Premier League 2023/24: Our Race Is Run

[LookingForEric]

If I was saying Arsenal should win the league after 3 years of spending, yes it would be but I have not once ever claimed this.

Teams outspending City in recent years however is absolutely facts and there is nothing wrong with it, to compete this is what they should be doing. There are no extra points for spending less or whatever it is you guys are desperately fishing for.

For me City or Pep using the point about spending is disingenuous.

Don’t mean to jump in mid convo, but from my point of view if you’ve spent £1billion on getting your squad to a level to compete, and then every year after that you only need to top it up with £100M-150M windows every summer it’s disingenuous to say “well XYZ have spent more than us recently”.

Whilst it’s true, teams are having to spend more to catch up. On top of that inflation is a thing, what City spent to get to a level to compete every year would cost you around 2 billion now.

I swear to God I don't care

Arsenal won the money table too they are the best at spending money on the planet, ignore Pep.

I see us as a 1 in 10 shot so these Opta numbers are not far off how i see it. But even longshots do come in that is how probability and sports work

Currently we are one of the best at spending agreed

So close yet so far…

If someone had said this a couple of years ago you'd have thought they were insane. Actual goosebumps thinking that there's a slim chance we get presented with the Premier League trophy this weekend.

 

[Iwobeast]

Sp**s is getting a result tonight I can feel it in my bones

I think there’s one more twist or turn to come to make us all believe.

Wether that’s Sp**s drawing in the 90th minute (even if City get a last min winner) or West Ham going up against them early doors.

Cocky b@stards arent they!

I think city score equilizer in injury time.

I agree with her

Again, your jinxing won't work.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

This is probably the last throw of the dice. That West Ham side is not going to do anything at the Etihad.

Jinxing doesn’t exist. Aren’t you a scientist? You should be too smart to believe in that.

 

[Oxeki]

It's very likely we beat Everton 3-0 and City could beat West ham 6-0.

That would mess me up a lot.

 

[North5]

Actually starting to feel a bit nervous.

Thought I'd wisely extinguished all hope within me already.

HOW CAN I BE SO WEAK?!

Just pulling your string brother.

Of course I don't believe in stuff like that

But i think you're trying to lower your expectations/hope in preparation for the inevitable but deep down praying Sp**s get something

Same here tbh

Dont say this plz

 

[sdotzdot]

I been banging this we’re winning the league drum for ages.

But tonight is literally it. If Man City wins it is 99% over. Obviously anything can happen in football, but thinking WH getting anything but completely slapped on the final day of the season is close to delusional thinking.

We will find out tonight if we’re going to win the league or not.

 

[quattro]

Regardless of what happens tonight, this will be decided on the very last day. City under Guardiola are probably the most formidable dynasty this league has ever seen. Their consistency is simply unreal. We were supposed to be done by the end of December. The fact that we dragged this thing right down to the very last day is nothing short of a minor miracle. Given the nihilism of trying to survive the move to the Emirates during the Roman era followed swiftly by an even bigger case of sustained financial doping in City, I never thought I would ever see us in a position to challenge for the title two seasons in a row (with the second season being better than the last).

It's City's to lose at this point, but I have no doubt we'll still be there to capitalize if they bottle it. It can happen.

I think city score equilizer in injury time.

You reckon?

I’ve never been in this position as an Arsenal fan, where I can almost touch a title but it’s not in our hands. It’s horrible…

Even a draw tonight and I feel City can knock 5 or 6 past West Ham. Dropping points might also give City jitters in that final game so who knows.

I do feel like if we had beaten Villa we probably drop points at old Trafford or Sp**s with the pressure being top.
