Manchester City absolutely battered Arsenal in the second half. Arsenal looked clueless on the ball. I can't wrap my head around Arteta's decision not to start Madueke. I'm curious to see how Arteta tries to sugarcoat this loss.

Arsenal fans were confused and they are doubting if Arsenal will win the Premier League. Upon all the gap with 9 points, they are still in doubt. Let's see what will happen. N. O'Reilly single handedly scored the two goals with the assist in the second goal. He used his head to scored the first goal. And he was good on the field in that Match. Coaches in sometimes do mistake by wrong selection. Arteta can't do anything again he has loss and all his focus now is the Premier League.

Well that second half was what caused arsenal the game, I think whatever Arteta said to them in that dressing room is what really brought about that awful performance in the second half. I would say Arteta is not brave enough, there is always this defending mentality about his game and let hope it won’t cost them a lot of his season. Well now that they have lost the Corabao cup they still have the premier league, champions league and emirate cup to challenge for.

For me I think they will win the premier league this season, because when you look at Manchester city behind them they have been inconsistent in winning their games. There is still a lot of games that to be played but for now I consider favorite to win the league.

Have you ever thought that this loss could be the catalyst for Arsenal to win the premier,  do you know that pain could be a source of motivation, I don't think you do. Arsenal might have lost the carabao cup final, but they still remain the best team in Europe and that has also been confirmed by Pep Guardiola after the match. It really a difficult loss for the team, but I don't think that will affect their performance in the premier league,  rather it will be a boost for them to go all the way to win the premier. In my opinion I still think the premier league is over, because I don't see Arsenal losing the advantage of 9 points at the top of the premier league.

Arsenal won't easily relinquish their advantage in the Premier League. Yes, they lost to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, but I don't think they'll lose in the Premier League. Arsenal currently holds the advantage in the Premier League. Manchester City's unexpected point losses this year have made things easier for Arsenal. Although they came very close to Arsenal at one point, Arsenal are now in a better position and will most likely win the championship, ending their long wait for the title.

This is how the relegation battle looks after the recent results in the PL!

Tottenham should be grateful for Aston Villa to have beaten West Ham... Otherwise maybe they could have been in relegation zone now. They aren't in a safe place anyway though.  

I just don't have any words to explain their loss against Forest like that. I can only say that the players have completely lost their respect for Igor Tudor and they are doing their best to send him away. Probably it will happen at any time.

It was a surprising but not so surprising result considering that Tottenham have not been in a good form whereas Nottingham Forest is on the rise…. Fighting to get away from the relegation zone. Tottenham are back where they ended last season, I am still blaming the management for how they hire and fire coaches.
Nottingham Forest has really improved their game if they continue like this, they most likely will be safe at the end and they also have a chance at the Europa trophy.

Toteham really got lucky by Aston villa winning against West Ham, that was there fastest way going out from the league but somehow they were sustained by that loss against West ham. although toteham have shaken lately before that match because they haven't really been in a very good sharp before that game so it some reduced the expectations from that particular game but however they gotten all the way to have made through with west ham

Tottenham hotspur would have dropped to the relegation zone had been Westham United won Aston Villa, and i think they should be thankful to Aston Villa for winning Westham United and helping them to remain in the 17th place and buying them time to fight to remain in the premier league, but i do not think Tottenham hotspur will be lucky next time if they continue performing poorly in their remaining matches this season, so they need to improve their performance if they really want to avoid relegation because they are just using one point to lead Westham United, and if Westham United win more matches than Tottenham hotspur, Tottenham hotspur will be relegated this season.

I think this is not easy to accept as the team like Arsenal which is really performed much better throughout the season. Arsenal's performance was really good and the fans are expecting to see them on a great position because they really struggled for that. And I think the team should also not let their hard work and struggles to waste in this way. They loose and this is depressing for the fans and the team as well. But being not negative maybe they take this losses as a challenging situation where they can motivate themselves to do the great and avoid such situation in the next time. Because the team has the potential and they can do they really struggled for. But still the situation is very unpredictable and what exactly will happen is still a mystery and nobody knows about the actual winner.

Arsenal fans are supposed to be confused and doubt if Arsenal will win the league title after their loss to Manchester City in the Carabao cup. Even if Arsenal are leading Manchester City with 9 points, there is need for Arsenal fans to still be in doubt because if Manchester City wins their outstanding match and their match against Arsenal, the point Arsenal will be leading Manchester City with will be 3 points, so you see the reason why Arsenal fans are still in doubt about Arsenal winning the league title this season.

[Volgastallion]

For the second round in a row Totenham Hotspurs just escape relegation spot because the other team there couldnt win against their rival, but game after game their situation is worst and worst, we all can agree that we were expecting to see them winning against Forest and start to disipate the relegation rumours, but no they lose badly and now that rumours are real.

Carabao Cup final did not means that Arsenal can not win the league, Arsenal is the the favourite to win the league title this season, being ahead of other teams with 9 points is not a small achievement, Arsenal failed to beat Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final and it is all understandable, Arsenal made a mistake by not playing the way they played in the premier league, Arsenal fans should not doubt that they are not going to win the league, they have a big chance to win the title.

The only thing that can stop Arsenal from winning premier is Arsenal itself, because Arteta and his boys sometimes behave like they are not a good professional footballers, they lack winning mentality, Manchester City that beat Arsenal and win the Carabao Cup is the same Manchester City that Real Madrid that did not have their complete squad beat home and away and knocked them out from the Champions League.

