Match chat.

Arsenal need this more, but that's never really stopped them shitting it before.
With Utd getting 4 wins in the league still might not guarantee top 4, but just one win or even 2 draws (with pens) could be enough in Europe it'll be interesting to see how Mourinho approaches this tie.
He will of course want to 1 up Wenger again. Ego n all that.

 

[Stevencc]

We'll be putting out a weakened squad, that should be enough to get a draw anyway - given Mourinho's record against Wenger.

 

[Pagnell]

I suspect after Liverpool failing to pick up 3 points, Mourinho will make an extra effort here.

Still see it as a draw myself, although an Arsenal win would be preferable.

1-1

 

[Mr. Scruff]

United fielding a pretty weakened side, against any other top side I'd be saying we have little chance here but its Arsenal. We could still get a win here

 

[Benji]

People think Herrera is short, but he's not short at all.

What a fantastic super sunday this has been so far.

 

[Pagnell]

Fantastic. What a deflection.

More of that please Arse.

 

[Pagnell]

2-0

Love it. Just what we need after our shit performance against the bus today.

Just had another look at the league table. If this score stays as is, 4th is back in our hands again as Arsenal even winning their 2 games in hand following this will still be a point short of our current tally and United will be 5 points off with only 1 game in hand.

Thank fuck for the chasing teams being even more shit than we are.

Keep it up Arsenal.

 

[Benji]

Ramsey has been running things today.

What happens if Liverpool come 4th and Utd fluke the Europa, do Liverpool shit out? Be hard to take if so.

Nope, there'd be 5 English teams in the CL.

 

[Pagnell]

Its almost sad to see the bag of festering shit Rooney has turned into. Then I remember who he is coupled with United paying him £300k a week and laugh.

 

[slaphead]

Nope, there'd be 5 English teams in the CL.

Ah, I thought they stopped that when Chelsea won the CL but failed to qualify the following year.

 

[Pagnell]

Ah, I thought they stopped that when Chelsea won the CL but failed to qualify the following year.

I think the CL and Europa are viewed seaprately. If Leicester had won the CL but finished 10th whilst Liverpool were 4th we would then have not gotten in with them as defending champions taking our spot.

 

[Stevencc]

Is it the Europa League final (that we're definitely winning) yet?

 

[smat]

 

[JimJams]

The only way 4th lose their spot is if PL teams win both European competitions.

 

[silkyman]

So after United's much feted unbeaten run, should Arsenal win their game in hand this week, they will have soared from 6th, all the way to 6th...

 

[Benji]

Worst invincibles of all time.
