Ahead of tomorrow’s match versus Everton at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League, I’ve looked at our forum, Arsenal Talk, to see what supporters are saying ahead of the game.
You can have your say on tomorrow’s match on the forum here. The match is live at 16:00 on TNT Sports 1 and the referee is Michael Oliver.
2Smokeyy: “If there was ever a time when a freak result just needs to happen, it’s on Sunday. Every other club is susceptible to those matches but City just seem immune which is a bit strange.
Would be so funny with all the talk over the past few days that we’ve bottled it, Arteta needs to be sacked, summer transfer targets etc only for us to end up winning the PL.”
Tir Na Nog: “Liverpool never beat City at the Etihad and City only won once at Anfield and that was during lockdown with no fans. Think us having to win at the Etihad to be champions is a bit overplayed. I get the point the mental boost it’d have given us would’ve been really significant but a draw certainly isn’t a bad result. Maybe given the context in terms of damaging City from a strategic point of view it might’ve been something that needed to happen, but remember a lot were focused on Liverpool being top back then.
As others have said you look back at 1 point from 2 games vs Fulham, 0 points from 2 games vs Villa. Losing at the Emirates vs West Ham. That’s 14 points we missed out on, even another couple of points in those games would’ve been enough. Over the course of the season, it’s too many silly points dropped especially against this City side who always get in the high 80’s if not the 90’s.”
Riou: “We got 8 points out of 12 against our title rivals, that’s very good.
The Fulham and West Ham games defeats were annoying too, but it’s the Villa game that cost us the most.
Said before but after we drew at City I felt we needed to win our last 9 games and we would do it, felt both City and especially Liverpool would drop points…and we ****ed it.
Villa aren’t even that good away from home, but Arteta changed the working system and the players bottled the second half.
I wouldn’t put yourself through too much tomorrow sadly, can’t see a realistic way it ends without a City win…we just have to go again next season.”
