I must have imagine the 3-1 win right before the 5-3 smashing smoking

by Blue Barrett Sat Mar 15, 2014 8:39 pm

You're right. Forgot about that one. Regardless, you've had a poor record against us for about 5 years now. Last time you beat Chelsea was 3 years ago as well. Not to mention Wenger has still never beaten Mourinho. I wouldn't be expecting a win if I were you, but you can carry on.

by Lex Sat Mar 15, 2014 8:42 pm

You're seriously quoting records THIS season? Laughing

It's a free-for-all, anything goes, no-holds-barred orgy of unpredictability. Records mean jack in 2014

You can thank Moyes for that, btw

by Blue Barrett Sat Mar 15, 2014 8:44 pm

^For what its worth, you still haven't beaten United even this season despite their poor form. And we've played twice already this season and you still haven't beaten us(COC). Records are being broken, but not by Arsenal. You know I'm right on that.

by Lex Sat Mar 15, 2014 8:50 pm

I'm sure United fans and Moyes are taking great comfort in their record vs Arsenal this season as they languish in 6th place.

As for the COC, I can only laugh. A game that featured Ryo, Jenkinson, Fabianski, Monreal and Bendtner? Laughing

Neither team took that seriously. And the one league game we played this season finished a paltry and boring 0-0 if I remember correctly.

by Blue Barrett Sat Mar 15, 2014 9:04 pm

Storylines have been different in almost all the matches. At the end of the day, we're talking about head-to-head record and it still stands.

Whether Moyes & United have been shit all season, what we're talking about is your record vs United(haven't beaten them in 6 years, is it?) and it still stands. Same goes for Chelsea.

by Lex Sat Mar 15, 2014 9:05 pm

Well, in regards to Chelsea, if you want to go head to head, don't limit it to the last 6 years, go all the way back to when the records started :coffee:

Arsenal got this

They'll win the double thanks to Lord Bendtner Molenation

I take a tie, but we all know Chelsea will bounce back and give us a good beating.

That was funny in 2013.
In 2014, Bendtner is so desperate to score he'll hump a taxi.

So effectively City lead by four points (one point included for superior goal difference).

That really depends. Is Kompany out for one or three matches?

So effectively City are 2nd until they beat the teams they need to beat.

When will all teams get back to having no games in hand? Or will City have 3 games in hand until the end of the season?

PS wtf is this? Laughing

without ozil we can kiss beating any big team goodbye, because we dont have a mobile striker, he is the only guy that can create something against tough defenses due of his excellent movement. my other hope is ox but i can tell he will get injured soon, all our key players seem to be getting injured.

by McAgger Sat Mar 15, 2014 9:40 pm

Midweek of March 25-26, City will play their postponed game against United. Arsenal will play their against Swansea. Liverpool will play theirs against Sunderland. Everton will play their against Newcastle.

by Jay29 Sat Mar 15, 2014 9:43 pm

City's games in hand are on the 25/03, 16/04 and 7/05, against Man Utd, Sunderland and Villa respectively. The one against Villa is between rounds 37 and 38.

Arsenal's is on the 25th of March against Swansea, Liverpool's is the 26th against Sunderland. Incidentally, we'll have one of the 15th of April as well against West Ham because of the FA Cup semi-final.

by McAgger Sat Mar 15, 2014 9:51 pm

That would fix everyone else's postponed matches except City and Everton who will still have two and one more left respectively.

Everton's remaining pp match is against Palace
City's remaining pp matches are against Sunderland and Aston Villa

EDIT: basically what Jay said.

Hahaha, the scenes at Villa Park today were glorious.

Who wants to win the league?

As a neutral you may think like that.

Going by recent results i'd say nobody does Laughing

Barrett's reaction when we beat them next weekend. Laughing

Seriously though man, I get it we're poor against the big teams and we've find it hard to beat you at home and when you're coached by Mou, but anything can happen. Don't be so sure about it.

If Liverpool win tomorrow it's in their hands.
Atm they look most likely imo.
Can't believe I'm saying this.

by REWB Sat Mar 15, 2014 10:10 pm

against chelsea we would need a huge slice of luck to get a goal, then we can just defend.

Well it can also be argued that it's also in their hands. Matter of fact it already is. Then it just comes down to the Liverpool - City game if Liverpool win tomorrow.

City don't look at their best atm. I can see them dropping points to weaker teams in the league, something I can't see Liverpool doing atm with their good attack and decent balance in their play.
