Weekend Football

[Winston Biscuit]

Currently feel that City will absolutely smash them on Wednesday

[NathStPaul]

Ah Forgot that that one....were they as far ahead though? I seem to remember them drawing and losing at Liverpool....but Arsenal have just been horrific apart from 45 minutes at Liverpool.

Pressure is a great leveller. Youngsters in the Arsenal haven't been in this place before where at City have a squad full of winners. This was always going to happen imo.

I keep hearing about Arsenal "youngsters" but who are we talking about here from last night's game?
Saka and Martinelli?

These two 21 year olds, their youngest, are hardly inexperienced kids:

Saka-130 games for Arsenal first team , 26 England caps and has played for England in both the Euros and World Cup
Martinelli-90 games for Arsenal first team, 6 Brazil caps and played for Brazil in the latest World Cup

Overall they have a very athletic youngish squad that have done really well this season but may well fall short in a season that might represent their best chance in a long time.
There is nothing to say that they will progress next season when we can expect Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd and Newcastle to be stronger and Man City will still be there.

Their fans should probably look back on a very enjoyable League season (not so good in Cups and Europe) regardless of whether they end up winning or coming second.

They are inexperienced when it comes to winning and dealing with the pressures that come with it. Majority of the Arsenal squad are.

Presumably you meant City?
Mind you, City players haven't actually won any European Cups, Euros or World Cups have they?
That is a question rather than a point because I can't immediately think of any.

I actually think they might improve themselves again in the summer and going into next season, regardless of what happens this season. They've got a better squad than both United and Newcastle and only really need to add in a couple of areas to make themselves stronger. Maybe an improvement at CB and in CM and they'll be looking strong again really.

Losing Saliba has absolutely killed them

Losing Saliba has absolutely killed them

Can’t quite work out why they haven’t used Benny Blanco at CB
Shirley he must be better than either Gabriel or Holding

Cracking goal from Paul Mullin. PS does anyone else enjoy it when co-commentators lose it off mic?

[Royal Rother]

Newcastle 5-0 Spurs after 20 mins.

Holy crap.

[Winston Biscuit]

Spurs just offer such good LOL value season after season

And again

What an absolute clown club

[Hendo]

Tonking for Bournemouth at home to West Ham as well. 0-4.

[genome]

Genuinely hilarious. No manager, no director of football, worst 20 minutes in Premier League history. Just

[6ft Kerplunk]

Are we still supposed to believe that the Premier League us the best in the world when that Spurs team are top 5?

[YorkshireRoyal99]

That Newcastle Spurs game just shows what a difference that the mood around the club can make to a team and not just the players on the pitch. The difference in mentality between both teams was staggering and that's what Levy & co need to address at Spurs.

Hopefully for them they'll go for a manager that's a little bit more inspiring at least.

[Loafer]

Spurs need a whole new defence and keeper

[Winston Biscuit]

I don't even know that is possible

[AthleticoSpizz]

Another FA Cup final to be ‘washing my hair’ for

[windermereROYAL]

If Kane doesn`t try to move on in the summer then he`s an unambitious twat, he will be 30 next season and 31 when his present contract expires.

[Winston Biscuit]

Seems weird that our season ends in 14 days time yet there are teams in the PL with 8 games to go, and 1 team with 9 games left, which is almost a quarter of a season

[Hendo]

Enjoyed Utd v Brighton, two well matched teams. Brighton have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years.

Won't watch the final as I'll be playing cricket, but should be a cracker.
