This Arsenal team won't ever win the league now.

You don't run a title race close and botttle it the way they have then going on to get hammered by your title rivals.

Klopp's Liverpool always ran City really close and didn't at any stage bottle it, they just couldn't quite surpass them.

They finally did it but only cause they knew that an extra push would do it. They didn't suffer any demoralizing results or form.

How will Arsenal get over this?
How will they deal with a better United? A resurgent Liverpool? A City team who will probably be even better? Dare I say even Spurs won't be as much of a mess.

That was their chance. Their opening and they blew it
You mean like when we ran a title race close, bottled it, then got hammered by the relegated team on the last day?

There’s a big difference between leading a race and chasing an opponent in a race. The two aren’t even comparable, Arsenal have bottled this way worse than we did.

Yeah and two seasons running.
I hope saliba leaves in the summer he’ll have a year left.
I’d love city to make a huge offer to Saka in the summer who has a year left too.
I think Saka will sign a new deal, but I could easily see Saliba leaving. He is absolutely miles ahead of their next best defender, and should show them absolutely no loyalty after they shipped him out on loan for 3 years.

Every top team in Europe should be after him, and a lot of them with a better chance of trophies than Arsenal.

Another quality CB and Declan Rice in the summer and they could go again

Fingers crossed they implode & never recover from throwing this title away but unfortunately we can’t write them off just yet!

Whatever happens from now on, no one will ever be able to take away the fact that Arsenal won the league by Christmas.

He's such a litter twat. That whole thing at the end was him having a go at Foden for no reason.



It was like the World Cup where he pulled out and everyone assumed something terrible had happened, Arsenal even made him their player of the month in solidarity....and then it turned out he'll was a massive dick who fell out with everyone and they bombed him out the squad hahaha

What a pathetic little man. Picking on the smallest guy in the city team, and why?

it's fake toughness for the fans. xhaka does exactly the same thing.

pathetic little wannabe hard men who wouldn't last 5 seconds in a proper situation.

Yeah unfortunately players like Saka, Martinelli, Odegaard and Saliba are still young and will only get better.

The stars aligned for them somewhat this year with practically every team except City shitting the bed, minimal European distractions and decent luck with injuries. Not sure they'll be able to replicate that next season.

Sadly looks like they're here to stay at the top end of the table, though. To compare it to us under Poch, this is like our 15-16 Leicester season so they'll have a good few years left in this cycle and the pricks will be near the top for a while yet.

Fully expect all their big names to sign new deals given how young they are, too. Unless Madrid or someone comes in hard for Saliba (please!).
