Yep, we are finishing 6th.
Premier League Gameweek 9 fixtures (20th - 22nd October 2018)
- Thread starter Sandyman
- Start date
I don't trust the defence & Lukaku stops you doing that going the other way? -
.I'm (just) saying - not looking for an argument.
How will they finish out of top 4 if tthese games are bread and butter? They make up the majority of the games.
That goal was quite brilliant.

Who on here jinxed Lacazette?
I must have completely dreamt your 6th place finish last season which was under danger to Burnley and our 2nd place finish. Which has seen a massive reversal in just 4 months of new management at Arsenal.
Ah but it's Arsenal though. A cock-up is bound to happen and they'll moan.
V. impressive run of wins and they needed to freshen up the management. But the goals we're seeing now is no different to an Arsenal side of six, seven years ago. It just couldn't get any worse than last season.
Yup.That we don't need half a billion to play good football? Yeah real outlandish
Terrible pass by aubameyang there
They're not doing anything, really.
Suspect defence, far too part-time bigtime.

Even though lacazette has missed chances his hold up play has been great. Who knew you didn’t have to be a big lump to hold onto the ball
If its tight at the top between 3 or more teams while all the contenders beat the dross, then those head to heads are important. Most title winners win (or atleast avoid defeat) the crucial games against their title contenders and now theres more of them.
I think Wolves and Everton might finish above us too. I predict another few meltdowns from Jose and the players.
7th-8th finish, Jose sacked.
Vardy to take a shit?
He definitely left the pitch pretty quick.
Arsenal aren't aiming to win the PL though. Top 4 and getting back to CL would be deemed as a success this season.
A better chance maybe, but we’re not winning the Europa League either - not with Chelsea in there, and indeed Arsenal if can play like this from here on out, never mind the other teams dropping down with us from the Champions League. It’s all pretty hopeless for us as far as Champions League qualification goes.
Just seen the goals. Surprised to not see a single use of the word sweaty to describe them.
Leicester are all over the place, especially their central mids, and have no shape whatsoever. Obviously credit to Arsenal, but as some have already said, their passing team goals aren't anything new.
The goal for most of the top teams is to win the league at the start of the season no matter what the circumstances. If its unlikely by xmas then atleast achieve a ucl place. Arsenal should be aiming for the title with this start.
Do we really want to qualify for the CL though? What will it achieve? Another season of Jose, more negative football, more meltdowns, more bad press...
Missing out on European football altogether and getting in an attack minded manager who will get bums on seats at OT again is important. Not another tumescent 6 games in the CL next season for a few quid.

Aye but that's standard across the league. they've got a decent attack which will win them enough games.
So lucky.
Never let the truth get in the way of a good moaning!
Agree, I think our main focus is to stabilise most of all. last season we had an abysmal away record, I think we're looking to get to a point where we look alright at home, do not collapse every third away game, beat most of the 'worse' teams, do not get stomped by the top contenders and get CL if we can.
We haven't been playing brilliantly so far this season but we've often still come away with the 3 points, which everyone is clear about does not paper over the cracks, but it makes the transition work a lot easier as everyone, the media and their dog are not on your back.
All the London clubs have such crap chants. “Who are ya?”
I mean, really?
I mean, really?
Well, must admit i finally enjoy watching us again, albeit we should start better. Everytime we give the opponents the whole first half.
They're genuine contenders & possibly the best team ever if they do it.
Would you take another season in the EL next season if it meant Jose left?
Yes definitely.
They're not contenders for the title but will surely challenge for too four.
That made fun. First game of 5 in 12 days.
We have to win against Palace too, because we will probably not look good against L'pool

I hope Arsenal get 4th over Spurs. I used to like Spurs until I joined RedCafe.
Usual performance, asleep for a while, unbelievable luck and then we wake up and destroy the opponent in 3 minutes The real games starts after Palace: Liverpool / Wolves / Spurs / United. 3 of these are at home but it's going to be a massive run of games...

Yes, and decent to watch. Can't avoid admitting that.
We might struggle to attract players if we don't make the CL and I'm worried players like DDG and Pogba won't hang around to play EL.
Glasto ? -
