a talented squad that has been together. The more I think about it, it's the lack of a clinical striker that has really hurt us. We are consistent in creating chances - I can't remember a game this season where we didn't have some opportunities to score - it's just that we can't convert them. I reckon with one world-class striker we would have been in a position to win the league this year. People will talk about the mental fragility and the defence conceding soft goals and giving away leads, which is also true, but that doesn't have nearly as much an effect when you're confident in your ability to score another one afterwards. Plus, the defence overall has actually been quite good, and has only stood out as poor because of a few key games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, he's no Marcus Rashford... but he's good. Iwobi has been great, but he's generally not considered a goal scorer. He is more of a creator. He's fluffed some good opportunities in front of the goal the last two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorshach Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Okay. It goes against just about everything I believe in to laud Tony Pulis... But I am impressed with the spirit and work rate that West Brom showed here. They've got nothing to play for, away at Tottenham, but they don't give up, even after falling behind. Well done. Also, as long as Martinez remain, Leicester are champions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consigliere Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 That should be that. Credit to WBA for not sleepwalking through the game and taking the fight to Spurs in the 2nd half. I expect Leicester to be confirmed champions with two games to spare. I have a hard time seeing us breaking down that Leicester defence so I think that they will get at least a point. Even if they don't, I can't see Spurs beating Chelsea. Spurs have a horrendous record at Stamford Bridge and Chelsea ought to be quite motivated to sink the final nail in Spurs' title hopes.

Mexal Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Didn't take long to destroy one of the positives of Elneny. For a team that blows at scoring from outside of the box (mainly cause the only person who shoots from there is Ramsey and he sucks at it), it's amazing that the first thing we did is limit one of Elneny's strengths. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lykos Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 ^LOL! I don't know who to cheer for tonight after Simeone's latest antics. Also I really hope that Mikhi doesn't go to Chelsea (Marin and Schürrle can tell you that nothing good comes of that) and Hummels doesn't move to Bayern. It's bad enough that Gündogan will move to City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
