Arsenal can do so much great this season, they still have FA cup and Premier league and UCL to win, so of course losing a league cup doesn't really matter. But the real question is, if they are so close to win all three, and end up winning none, how would that look? This is the type of pressure these teams have to deal with.

And that is why losing the carabao cup would have been extra winning, Arsenal and I still feel like we still. Have chances in other FA and also in the champions league and they should not depend on everything that have been happen if they can put there heads in the game then they should not have any problem winning all this trophies am not sure it will get to that extent we're arsenal will not be win any of the trophies is not possible.

Like City is out of UCL, and they are not winning at league, so if they end up with no wins, and be second, they would be fine, nobody will care, that's what expected of them right now. But if Arsenal ends up losing all three, then they would be laughed at for decades and decades, until they are old people. Hence, it's normal for these players to have stress and panic, and cause bad results.

And now that the city are out of the UCL then we should know that they don't have nothing else to win this season and they won the carabao cup and what else nothing for the, and I don't know why you are talking about arsenal loosing because I don't see that happening I know my club is going to make me proud for sure and we can not be too sure about all this things that are happening that arsenal is going to put everything under control for sure.

The pressure to win something will rest on every Arsenal player and fans now, they will be tested the most for the next seven games in the Premier League. There are only three difficult games for them and of they succeed in beating all three including Manchester City, they we have no more negativity to spread. I do not see them losing this league title

Arsenal right now is very high and I’m very sure that the players will do everything possible to make sure that they lift the Premier league trophy because right now it is only the Premier league trophy that is very certain for them to lift this season so they will not make a mistake of losing the Premier league title because if that should happen, it will be a very big disappointment, so the remaining matches they will do everything possible to Win matches. I’m sure they will win Manchester City when they meet, Arsenal may have lost one trophy to Manchester city and I believe they have learned their mistake and they would do everything possible to correct that mistake.

You are totally correct but it is not about how certain or sure it is for Arsenal to lift the premier league cup this season because it has been certain for Arsenal some seasons ago, as a matter of fact last season it was crystal clear that Arsenal was going to win the premier league but everything changed all of a sudden. The kind of history and record arsenal has kept I believe Arsenal fans will still be doubting the possibility of them winning the league but I hope they change that narrative.

We all know that Arsenal is more consistent than Man city this season and there is also no easy way that Arsenal will loss a match that Man city won't also loss, Arsenal will be very serious in their remaining matches and looking from their fixtures they don't have much difficult match to play, the match between them and Man city will be very interesting this is where the title will definitely be decided nine points is good enough for Arsenal to be champions this season.

And it is clear because Man City lost their way when they received defeat from Man United and after the match they seemed to have started to experience shortcomings in the squad owned by the team coached by Guardiola so that they were eliminated from the UCL competition this season more quickly this indicates that Haaland's role in Man City this season is increasingly visible in his true performance because he is a great striker but in the first season there were no obstacles for him but when entering the second season in the EPL competition he seemed to feel a little overwhelmed meaning that many players from other teams when facing him of course it was so easy to get the ball that's why being great in other competitions is certainly not the same as what the player experienced when he stepped on his feet in the EPL competition because the game played by the team that competed in the EPL was tough but neat.

It's not surprising that people are using Arsenal's past to doubt if they'll win the trophy this season, i don't blame them cause Arsenal has bottled the league straight three times with near miss so it's enough for anyone to doubt. Well I believe that this season would be different cause they play better than other seasons with a more better squad that would make them win it. Well we'll know as time goes cause history has a way of repeating itself with Arsenal.

It wasn't their loss against Manchester United that affect their performance in the matches that they played after clashing with United. If you observe, City is still unable to pick their best form after the massive injuries on the players last season including Pep trauma.

We all thought Pep will make it right this season but up till now he hasn't. This is why you see that City is been defeated by clubs that we least expected. They might see lose more matches because I don't think that the team is stable even though, they were able to win Arsenal in Carabao finals.

In life people are mostly judged by their pasts so you cannot just blame people for not having that full trust for Arsenal again because they fumbled several times in different seasons. They almost did the same thing this season as well but luckily for them Manchester City are not as strong as before so they misused the opportunity and now Arsenal is back comfortable again.

I also believe that Arsenal are winning it this season because Manchester City already came close and didn't take advantage. I believe if they were to overtake Arsenal they would not have let them go far away again. If Arsenal wins the game against Manchester City then surely the league is over because I am sure Arsenal will try not to lose too many games.

[SatoPrincess]

I don't think Arteta deserves this award, not now or whenever, maybe till the end of the season because as this point some awards seems like a trap to mess the opportunities you have as a leading manager on the EPL table. Not that is not good but like the guy said on the second picture, it would be better to be manager of the season because he's going to win the EPL from the looks of things than losing it and becoming manager of the month. Arsenal to me didn't do much last season or should I say since this month, the battle hasn't been easy so it should go elsewhere, maybe to Carrick or the complaining Brighton coach...what's your take on this?