It is not a matter of favorite for fans or people but their last performance had not been good for years. After on Sunday match with Manchester City which ended up 2-0 against them. I asked sk.e of the core Arsenal fans if they still believe that Arsenal would win the Premier League, they said, they don't know but they only believe they will win because the gap is big which is 9 points from the the second position of Manchester City who beat them recently. And that means they only believe on the points.

I too had thought Arsenal would have won that game, with both sides scoring a goal. but my prediction were way off. This defeat doesn't necessarily mean Arsenal has lost its form and could lose out again on most of their remaining games till the end of the season. I believe Arsenal can still go on and win the EPL this season. They're still going strong in the premier league and looking to finish the season strong and more importantly, in the lead.
Arsenal desperately needs this win and hopefully, they'll finish the season at the top of the table.

Yes, Arsenal is currently 9 points ahead, but their biggest rival Manchester City has played one match less, even if we assume that Manchester City wins this match, we will still see a gap of 6 points with Manchester City. Arsenal only needs to win 5 matches to win the trophy. If Arsenal is able to win these 5 matches, then no one can stop them from winning the trophy.

The biggest reason for their victory in these matches is that Manchester City is currently performing very well and they are currently eliminated from the UCL, so one of Manchester City's goals at the moment is to win the Premier League trophy. However, it is being heard in some places that Manchester City's morale is not that good at the moment and they will not be able to do anything good in the Premier League. But let's see how they can perform on the field.

It's pretty tough at this point to say if Arsenal can eventually win the league because, it's really dicey at this moment at this moment because most fans are still anxious at the moment. Arsenal has been performing good when it comes to the premier League this season. But looking at the point gap which exists and with the number of games that are left to be played Arsenal has much advantage because there is high probability of Arsenal winning the league.


I think that Arsenal approach in the defeat to Manchester City in the EFL cup this weekend was due to the fact that Arsenal had their eyes on the premier League. I believe that was the reason why Arsenal they performed the way that they did.

Perhaps you should also ask yourself with if that result weaken their mindset and spirit, what if the result reminds them who and what they actually are in some seasons ago? We can not justify now whether it will wake them up to win the premier league or it will affect them to the point of losing focus. And if I may ask you what is the essence of being a best club or team in Europe without nothing to show as an award or trophy? We know how Arsenal can be since 3-4 seasons now and they usually fuck up at the end and they should pray Manchester city doesn't defeat them in their premier league game.

What are you saying man?  this is not the first time of Arsene not winning a Carabao Cup so it something that we don't need to worry about or even suprised of because they have used to it. So there's nothing like a mistakes here, a losser remains a losser. Mind you, three's no higher guarantee that Arsenal will definitely win the league title, they have been into this same line for several seasons and they ended up fucking thier fans up, as such no any assurance for them to win this season's premier league. Manchester City did a very wonderful work in that final and they worked towards the victory and it was effectively for them.

Disappointment happens and gunners fans are used to that for a long time. I believe two years ago Arsenal was in the top and they messed up many games and ended up losing everything. This season they are 9 points ahead of Manchester City. Let's consider it as 6 points assuming that City will win the 31th game so they have 2 matches advantage where they can lose or get a draw without losing their spot. Since there is 7 rounds left and let's suppose City will win all of their remaining games then Arsenal should win at at best 5 out of the 7 games. This is not a hard thing for gunners.

Well this is the difference between a team that wants to win and another that was just there happy to be in the final, because I can't seem to rap my head around the whole play as arsenal were completely clueless on what and what to do with the ball. Arsenal just needs to be careful and need to put more seriousness on playing in a final if not they can lose out on everything and end up having no trophy again this season.

Given the way Arsenal are working, I think they won't be without a trophy again this season but we cannot accept that the Premier League's top team lost the trophy to Manchester City in the EFL Cup final of the 25/26 season. However this team should not have any weaknesses as it has already lost a final in the New Year so I believe they will be able to turn their hard work into success by winning either the Champions League or the Premier League. Besides, this club may now be worried about the FA Cup quarter-final match because they will have to fight against Southampton in that match.

Well from the look of things, I do think they have a very high probability of winning the premier league,
It's totally a normal thing for them to be doubt or be scared, because they didn't make it in the carabao cup finals.
So that fear or of not having a trophy will definitely be there.
Nevertheless that doesn't mean they wouldn't win the primer league, it's quite clear that they will win,
The only trophy they might not get is champions league or FA but primer league Is for them.

It depends on how Arteta handles this and gets the players excited again. We always see in the previous few seasons they were always smooth in the early stages for the struggle in the standings and the competitions they live in but the longer the situation fades and it actually backfires when they focus on many competitions at once it ends with results that are not maximized in all these competitions.
That could also happen this season, they are quite smooth even from the start of the season when compared to other clubs but whether in the end their focus will still continue, something like this is still unpredictable.
 
The defeat of City can backfire or can be a whip for them, when Arteta is able to make this a motivation then it is likely that they will be more focused on running the rest of the competitions they participate in so that they can get the trophy, but if the situation is the same as previous seasons the 9-point gap with City still has 1 game remaining they may not mean anything.

Mate. We are not in doubt in winning the Premier league title, this is a competition we are leading the top of the standing, and telling you as an Arsenal fan, even if Arsenal will joke with any competition they are participating in they won’t joke with Premier league competition. They have been dominating from the beginning of the season.

and this is not the right time to out-form or even show any sign of weakness, even if the league more tougher than how it is right now, Arsenal will continue doing great as far premiere league concern this season.
