Why do people quote the person if the post is directly above them?

Someone else may post in between/whilst typing a reply?

In the space of a minute, unlikely.

Apologies, right you are.

Hopefully we can do the same next time we visit Manchester against those campaigners at old trafford.

These are the only remaining fixtures we can use to gain on last season:
Villa (H) [Loss]
Everton (H) [Draw]
United (A) [L]
Swansea (H) [D]
Chelsea (H) [D]

That means of the 16 games remaining - we won 11 of the corresponding fixtures last season. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing - even if we win every game, it probably won't be enough for the title.

 

[Cruyff14]

Realistically, what's the most points we'll finish on?

 

[PendlePie]

Need to kick on this weekend and next. Two huge games. Need a win on Sunday and a result at Spurs to keep our distance on them and 'Pool

 

[Benno_900]

I'd say we'll finish on around 75 which could be enough for third.

If we can match last season, it'd be a decent effort considering how poor we've been so far.

 

[Cruyff14]

Agree, we have key players coming back now which is good. Hopefully we have a strong finish.

 

[PendlePie]

Worst possible set of results overnight - our direct opponents all winning and winning big. These type of Matchdays are make or break in the context of the season

 

[glenferry23]

We should be defeating Villa even without Sanchez. A hamstring isn't something you want to risk, NLD next week will be massive.

 

[Benno_900]

Wenger didn't deem the last NLD important enough for him to start.

 

[PendlePie]

Lineup out:

--------------------- Ospina -------------------
Bellerin -- Mertesacker -- Koscielny -- Monreal
----------- Coquelin ------- Ramsey -----------
--Walcott ---------- Cazorla ---------- Ozil ---
--------------------- Giroud --------------------

Subs: Szczesny, Gibbs, Gabriel, Rosicky, Flamini, Chambers, Akpom

Sanchez rested completely which is smart, however without Ox and Welbeck we only have Rosicky who can come off the bench and make an impact offensively.

Not really. Out of the top 10 sides we have left to play away from home are United and Spurs.

All other teams in the top 10 have worse run homes than us.

Geez... I thought he ****ed up his touch there... Nice goal.

Edit: F*cked changes to stuffed now?

 

[bok_party]

Lovely stuff so far

 

[NTRabbit]

BBC live text compared Coquelin to a young Makelele earlier in the half

 

[mad_monkey_j]

Quality counter attack and Ozil on the scoreboard again.

 

[bok_party]

Who was it who said Giroud can't pass?

 

[tigs2010]

Theooooooo

 

[mad_monkey_j]

And now Walcott, all the cripples are firing.

 

[mad_monkey_j]

Damn missed that one, Foxtel GO s**t the bed as usual.

 

[tigs2010]

That was a terrible penalty all around hahaha

 

[mad_monkey_j]

Bellerin's first goal now! Didn't look like there was much in the shot...

 

[NTRabbit]

I like this Ospinas chap, let's stick with him for a while

 

[Genesis67]

5-0, fantastic displays again by Santi and Coquelin, Ozil was really good, and most importantly, another clean sheet.

Ospina a clear #1 now?
