Looking at your remaining away games and as well as you might be playing you will need to beat some of these City,Spurs, Utd, Everton. Sunderland, W/H.  I doubt you will win three of those. However, others are in a similar position without have Baca to worry about.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

You'll struggle to win three games for the rest of the season period.

Midgetland ffs.

P.S. Please keep LVG forever.

Three for me, and two for them.

So much this. I never thought you would be able to adequately replace Moyes but fair play, you've gone and done it.

Of course Wenger is the perfect fit. Not won the EPL for 12 years, beaten a team in the FA cup that are now relegated and also  a team that are bottom . Add to that all the CL that he has not achieved . Keep him for the next 10 years.

The FA Cup final you mean. 

We beat you, as well as some actual good teams, during those two campaigns.

Martial injured in the warm-up???

2nd time that has happened to you guys in a week, both times key players.

You guys have had the worst injury luck this season, it's unbelievable really. And that coming from an Arsenal fan!

Need you to keep picking us to struggle. Since you posted this bull, we have won three in a row and you have not won any.

Could not even beat arguably the worst Utd side in 40 years. You still have a few tough away games and if you do win the league then you will deserve it.

Well done. We didn't deserve anything out of that - have to feel happy for Rashford even though it hurts losing.

Who woulda thought that as well as spending 10s of millions of pounds to buy a striker from the continent you could also find one in...Manchester? Bonkers.

Great combinations from Varela, Lingard and Rashford. A bit of experience and a bit of youth, pace and enthusiasm. More like United!

And Rashford with some calm play to keep the ball alive for an assist for the third too.Takes the pressure off Depay a bit too. I think he'll come good- some lovely combinations in this game.

What a great day. Keep the good run of results going and I think we can get up to third (at least)

One (or all) of Arsenal, Tottenham and Leicester will drop points and we need to be there to pounce. 

City could not care less about the league and are already looking to Pep's first season.

Not as stupid as you saying we would not win another three games this season. We have won four out of five-- you have not won any in the last five.

 LVG bemoans "cheap" Liverpool goals:

"The penalty for fouling Nathanial Clyne, bought for only 17mill, was laughable ... and the goal by Firmini, bought for only 29mill, was also cheap".

"At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive...

I'll take my chance because luck is on my side or something...

Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand...

Oh Rio, Rio, hear them shout across the land..."
