Weren't we linked with Cisse at one stage? Cisse + RVP = title.

Cisse and Jelavic - we were definitely napping when those two became available.

Not bothered with Jelavic, bit of a poacher, no where near the class of Cisse.

Jelavic would have been a decent option off the bench for us in the run in.
He was available and cheap in January.

Ba went off the boil because of Cisse, he's been shifted out to the left.

Really? I thought they were always two up top. Anyways, has worked for them.

I don't rate that cisse hat highly. Think this may just be a to streak

Park has nearly adapted

We'll beat Norwich at home and that will untwist some knickers.

Don't know what system they played tonight but it's been Ba-Cisse-Ben Arfa for most of the last few months. In fairness, two out of those three have benefited hugely from the formation change.

You must be new here.

The difference between Milan and Juve is only a single point now with two games to go. In other words: Juventus might go through a whole season unbeaten and still finish 2nd in Serie A. Insane.

Tony Montana

Is anyone worried about Spurs? I am.

Why the hell didn't we beat Stoke or Wigan. AAAAAARGH!

Rex

If they manage the season unbeaten I want them to finish 2nd. No real invincibles then, eh? 🙂

Qwiss

I'd probably bring Carroll and Smalling. Henderson is rubbish though and I don't know too much about Bothroyd, weird to pick a Championship player though.

IBL

is our late bottle job still on?

Claudius

But seriously, where do people see our goals coming from these last 2 weekends? One draw and it's out of our hands. How did it come to this, Arsene?

Tony Montana

We could easily bottle it.

Even if we beat Norwich we haven't made it.

Was a straight 4 4 2 tonight, but you're right about them using 3 up front in most games in 2012. It has hurt Demba Ba but, as a coach, you're justified in hurting a 1 goal in 2 game striker if it reveals a 1 goal in 1 game striker.

Pardew has done a great job this season.

A streak or around 40 goals in his last 60 games or something ridiculous like that.

Timbob

1 point clear with 2 games left, those games being against Norwich at home and West Brom. We're certainly capable of fucking up, but we're very strong favourites.

Anyway, I'll leave you lot to it.

spacemanspiff

I think we're going to fuck up to be honest.

We should have sewn it up a couple of weeks ago. We now need to win twice. So we have massive pressure.

We know what Arsenal are like under pressure. Shaky as hell.
