No, but it's 2% away from being fucked for good.

[Coney]

We conceded fewer than 8 goals against Utd this time :cool:

Morally we won, because they only scored a quarter of what they did last time whereas we scored a half of what we did. :good:

[Niall_Quinn]

And a half multiplied by a quarter is an eighth, which when multiplied by the amount of goals they got last time is 1. So they actually should have scored one not two, which means statistically we got a draw. Not bad considering how many players we had missing.

[Elreactor]

Mutd struggled to win this time, which means the team has reached a point of mental toughness and maturity that will hurt rivals in coming matches. If we add to that all the players that are on the verge of wildly coming back, stronger and more ruthless than ever, we conclude that the title race far from being over.

And we have to understand the wise decision of not buying anyone, as the new signings would take the same (if not more) time than our almost-recovered injured players to get a good level of fitness.

We will, we'll get at least 13 points from our remaining games and City will get maybe 1 or 2, but I predict zero. Never seen a team collapse as badly as they have, except us last year. They are a laughing stock.

so if the players we are rumoured to sign were waiting for third place finish then the next few weeks will be very interesting. we have got everything they want, a good squad, good club and a bright future (i dont care what others say, thats my opinion, we have a very bright future for next season)

But we're bigger and stronger than she is, so ultimately we'll get our way in the end?

No, but our larger size will be advantageous in persuading RVP that we are the sort of team to look after him and keep him safe. Especially once we flex our muscles and beat our chests a bit more.

[Master Splinter]

[Cripps_orig]

Arsenal’s home is officially Europe’s toughest ground in the Champions League group stage.
Opta stats prove Arsenal boast the best home record at this phase of UEFA’s elite competition since moving to their new ground in 2006.
Gunners fans can take heart and forget, for now at least, Saturday’s demoralising defeat at Norwich.
Since 2006 Arsenal have NEVER lost a home match in the group stage.
Only Chelsea and Celtic can boast the same in that six-year period. But European champs Chelsea have fewer wins and the Scottish kings have played just 10 matches at home in that period — Arsenal have played almost twice as many.
Schalke come to London after an impressive win away at champions Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
Huntelaar said: “We want to win at the Emirates. After dropping two points against Montpellier in the last match we want a point as a minimum.
“We have to close down the spaces and keep it tight between midfield and defence.
“We have to stop not only Lukas Podolski but also their marvellous midfield.
“That’s our first task and the second task is to play aggressively defensively and offensively like we did in the 2-1 win at Dortmund.”
History, though, favours Wenger’s side. Arsenal boast the sixth-best home record overall in the Champions League’s 20-year history.
Taking the group stage into account at Highbury and the Emirates, Arsenal drop to seventh.
But since leaving their beloved Highbury, Arsenal are Europe’s best at home in the group phase.
They have an an astonishing 84 per cent win ratio (16 wins 3 draws). Real Madrid have the same wins, but have lost two at the Bernabeu, while third-placed Chelsea have won fewer.
The Gunners have only lost ONE match at the Emirates — against Manchester United in the Champions League semi-final second-leg in 2009.
Arsenal have progressed to the knockout stages for the last nine years in a row. A win on Wednesday will all but seal their passage yet again.
They also went past the first group stage in 2001 and 2002 but there was a second group stage then and they didn’t make it to the knockout ties.
The last time Arsenal were knocked out in the first group stage was 2000.

[Niall_Quinn]

WE'RE BACK!

Onwards to the treble :scarf::jumpnana::dance:

[Master Splinter]

Oxlade is playing well.

Sanchez is awlsome.

We should get some real WUMger gems now that he'll be little bit grilled by everyone (apart from those that count).

Positivity is healthy.

[Letters]

Only one point off the top 4 trophy.
:yippee:

[Niall_Quinn]

Any minute now I'll think of something...

[Marc Overmars]

Only one point off the top 4 trophy.
:yippee:

Top 4 trophy. :bow:

The only title race that counts.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We've got Alexis.

[Niall_Quinn]

We've got Alexis.

And now for some truly mindless optimism.

We may even hang on to him.

[Master Splinter]

More fight threads will ensue:

"I was always right about Wenger. You all said he was perfect and would win us the quintuple."

"I told you water was wet. You all said it was coarse and wooly. Seems I win the intranet once more, ignoramuses!!"

"Your mum."

Fight threads :bow:.

[topgun]

We've got Alexis.

For now.

[Master Splinter]

For now.

Not optimism.

FFS. :doh:

[Niall_Quinn]

For now.

Red card! That's neither mindless nor optimistic.

I do hope Alexis does end up going to a club that is in contention of winning sileverware. The plain truth is he much too good for Arsenal and I wouldnt begrudge him a move away, seriously. His skill and work rate is brilliant and he is world class, in fact I have never see a better player at Arsenal in the 45 years I have followed the club.

OX is starting to look good, there's a bit of optimism for ya on a Monday morning.