Don’t be a hater. It’s not like he was nominated for the ballon d’Or for managers. I think Arteta deserves the award, even though he didn’t win the Carabao Cup, Arsenal are till top of the league and the champions league and are in a good position to win 3 trophies this season.

The only Arsenal fans I know who don’t want Arteta to win the award are  those who are superstitious and afraid of the bad luck that follows managers after winning MOTM.

[wakier]

I think this is just an exaggeration as I don't see arsenal losing their remaining matches considering how form they are, as for Manchester city I would Say that they are almost losing the race because the point difference is quite far and they don't have enough matches remaining. Arsenal is really in for the premier league title this season if not that they wouldn't have been at the top of the table till this time and I think they deserve it because they have been struggling very hard for some seasons now but all to no avail, but this time I don't see anything that will stop them from wining the premier league title this season.

Arsenal could win the championship this season if they get through their matches against Manchester City and Newcastle United without any problems, which is their current advantage.
There's not much time left in the season anyway.
So Arsenal were leaders throughout the entire season, and that's really not random they were able to do it because they were good, and they will continue to do so for the rest of the season. Everyone is just judging based on previous seasons.

Yes, those two matches could determine Arsenal future a win would guarantee them the title this season. However, beating Man City alone would be enough, as they are the only club closer to Arsenal position. As long as they can beat Man City, Arsenal lead at the top of the table will increase. Even if they lose against Newcastle, Arsenal will remain at the top of the table.

If Arsenal can beat Man City, they should also be able to beat Newcastle, a team not much better than Man City. However, sometimes in football, there is the possibility of results not being as expected.

[tygeade]

Arteta is finally getting the recognition he deserves, for years he failed to win the last one, he always looked good, and yet did not get the trophy and that is why he didn't get any recognition at all, or any acknowledgement that he is great.

For past three years, I have been telling people that being second sucks, but if they fired him, the result would not be being first, it would be being fifth instead, Arteta kept this team higher than it should have been, not lower. He is finally winning the games and also looks like there is a very high chance they win the league now. Nothing is guaranteed of course but it looks like it's going to be possible and we could see how this could be a very good place for them to be in.

The kind of history and record arsenal has kept I believe Arsenal fans will still be doubting the possibility of them winning the league but I hope they change that narrative.

Arsenal was never top of the table at any point last season, so I don't know how you came about the idea that Arsenal where crystal clear on winning the premier league last season, intact Liverpool maintained the top position from the beginning to the end of last season. That's for last season anyways, but as for this season I think Arsenal are definitely going to win this one, because I don't see them dropping 9 points without Manchester City also dropping more, because Arsenal is the strongest team and also the most consistent team in the premier league right now, so let's forget about the Premier League for this season,  because I think it's over already.

Well we'll know as time goes cause history has a way of repeating itself with Arsenal.

I will feel the same the way Arsenal is moving. If this place that Arsenal is staying at the top of the league is where Manchester city are right now, I will assume that there is no any team in the Premier league that will take that place from them but because Arsenal is shaky, unstable and unpredictable, we don't know what they will bring tomorrow and keep us by the neck especially now that it's announced that many of their players are injured.

I don't really know how this happened to Arsenal but how can many players go to injuries because they went for international break. Those that means anytime players go for international visit, it's a risk for them because I don't know how Arsenal are going to win the League with this half players and seeing this now is an advantage for Arsenal features matches, the teams will be gearing up to finish them by all means and maybe one last chance for Manchester City.

[Not your key not your BTC]

We all thought Pep will make it right this season but up till now he hasn't. This is why you see that City is been defeated by clubs that we least expected. They might see lose more matches because I don't think that the team is stable even though, they were able to win Arsenal in Carabao finals.

Sometimes I think Pep Guardiola's coaching abilities are starting to decline when I see Manchester City's inconsistent performance this season. Despite bringing in several quality players in various positions this season, Manchester City's performance hasn't improved; in fact, they don't look like the Manchester City we've known for the past few seasons. Many people still wonder what happened to Guardiola, why Manchester City's performance hasn't improved after bringing in several quality players in various positions.

Honestly i may not have top blame those that are underestimating what Arsenal could deliver this season, all because of their experience, we all know how Arsenal could disappoint even to an extent where you least expected of them, honestly what most gamblers or sport fans do is to first take a road map of their previous performance and use that as a major analysis to what they could probably stand to deliver this current one, although, there is no certainty of maintaining the same failure of time memorial to this time, as things are bound to change and players/teams improve also over the time.

Arsenal is determined to lift the premier league title, I saw a news recently that the coach has called almost all the Arsenal players back from their various countries camp for the international friendly matches and the reason why his doing this is to prevent his players from getting injured in those international friendly matches that are going on, I’m very sure all their focus and attention will be on lifting the premier league title this season and they will do everything possible to make sure that they lift the league title, the remaining matches are matches I expect them to win since most of the matches will be played in their home, the match between them and Manchester City will be a very tough match, but for the fact that Manchester city won them and left the carabao cup the last time they meet I believe Arsenal will do everything possible to win the match to prove a point.

