19th February 2026 at 8:32 am #239603I said City would win the title months ago and that we wouldnโt qualify for the CL. Iโll stick with both of those calls.

19th February 2026 at 9:33 am #239605Arsenal were always likely to drop off and it was just a case of whether City had it in them to put a winning run together, so that’s a fair call which most people probably suspected. But why do you think we won’t finish in the top 5, JM?

19th February 2026 at 9:43 am #239606I think a lot depends on villa, JM. if they can hold onto a champions league place then it’ll be Chelsea, liverpool, Brentford and us for the 2 remaining, which will be a tough ask.
absolutely delighted by the injury time goal for wolves. when Jesus came to the club he changed the belief, when rice came to the club he changed the control. but arteta has now gone from that brief spell of playing great football with jesus up front to the ‘1 point is as good as 3’ football that he has got them playing now. persisting with the new lad up front when he is just piss poor as a footballer is also a bad decision. in great teams you cannot shackle your players, you need to let them play.

19th February 2026 at 10:13 am #239608The only reason Wolves drew that game was because of an uncharacteristic balls up between Raya and Gabriel. It was an Onana style fuck up. Arteta canโt legislate for that. That said itโll be interesting how they approach the remaining games. If he continues with the safety first approach then theyโll blow it and City will the league.

19th February 2026 at 10:18 am #239609I just think weโve a number of away games left that will require us to win dirty happy, and I just donโt think we have the players to do that. Hope Iโm wrong obviously. On your point about City, many may have thought it, weโll never know, but I said it mate. Again, hope Iโm wrong because rather Arsenal than City. That said, every cloud has a silver lining, and to see the โNorth London foreverโฆโ brigade crying into their flat pint of Fullers will be fucking lovely.

19th February 2026 at 10:21 am #239611Agree bob, Villa actually might end up struggling for a CL slot. Looking at Liverpoolโs fixtures and their renewed confidence, theyโre a shoe in for me, along with Arse and City of course. I think the other two slots are between Villa, us and Chelsea, who also have some tricky fixtures btw.

19th February 2026 at 10:23 am #239612City are far from perfect themselves, don’t forget they threw away a two goal lead against Thomas Frank’s Spurs team only recently, and if as expected Rodri gets the sort of ban he deserves to get for basically saying that referee’s were all corrupt then that could be pivotal as well. It’s like I said recently, every team is going to drop points you don’t expect them to drop especially when the fixtures come thick and fast, which is one of the reasons I fully expect Villa to come right back into the pack with us, Liverpool and Chelsea. No other fixture distractions is the one clear advantage that we have got, and that’s why a win at Everton on Monday night is really vital now.

20th February 2026 at 6:07 am #239665I did say complacency would be our undoing against WestHam and the same will continue to happen because some of these players only give absolute ๐ฏ especially the media is against them. We shouldnโt even be within touching distance of either Chelsea and Liverpool because they play cup Competitions and the Champions league and we are never catching up to Villa.
Itโs just really baffling that each season we always seem to have the same motivational issues against the lesser teams regardless of the players we have.

20th February 2026 at 8:00 am #239667Weโre only 5 points behind Villa mate and I suspect they may be on the cusp of a wobble. And they have to come to us. Donโt get me wrong, I think weโll fuck it up, but the gap between us and them is not insurmountable.

20th February 2026 at 4:21 pm #239706All of the teams in the top 6 have their own problems. It will all go down to the wire. If we can’t win then not losing is the name of the game for us now over the next few weeks.
Our last 7 games, from April onwards, will be decisive:Leeds (H)
Chelsea (A)
Brentford (H)
Liverpool (H)
Sunderland (A)
Forest (H)
Brighton (A)Those home games are going to be massive. Wouldn’t fancy us away at Chelsea or Sunderland to be honest. But if we had to go to Brighton on the last day and win to get CL football i’d be relatively confident. Brighton have fallen off a cliff the last month or so. We might get 11 points from those 6 games and then go into the last game of the season needing something. Nice to actually be in the hunt for something as opposed to 15th in the fucking league isn’t it!

21st February 2026 at 5:56 pm #239747Shit results for Villa and Chelsea today! Chelsea actually should have lost, huge miss at the end for Burnley. Hopefully Forest take points off Liverpool tomorrow which gives us a tiny bit of breathing space then if we can beat Everton.

21st February 2026 at 8:01 pm #239751If we somehow beat Everton on Monday (a massive IF), we’re just 3 points behind Villa… 3rd might actually be achievable if these guys get their finger out (especially with all the other big teams around us focusing on the CL also).
