It's my birthday you muppets so don't fucking ruin it. Birthday cake and espresso martinis on the menu for this 1.

Arteta's worst month is nearly over. Maybe he can get us to a 33% win percentage in the league for April 2026 which will be lower than his average win percentage for April in the league at 44%.

Despite myself and all the signs we've seen throughout the season, I still have a little hope that we can win out and City will drop points. As Arteta's great idol once said "I've always said that you can live without water for many days, but you can't live for a second without hope". So I guess I'm still living.

Maybe we will manage to score more than 1 goal a game from now who knows. A win here would be a good place to start. Play whoever just let them try to score a goal please. And if we lose/draw then good riddance at the end of the season.

LOL. What an intro. Happy birthday. I would take the same line-up into Newcastle. Only change I would make is add Timber and/or Saka if they are healthy.

Qwiss

I'm at this. The other games I've been to this season were Bournemouth and Wolves so don't get your hopes up.

Mirth

Qwiss damn, you're worse than flobaba.

Gurgen

Qwiss can you just stay away - it's just 5 games to go

Big Willie Champ

Mirth damn, you're worse than flobaba.

Agree with @Gurgen by the way. @Qwiss look at the bigger picture and let those tickets go to waste.

While we're at it (and happy birthday @Panda) but maybe you don't watch the game either this time 😂.

Panda

Big Willie Champ I will obviously be out celebrating so don't worry I won't be watching but I also missed the defeat to Bournemouth so I'm afraid it's out of my hands.

MistaT Inspirational stuff I know. You're welcome.

MistaT

I've got hope again after that intro @Panda !

For all the collective intelligence on this forum, it falls apart with a bit of superstition.😂

tazmania

daredevil what intelligence? We're a bunch of mindless monkeys

The trouble's more when fans try to give up superstition and turn to intelligence. Now it's @Panda's birthday you muppets so don't fucking ruin it. 👏

Let's see what the team does after a week long rest plus 5 defeats to think about. They better come out for blood. GD may decide things by the end

TambourineMan

Newcastle have lost 4 in a row. Bet they stop the rot here.

tazmania

I have a feeling this is a 3-0 at least. We'll smash them

Qwiss

All I ask is that we win this and the 7 games after it.

awooga83

I fear the draw it feels it could easily happen especially as this run feels very much like the equivalent of "the history of the arsenal"

HomeSteak

No chance of winning, but with a bit of luck we might get a draw.

Sicario2

It’s not only must win it’s must win by 2 or more margin. GD can come into play which is interesting if we say go 2-0 up but have A Madrid on the horizon. Do we rest players for midweek or keep them on to better our GD.

Pepe LeFrits

Dowman hat trick incoming

invisibleman18

Scoring 2 goals in a game feels as far away as it's ever been.

lorddulaarsenal

Smash em and trigger post Dubai form

USArsenal

lorddulaarsenal You mean the FIRST post-Dubai form. The last one saw us play like shit. And preferably without the slip ups that cost us the 23/24 title.

Claudius

USArsenal the last Dubai trip cost us Havertz, didn't it?
