We're getting into you're 26 until you're 27 territory here.
Manchester United v Arsenal - Sunday May 12th - 1630 PM GMT
DiabyKungFu Numerically, old bean. Numerically +2.
Arteta now happy with the performance either for what itโs worth. So definitely not by design.
I think this team needs to go through a season with these sorts of wins and build some belief and swagger.
anyone followed the coverage after the game? I need to know what Ten Hag cried about now
Burnwinter If we're only +2, then if City draw at Spurs, beat West Ham 3-0 and we beat Everton 1-0, what happens then?
Pepe LeFrits then we would be even and City wins
Pepe LeFrits Ok the other way round, if they draw at Spuds, they need to beat West Ham by 3 goals more than we beat Everton.
Normally when you are +3 you expect the other team to need to be 4 goals better off, but not this case.
The most important thing here is we are going to the final weekend with a chance to win the league.

Pepe LeFrits I won't, but I feel a strong urge to answer "Your mum"
@Clrnc's count is more practical in my opinion. If City improve their goal difference by 3 relative to us after an unlikely draw at Spurs, then we are equal on goal difference and they win.
If they improve only by 2, we are still ahead on goal difference and we win.
Barring improbable edge cases such as us beating Everton 7โ6 etc
HomeSteak then we would be even and City wins
This is why @Clrnc and @Burnwinter's disinformation needs to be defeated.
if spurs win on tuesday, i'll buy a scum shirt.
then burn it 10 minutes later

HomeSteak then they need 4 yes
They don't need 4, they need 3! @Pepe LeFrits see this is what happens when you tell people this!
Claudius Told you it would feel good, and it does.
Pepe LeFrits It's called mathematics.
You're all measuring goals in a conversation about goal difference, I can't help you with that. It's like trying to think about gravity without the concept of acceleration.
(I hope I'm right by the way, it's fucking late here)
Burnwinter yeah. It's such a weird vibe. We have just set a record for wins and are going into the final weekend with a chance to win. And we are engrossed in mathematics.

It's called something but it's definitely not mathematics
If we lose the league on goals scored, I expect to see you and @Clrnc in here making the principled stand for our points tally to be adjusted down from 89 points to 88, for consistency's sake
