City have to play Brentford, Bournemouth, and Villa - all 3 of which are still fighting for European places. No easy games there at all. West Ham game is giving me kittens, but then again they're falling apart given how poor they were at Brentford.

West Ham are falling apart but they’re desperate. I see them as the drowning man dragging others down with them. No easy games.

Hammers game could well define three teams' seasons. If we win the Hammers will most likely be relegated and it keeps the league win open for us, if it's a draw then come second, lose and Spurs are relegated, Hammers stay up and City win the league. 

Everton not helping us this morning currently 1-0 down.

Really wish they held on there after being 3-1 up.

Still points dropped though. We can afford a draw somewhere now.

Three for me, and two for them.

The only game that matters is the one right in front of us. A win in regular time tomorrow I beg you. Let's get that place in the CL Final locked in and it's all in on the PL.

Saw it was 0-1 when I left home for work, then 2-1 when I arrived at Petone Station. Normally I’d watch on the train but didn’t want to do it to myself knowing how it was most likely going to go. Walked over the overbridge to the platform and checked again and it was 3-1. Decided “fuck it, I’ll risk doing it to myself.” By the time I got Sky Go loaded it was 3-2 and on a replay of the goal so immediately closed it. Absolutely unbearable train ride refusing to watch but checking the score every 30 seconds. At 90+6 I decided I’d do it to myself again and put it on for the final play and saw the equaliser fly in. 
 
Gutted at the equaliser but we’d obviously have taken the draw. Takes goal difference out of the equation again and three 1-0 wins will do it now.

Anyone keen to watch at the Old Bailey tomorrow morning? The Wellington Gooners group are organising it. Probably going to do it rather than have to either leave home at half time or make up a reason for working from home lol.

Wouldn't it just be an Arsenal thing to do now by drawing or losing to West Ham.

Yep. I'd expect it to be a panicked performance with there feeling like there's more pressure on it. A possible advantage is that after this week's results West Ham need to win so they'll have to come out and try to play and not just park the bus for a 0-0 so there might be a bit of space to attack.

I have exhausted all avenues and got nowhere! Hoping I might get a last minute offer but suspect it’ll be me on the sofa.

Fucking hell it was so tense but we're actually there. Really special being in a pub full of Arsenal fans here too. I might have cried at the full time celebration.
Gyokeres was colossal by the way. As was White tbh.

A bit in shock. Still remember the Lehmann penalty save and then the red card in the final like it was last week.

It's fucking hard to focus at work straight after that but still a million times better than if the result had been the other way.
Also just walked towards the Man City fan in the office while coming back from the kitchen and he was so fast to put his head down to avoid eye contact and turn the corner to avoid even a hello.

I never would have thought that our 11 that clicks so well includes MLS in midfield, and Eze and Gyokeres ahead of Ode and Havertz. I’d be tempted to lock this starting 11 in until the end of the season and rotate a lot throughout the game. New model is surely get a couple of early goals then early subs and shut up shop.

MLS has all the skills and mindset that we need in the middle, Zubimendi does a job but he less forward thinkiung and mobile than MLS.
Think we may have found our newest left sided CM.

While I enjoyed MLS play and hope he keeps improving, I wouldn't say his is ahead of Zubi just yet. I think Zubi is just knackered. He's probably the outfielder who has played the most this season. MLS offers a rotation option, and a very good one at that.

They have some amazing attackers but we have amazing defenders. I'm sure it will be fireworks. But until then, we put it out of our minds and get us a PL title first.

Difficult to see us beating them but guess you never know in a one off. At least the prospect of losing to Kane is gone.
Don't watch many non Arsenal games other than finals given the time difference and general busy enough life, but did watch this. I assume it was also considered boring and not really football at 1-1 and reasonably uneventful. It's almost like 9 goals a game is not the norm or something. 🤷‍♂️

Amazing how much less tense and stressful it is when it's not your team. 😂

Anyone keen for a meet up at the Old Bailey for the final?
