Exactly. Any slight hope of a title chase went against Everton. We can’t be dropping points like that against bad sides.

Yep top 4 would be incredible this season so rivals are the scum villa and you have to say west spam and united for now

Not overly fussed by the Utd/West Ham fixture. With the latter’s European commitments and the former just not being good I don’t see either of them catching us. Arsenal v Liverpool is a massive game for obvious reasons but I think an Arsenal win is the worst outcome for us. I can’t see us keeping pace with City even if Liverpool have an unlikely wobble.

Why? We will be 8 points behind Liverpool still, which is too far away and we have to go to anfield.
We aren’t fighting for a title we are fighting for champions league and arsenal dropping full points keeps us 2 points behind them and 3 behind villa.

Because youve got to believe...with our squad shaping up to how it was earlier in the season that we'll go on a big run.

I know what Agne will be hoping for today, so why shouldnt we.

Calceido with a brilliant pass for the lead then a terrible giveaway for the equalizer.

I can't even bring myself to watch today's football, still deflated after yesterday!

Not winning always sucks when you raise your expectations too high.

Title ambitions died once we lost players and took only 18 points from 12 games.

Liverpool and City clicked into gear at this same stage.

Soon as we went more than 6/7 points behind it was always going to be over due to the stages of development we are at compared to them

Plus our defence is leaking goals at an alarming rate. Goal difference is usually a good measure as to where teams are and the top 5 are all in the positions their goal difference is. The anomaly is Utd and Newcastle who should be in each others places. Until will start keeping clean sheets it's going to be a tough ask to get top 4.

Chelsea are atrocious.. still mad they beat us
Chelsea didn’t beat us that night, we beat ourselves. I still think if our players had kept their heads, we’d have won that game and come through it without the serious injuries and suspensions that happened.

Not to mention the Gooner dick swinging that would ensue. (Probably more like weiner waggling in reality).

I see Maguire just gave the ball away and West Ham should've scored. Then Utd go up the other and score themselves

We'd have won it with 10 men. Look how long it took them to break us down with 9.
