Win Premier League: Brighton & Hove Albion 2 - 4 Arsenal | Saturday 31st, December | KO: 17:30 GMT | Sky Sports

Must win game.

Let's be honest, they're a far better side than West Ham. Tactically, they're one of the best team in league. They contract the space on pitch and force you to play on their terms and look to impose their game on you. But we're a much different team to the side that lost to them at the tail end of last season tbf.

Prediction

Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

This ref is a joke.
Free kicks one way it seems and way to eager to book our players for nothing.
Partey and Gabriel have to be very very careful.

I can’t lie, if we bottle the league with a 7 point lead it will have to go down as one of the biggest capitulations, wouldn’t it? City would have to be pretty much perfect too.

As long as we beat them at the Emirates then I’ll have enough chest to say we’re winning it.

Provided we keep our team fit, and strengthen it, then yeah, it would be criminal to lose it from here.

Too many variables can still stop us unfortunately. Especially when our main rivals bring Foden off the bench.

Nah I don’t think so. That’s still so few points over a team as good as City. If there were 5-10 games less maybe, but not 22. Especially with the upcoming schedule.

This is going to be me

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Am I the only one who doesn’t mind his twerking?

It's nothing wrong with it but when your club in negotiation to sell you doing that won't help we don't mind it

That guy has no shame! Bring him home!

 

[TheGreatWright8]

He is Arsenal fan since youth.

Is that right ?? well still don't like him after the way he carried on when one of his **** players broke Ramsey leg in half, **** em.

 

[WiscoGooner8]

Does anyone still think Ødegaard needs upgrading?

7pts is not much and we haven’t even won this yet.

 

[BergMan]

We may not have kept possession but we have played well. Aside from the two goals we missed 2 great chances, Zinchenko one, forgot who the other was.

Still only 16 games in. 2016 was arguably worse still.

He's funny. Has anyone ever done so much of this before the transfer is confirmed?

 

[DanDare]

Glen Murray can't comprehend that Ødegaard finished that way on purpose

This is pure prostitution now

People keep saying this city side can get 100 points, but they can't even beat Everton or brentford at home LMAO. Looking more like an 80 point side right now.

They'd get 102 points if they won literally every game between now and end of season, 22 game winstreak won't happen like.

 

[El Duderino]

Whoa we had only 33% possession? Doesn't matter though we were clearly better.

our off the ball work has improved a lot, brighton managed a good spell here and there but we were still solid.

I still think we're not at a point where you trust us to shut a game down a one nil, but b*ms haven't gotte as squeaky as they used to get if we didn't manage two quick goals.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

This has got to be so demoralising for City players.

 

[Riou]

We have had some quality teams during the Emirates era (2008, 2015) with superb attacking play and some very good defenders (at least individually)

But @SA Gunner is right, this is our best all round team since 2004/2005....just has a bit of everything, tbh.

Mainly down to Partey and Xhaka, brilliant off the ball...and the sheer physicality that Saliba and Gabriel offers us... the potential of this squad is tremendous.

Love my football team

It's only MD17 though, there's just so many games left to play.

7 point gap with more than half a season to go wouldn’t necessarily be a capitulation. City could go on a winning streak, we gonna drop some points. Helps that city ended up holding on to win the PL last yr, maybe lost a bit of hunger
