this leicester side is the closest thing I've seen to the early 90s GG side- I don't understand how any gooner can actually dlag off leicester's tyle of play. They've been absolutely fantastic, some of the knock ons and bits of play from vardy have been superb, kante was superb, beasting the midfield and winning every 50/50. calling leicester a hoofball team is lazy and ignorant at best. how can anyone who likes football say that?

deserved champions, whether you like it or not.

I have never been more indifferent to the result of a game as I am for this one. At this stage, we are at Wenger's favourite time of the season, when the title has long gone, and we can play to 'achieve' a top four finish. I couldn't care less if we lose this, as any positive result will be used by his delusional worshipers as some sort of vindication for this bollox season.

Watching Leicester in their "hoof it up to Vardy" game against Sunderland. It is absolutely scandalous that this shit side is going to win the league. Even Souness said at half time.... "imagine what RM & Barca think looking at this, the top team in the EPL". I like Souness as a pundit, he calls a spade a spade.
. How dare Leicester keep clean sheets and not give away two goal leads? What type of football do you expect Leicester to play?Tippy tappy cant defend football.They were bottom this time last season What they do have what Wenger's pussies don't have.Bottle something you can't buy

Easy stroll for us 3-0.

Don't get too down beat folks. We are still in there fighting for the league title. :D :D
Yes, but there is 'history' between clueless and pardew - so I think we will have to Fight to win this and most likely Clueless will play wally and Le Lampadaire up front and they will be shyte...so a scrappy draw....as the scum move further away (above) us on points... :cry: :banghead:

The first half of the Sunderland game was absolutely awful. I guarantee you Leicester will not be in the top 4 at the end of next season. Vardys first goal today was hoofed up from deep in their half and he out ran the only man defending. Nothing pretty about it.

And I never said they don't deserve to win the league. They do as they've worked harder and been more organized than anybody else. Lets see how they do in the CL.

Why the fuck would we buy bottle, he won't even buy decent players. Do people honestly think that Leicester are going to be a real force from here on out?? The normal pecking order will be resumed next season. Leicester deserve the title this season, they've worked for it and they've earned it but I bet they are not contenders next season. Everyone around them will be better, except us, we'll be the same. Or worse.

I would actually love to see us miss out on top 4, that will be a huge nail in his coffin. We, the fans, do not benefit from CL football. We suffer the same embarrassing defeats at exactly the same time every year and the money generated from CL does not get spent on improving our chances in ANY competition, so why do we care so much if we are in it or not??

CL qualification is Wengers selling point, his ONLY one, I would love to see us finish in 5th. Spin that you :censored: charlatan.

My only hope now is that we catch Tottscum, so Come on United, I don't even care if we don't finish 4th! I don't know how I got to this point, I have always wanted Arsenal to be the highest they can be in the league, but I just don't care. But we must be ahead of that lot.

Get used to it now. 3-0 Tottenham and a 6 point gap, effectively 7 with goal difference.

They'd need to lose probably 3 games before the end of the season and where's that going to happen? Stoke away, Chelsea away, where else?

Another Wenger record about to go and you lot living in London can enjoy the Scum fans lording it over you all summer, ouch :?

I've never really cared about "St Totteringham's Day" though from an Arsenal perspective, so it's not going to bother me that much. 2nd place is just 1st loser to me. If you want to mug off a scum fan, talk about league titles and fa cups, not about who finishes where in the battle of the also-rans.

Triple damn, they are now 3 up! Their goal diff is better by 14 or 15, I'm not sure as I don't think the Beeb have updated it yesterday.

Is it 4 up before I submit this post? :banghead:

Still don't really give a shit if they finish above us. As long as it's in second not first.
