Nothing to say the Asian gamblers won't want to shift things around with a late comeback.
Haven't we had a "Bookies already paying out on..." season before?
Lots of twists and turns to go, just won't be our new striker making any of them.

Saw the highlights last night and the most remarkable aspect of the game is how bad the gypos are all of a sudden. Definitely not down to one player being missing, because even if he was there he couldn't have done much about the lack of legs they had in the last 30, or the total disintegration of their passing game. And can players who have won so many titles be suffering such a severe confidence crisis they forget how to play the basics? Haaland had one touch in the remainder of the match after he score, so claim the pundits. Not sure if that is actually true, he might have had two.
They might struggle to make the top 4. Tactics against them are easy. Play at the highest tempo possible until they die on their feet and you can walk it past them and into the net.

Is Gary Neville a secret city fan? He seems pretty butthurt about the result. And he really doesn't like Gabriel's unsportsmanlike antics where he threw the ball at Haaland's head and ran away "in the heat of the moment". Disrespectful, says Gary. Made him feel uneasy.
Same Gary that was fined 10K for showing his respect to Liverpool fans when Utd scored that late winner, isn't he?

Strange how Haaland’s tirade at the end of the 2-2 game was seen as funny yet apparently we’re the disrespectful ones now?
In any walk of life, if you behave like a classless idiot then you should be expecting some retaliation.
I went last night as a friend couldn't go.
What a great game and I so far have a 100% win record when I am lucky enough to attend games![]()
Games like yesterday need to be savoured! I think HCZ's ratings are pretty spot on.
What this match showed is that despite our many setbacks this season the team is 100% behind the manager, and has real character. There's a backbone and togetherness that was lacking for years - and even where we have stuttered this season, it has not been for lack of effort/will.
What can I say about MLS and Nwaneri? 2 rookies who have come in and not just kept us going but have elevated the team. They not only embody the spirit that exists in our team, but show that if we are brave and take the game to the opposition we are a force to be reckoned with. I hope that yesterday's performance (including what happened when we went into our shell a bit at the end of the first half/beginning of the second) encourages Arteta to play more on the front foot and take a few more risks - because some of the points we have dropped this season have been IMO down to an over focus on keeping possession and pulling our punches when we could have been braver.
We have the talent. It's a shame that Liverpool are so far in front because I agree that winning the league will take an unexpected reversal in their fortunes at this point. But this result - combined with our upcoming 10 day break - should re-energise Arsenal even if (as now seems likely) we don't secure a new forward signing today.
Putting the laughter back into manslaughter
There's nothing wrong or troll-like about pointing out the HCZ often gets his judgements wrong - which he does (Rice, Gakpo etc etc)
So i genuinely am more hopeful we could get past Newcastle now he's said there's no chance