[Ollie the Optimist]

OX is starting to look good, there's a bit of optimism for ya on a Monday morning.

is he though? he can make some great runs, as he did a couple of times yesterday but his passing is woeful. So many times, he fucked up a simple pass yesterday. I don't think he will make it, he'll end up at a west ham/everton type club, but won't be anything special

[Niall_Quinn]

Excuse me chaps!

Can we please have some mindless optimism in here please - AND ONLY MINDLESS OPTIMISM. Not even general optimism, it has to be mindless. There are plenty of other threads in which to post sane and rational messages. This thread is reserved for mindless, insane and totally unfounded wishful thinking of the most deluded kind. Please don't spoil it for the mindless people posting here. Thanks.

Fair enough.

I think Arsenal might win a game of football again this season.

That better NQ? ;)

How mindless are we talking here?

There is a loving, caring God that exists and cares about us and when I die I will have eternal life in a celestial paradise instead of just decaying with my carcass?.

That level of Mindless Optimism?

[Niall_Quinn]

That's mindless cynicism, the exact opposite of what we're looking for.

[Master Splinter]

I support Bayern Munich.

[Letters]

Only 2 points of 4th place trophy
:dance:

Chelsea drop 2 points, the gap is down to 13.

It's ON! :cool:

We won the second half 2-0

Spirit :bow:

[mr_brighterside]

we only had one player sent off

and diaby doesn't have a new injury

[fakeyank]

This is the penultimate season for Wenger (unless he signs a new deal) :dance:

[Globalgunner]

Hes probably already signed an extension. Just hasn't been announced yet. Sorry FY.

Which he will! :dance:

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

If the table was reversed, we'd be leading the way.

[Kano]

19th place now, moving back up the table effortlessly without doing a thing.

Wenger :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Last day of November!

From tomorrow we'll be unbeatable :bow:

[Letters]

You joke, but that's pretty much what has happened in some other seasons and this year and this year we're in touch. Partly because of other teams' failings but it doesn't really matter why.

[Bumble]

Last day of November!

From tomorrow we'll be unbeatable :bow:
Also as we normally go on an excellent run after getting knocked out of the CL.... maybe that is why Wenger picked those sides for the first two games as some kind of master plan to win the league by starting the run 3 months earlier than normal.

Fair point but we need a squad to do that........last I heard was that with all the injuries we are offering contracts to striking junior doctors......as long as they can play in midfield and don't mind a bit of overtime in the physio dept

:lol:

The striking Junior doctors thing got me thinking the other day, was wondering whether we would be affected! Typical Arsenal thing to employ a bunch of Junior doctors on the cheap!

[Master Splinter]

We'll be top of the league after we beat Bournemouth on Monday. :scarf:

And still top after Leicester draw/lose to Citeh. :scarf:

Top of the league going into the new year. :scarf:

If we fuck up against Bournemouth, it's definitely not my fault.

[Master Splinter]

Top of the league :bow:.

Wenger :bow:.

[GP]

And we'll stay there until May.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Halfway Champs. :bow:

[Xhaka Can’t]

Is now a bad time to mention that I bought fakeyank tickets for the Southampton match?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

If it's for him going to St Mary's; not to worry.

[fakeyank]

Thanks GB! My luck will change next year, Inshahallah! :lol:

The unofficial double. :bow:

Remember when they said we didn't get any extra trophies for going unbeaten?

Except we did

By 10 points so I'm told....

[I am invisible]

Trophy of Respect? Got to be strong candidates again, although Leicester might run us close this year?

Then again, it is our made up trophy, so, you know... fuck Leicester.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Not to put a downer on things but our next six away games are

- Liverpool
- Stoke
- Bournemouth
- Man Utd
- Spurs
- Everton

Excluding Bournemouth, we got only 3 points out of those last year. :doh: Oh yeah, for good measure as well, we Chelsea at home sandwiched in between those.

If we can somehow get through that, there or there abouts, we've got a chance.

[Letters]

That is neither mindless or optimistic :sulk:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Meant to post this in the "Do you Believe" thread :doh::doh:


Oh well, call it mindless optimsim as I think we'll still be near the top after all these difficult games provided Alexis doesn't get another setback. Please for the love of god, say he doesn't get another setback.

[Letters]

Can't be more than one point off the top whatever we do tomorrow.

Wenger :bow:

Clean sheet, no injuries and one defeat in 8.

Great spirit and togetherness in this squad.

Wenger - 4 more years, 4 more years! :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1 GD better off than this time last season. :cloud9:

[Letters]

Only 3 points off the top :cool:
3 goals vs Liverpool, proving we don't need a striker.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

How about not so mindless optimism

Fuck football, the real sport worth watching has been in Rio, no I'm not big athletics fan but loved the cycling and the tennis

[Letters]

Clean sheet :bow:

Holding looks a player.

[Niall_Quinn]

Only club to take a point at Leicester this season?

2 league games ago we were 10 points off the leaders. Now it's only 5 points.
