  • Manchester United v Arsenal - Sunday May 12th - 1630 PM GMT

The last time we had a chance to win the league on the last day 1999, United's treble winning season.

Really hoping we get our Agueeeerroooo moment, with either Saka/Ode/Rice/Kai scoring.

    Qwiss no, that's true. To be fair to us, I did think we were much better in the second half. Had United at arm's length for the majority.

      Midfield was shocking. Partey is done and needs to go. Odegaard a shadow of his actual talent like he often is at these places, and Rice sloppy and lacking a bit of cuteness in the build-up.

      We need a new CM for sure but I am also worried that Odegaard will play another 60 games next season because Vieira and ESR are total non factors. Really need to be able to spell the captain sometimes.

      QuincyAbeyie I quite liked Tyler tbh. Seemed a real student of the game and didn't feel forced in his dramatics.

      He got a lot of flack in his later years but sounds like he was in genuine risk of losing his vocal chords so was probably just trying to to preserve them.

      RocktheCasbah If Garnacho puts one of those half chances away we won't be saying that.

      The rain helped us though, the last 15-20 minutes both teams could hardly play much, everyone is slipping

        IBL remember the heartbreak of that final day. Was my first proper season following Arsenal.

        We did our job against Villa at home and Spurs Spursed up the lead they took against United in the other game.

        Really though, we Spursed it all up in the penultimate game at Leeds.

        We (Arteta) Mourinho-ed United.

        The challenge will be I expect the GD to be wiped out by the weekend which means we need City to probably lose that last game.

          I don’t mind the approach, it’s served us well. I’m disappointed about the execution. Aside from the back four, I think everyone else was in a bit of a zombie like state. They was passing through the midfield and getting at the back four too easily. Lost too many duels and were never close to winning second backs, these are all normally massive strengths.

          Felt like we were caught in mental no man’s land.

          Clrnc he didn't really have any good chances though. Our unscored efforts were better.

          Fucking get in!!! Let's enjoy the last day now even though our chances are slim.

          We have definitely made progress this season by taking it to the last day. I'm proud of this team ❤️

          Next weekend will be epic, folks. Who would’ve thought we’d be coming to this moment at various times this season. We are closing out well (15 wins in our last 17), so I expect us to do our part. Woooooo! COYG!!

          You’re assuming City will beat Spurs by 5 or more, and/or that we can’t beat Everton at home by more than 2.

            Well we did not fuck them, but I will take it. Fuck them
            Saliba has now won MOTM away at Liverpool, City and United.

            goon You do realise we only have a 2 GD advantage against City right? If its level they will win by goal scored.

              Nah, assuming City draw one of their games which is the prerequisite for GD to matter, we have a +3 advantage. I'll take those odds going into the final day.

              Clrnc Clarence, I know it's your default state to be critical of the team, but Arsenal quite clearly had all the best chances of that game. Did Raya make a save in the match? You've basically said it yourself, United only had half chances.