Arteta is finally getting the recognition he deserves, for years he failed to win the last one, he always looked good, and yet did not get the trophy and that is why he didn't get any recognition at all, or any acknowledgement that he is great.

For past three years, I have been telling people that being second sucks, but if they fired him, the result would not be being first, it would be being fifth instead, Arteta kept this team higher than it should have been, not lower. He is finally winning the games and also looks like there is a very high chance they win the league now. Nothing is guaranteed of course but it looks like it's going to be possible and we could see how this could be a very good place for them to be in.

Arteta is a good coach, and Arsenal's problem isn't him, it's the bad luck Arsenal has had with player injuries, especially as the Premier League season nears its end, when Arsenal is leading the table. For example, in the current situation, Arsenal is leading the table, but there are already reports of many key players injured. This will greatly complicate Arsenal's title fight.

I don't know how the Arsenal coach will deal with this injury news. Arsenal needs to win the next two games. The first game will be in the FA Cup; if they win, they could advance to the next stage, opening up a chance to at least win a trophy if they fail to win the Premier League and the Champions League.

So Totenham Spurs sacked Igor Tudor which is a good and a bad decission at the same time, for me Igor Tudor was not a coach for a team like Spurs and i dont know why he was appointed in that positions but in the other hand is difficult to change again the caoch in this difficult situation fighting for relegation is the most difficult thing for a club, so is gonna be really hard for them.

Sure, Arteta is a great manager, but only because he has failed to win trophies for many seasons now, that is why he don’t get recognized for his good work, because people cannot give you the credit that you deserve if you are unable to win a single trophy, despite with the squad that you have. Of course, nothing is guaranteed at this point, because we saw Arsenal at the top for good three seasons, yet they failed to win the league, everybody hope that this season should be better.

We can’t tell if the manager was their problem, since the club was already at their worst situation before they appointed Igor Tudo. Honestly, I don’t know which manager can accept to coach the team at this point, they are only one point above West Ham, they must win their next game against Sunderland, and this is their only chance to escape the relegation.

[bitgolden]

There are talks about Liverpool wanting a few players, Arda Guler from Real Madrid, and Diomande, if Kvara could be possible and many more. After a season of spending half a billion dollars, they are once more looking to get some good signings going for next year as well.

I am not entirely sure where they are getting this much money from, it did not look like they have a magic money tree for a decade and now they are suddenly spending so much every summer. If they do it again, I sure hope they pick Xabi over Arne slot next time.

Well we'll know as time goes cause history has a way of repeating itself with Arsenal.

The failures of the previous few seasons left deep wounds for Arsenal fans, it is natural that many doubt their ability to win the EPL trophy race. However, fans still have high hopes for Arsenal abilities, they also believe that this season there will be a surprise. Personally, I'm still very optimistic about Arsenal abilities because Arteta has a better squad than in previous seasons, and the team's performance has also improved, which will be key for them to win the race with Man City.

The players must have confidence in their abilities, at least they must perform optimally in the remaining matches so that all their efforts since the start of the season are not in vain. Arsenal must change their history by maintaining consistent performance, I think this season is the best time for them because some of their rivals are not in their best form.

[TastyChillySauce00]

This is one of my favorite game to come and i hope Westham can win it. It's caused by i have some money stacked by them. They will play at home, and they can turn things around to leave from the relegation if they beat Wolves. Yet, i don't have big expectation for them to win the game like beating Wolves with massive goals.
If they are just winning it with narrow scoer. I will be so happy with it. The key point is to leaving from the relegation zone, not to batter their opponent.

I remember they were having like 11 points to Spurs and 7 points to forest a few weeks ago, then they're having 1 point gap to spurs. So i believe their mentality is so back. It erases my doubtness to bet on them.
Three points from Wolves are gonna saving them from relegation zone. So we can assume it to fully motivate them to win the game.

In Nuno we believe. Go hammers!!!!!

Sure they can since they're at advantage due to playing at home moreover Wolverhampton is still struggling in the relegation area and don't have any hope of closing the gap if they win, i don't see how Westham would allow them win in their home maybe it could end in a draw but I'm confident that Westham would try to win.

Both of clubs are in the relegation. However, the reason i choose Westham caused by they need only one point to leave from relegation zone. Logically, it must be motivating them to bounce higher in order to hammer Spurs to go to the relegation zone.
I understand Wolves won't let them to get points easily or may be try to drag them to keep on the relegation zone. But i believe Westham's motivation is bigger than it.

So i think Westham to win with at least two goals are possible to happen. So a direct bet on Westham most probably the wisest choice.

I am surprised by this news. Because Igor Tudor was the new manager of Tottenham. He did not get enough time to work on the squad. However, Igor Tudor could not show any positive change in Tottenham's performance. After the arrival of Igor tudor, tottenham played 7 matches and managed to win only 1 match. Tottenham need an experienced manager now. If they can't find an experienced manager, they won't be able  to qualify for the premier league.
