Sicario2 - Tier 1 If buts and maybes. Let’s deal in the real world and we are 7 points behind Liverpool. Think Liverpool drop points soon and we can capitalise.
People all of a sudden forget we took Man City to the last day of the season last year. You don’t become a bad team over night. Football is so fucking fickle.
With Ode back, mentally, we are a different team.
Whilst I agree with all this, you are one of the hardest people to read on here. Couple dropped point games and you're all "title race is over" after 5 or 6 rounds. A few more poor results in the following games and it's all gone the opposite way and we can now capitalise and claw back a 7/5 point gap to Liverpool/City. I think the only thing I can be confident of when it comes to you is whatever it is, it'll be absolute confidence in what you are saying and no fence sitting like a certain someone we all know. 😆
If we can get some semblance of attacking verve back then for sure we can get back in it. The season is way too early to write off. The only worry is whether the players still have the same belief and can release thr handbrake so to speak. After 2 years of blood, sweat and tears resulted in falling just short, and coupled with the poor run of form we've been in over the last month and a half, it is a genuine worry. Arteta needs to work his magic and get the players believing again, and soon.
