Good result.
Even a draw tomorrow would be a good result.

Farmer league.
I put the F1 on and Sunderland went 1-0 up. Put the footy on 2-1. Play red dead redemption. 2-2.
That was on me.
That was on me.
No it won’t.
Someone asked me earlier today how I thought this one would go and I thought Sunderland could get a point as they were at home (went for a 1-1 scoreline). Shoulda had a cheeky fiver on it.
He's crying?!
Great result. If we win tomorrow we could be a couple of points clear in second and four points off top, which was inconceivable very recently. A big IF though.
Good that they are fallible and other teams can see it
Hate to break it to you, but your cheeky fiver on 1-1 would have been, cheekily, lost
Sure if I'd specified the score, but I wouldn't have been *that* cheeky. 😉
Only to those who lost their marbles. We are still a very good team.
No a win tomorrow is a good result.. A draw is a poor result and a loss is disastrous
A win would be a great result which it always is away to Pep.
You’re not wrong, but if we are to get back on track for the title I think a win is a must. If our aim is to consolidate and get top 3 or 4 then a draw would be fine. But I want us to go all out to make up for those recent results.
Well 5 pts but yeah. A win could be transformative. Put doubt back into Arsenal and be a massive boost to our confidence with a run of very winnable games coming up.
Yeah of course it would be a good result. A point away at one of the toughest teams / grounds in the country. Against an in-form team. Arsenal don't play there until April.
One of the reasons we won the league last season is when we fucked up the chasing pack fucked up too.
If we weren't 8 pts behind then it would be a good result but at this stage we need to start reeling in that deficit..
At this stage? There's ¾ of the season still to go!
We had a 7 point gap over Arsenal this time last season. They never closed it down.
And we've lost 4 of our 10 games already...
I'm a bit surprised people are even still talking about the title tbh. The priority is just consolidating these last 2 results and seeing where it takes us, for me.
Whilst I agree 4 is too many, and it doesn't give us much leeway, it's not insurmountable. United lost 6 times on the way to the title in 2000 and Blackburn 12 times in 1994-5.
That said if this is our 'transitional season' and we start winning more PL and CL titl3s in the following 6-7 seasons, I'll take it.
Wasn't 2000 one of the years they absolutely walked the title? Surely a lot of those losses were in dead rubbers?
We haven’t had one.
